Ziteboard is a free online whiteboard with real-time collaboration feature. You can draw on your board using the pen tool and your friends can join your board to work together. Three different colors for the pen can be used to draw on the board in freehand mode.
Unlike other online whiteboard applications, it is easy to use, but it doesn’t come with many features. It has shortcomings that width of the pen cannot be adjusted and eraser tool is not available. However, undo action is possible, and it can be used without sign up.
To save your board and share it with friends, you need to login with your Facebook account.
As per the website, free account supports 1 whiteboard with a maximum of 2 collaborators. However, in my testing, I was able to collaborate with three members.
In the above screenshot, you can see a masterpiece made by me with collaborators using this free online whiteboard.
