Let me explain ...
Like AOL, Facebook is a walled garden reproducing what is standard and open on the web/internet as a whole. AOL had AOL email, Facebook has html homepages, and RSS/ATOM
But "people" cannot create their own content - they cannot write HTML, host web pages etc. But contenteditable fixes all that - and with the clever Dropbox tie in, anyone can start with a templated page, drag and drop images from their own desktop, (#) and publish themselves.
Add in RSS via Javascript and its all over.
(#) oh yes drag and drop images onto a web page - its soooo cool. Aloha supports it at least.

Is copybar dynamically replacing the content and then next time when the page is loaded javascript replaces the content by fetching the value from copybar CDN?
At least it looks like copybar is not changing the actual CMS database content values. Please correct me if I misunderstood the mechanics.
The problem with dynamic replacing would be: 1) search engines get the old text 2) original CMS editing functionality becomes useless for that specific node.

I can't actually think of a practical use case for the Pro-xx accounts. A fairly simple blog would easily have a 100 assets or more. Even a simple corporate blog would have 100 assets after a few months.
In particular, I'm trying to figure out what your expected use case is for the Pro-20 account ... what kind of site would I have only 20 assets that I want multiple editors to be able to change?
Websites tend to be many asset/many editors or many assets/few editors. I can't think of too many few assets/many editor situations.

- You id="mask" element has a higher z-order than your formatting popup making it impossible to select styles in the demo.
- The blink from the original to the edited content is kind of jarring. Not sure where your servers are, but here from AUS the lag was very noticable.
- This is a peeve I have with all editors: When you select a H1,2,3 etc style the entire block is styled. This is the opposite of what users expect. Instead you should break that fragment out and run your execCommand on it. This way only the selected text receives the style and your users aren't left scratching their heads :)
- Consider adding an in-line editor for in-line images. Popping over a modal editor onmouseup is not intuitive for your average Joe.

(Sometimes I wish people would go back to the golden days of "software as a product" instead of the current "everything as a service" way of selling things... I just wanna pay for it once, include it as a plugin for my CMS and MAYBE pay extra for some kind of support... and yes, I would be willing to pay for an upgrate to the next version too...)
