I love having this feature on my blog because it's an unconventional and fun way to add interactivity with readers. The drawing experience is constrained, which invites people quickly produce a sketch and not worry about quality. And there is a text option too.

Admittedly, I switch blogging platforms every season or so. however, Pika has stood out and stuck so far because it has struck the right balance for me in terms of customization, editing experience, and vibe. I've been writing Markdown since its inception, but I find I prefer Pika's WYSIWYG editor. I realize with blogging, I don't want to deal with Markdown. I know I'm parroting the marketing message here, but that just shows how much the good enough folks have hit the target for me.

It might need some tweaking, but the target area for bringing up the edit UI is pretty small in that case. I think you have to click on a small section below the checkbox :P

The differentiators for me are: 1) super-streamlined card creation and editing. It lets me quickly capture, then move around with ease. No fiddling with appearance or sizes 2) less structure than traditional mind-mapping. I don't always think in hierarchies. Sometimes I have unrelated thoughts that later coalesce. This tool matches that mode.
