Collection Sharing Workflow Proposal for Preview, using the Magic URL

Priscilla asked me to pull together a storyboard sketching out how Chandler users will share collections with Casual Collaborators.

High-level Workflow Sketch

1. Chandler user (Helen the Hub) publishes a collection to Cosmo in Chandler, which returns 2 URL-tickets, 1 for read-write access, a 2nd for read-only access.

2. Helen emails the URL-tickets to share the collection with others

3. Helen's collaborators receive the URL-ticket in their email clients and click on the URL to preview it in Cosmo.

• Depending on which url Helen sent them, they can either view the collection or edit it as well.
• At this point, the workflow forks:
• 3a Helen's collaborator can either log into their Cosmo account (if they have one); at which point
• 3b They will have a choice to either Subscribe to the collection, Not subscribe to the collection, or Cancel the login process;
• 3c If they choose to log in and subscribe, they will log in and Cosmo will automatically select the new subscription in the collection pulldown; OR

4 The Collaborator can click on the Subscribe button

• Clicking on the Subscribe button takes them to a Subscribe page where they can choose a client with which to Subscribe to the share via RSS / Atom.
• The default is Cosmo --> which then prompts them to either Login; OR
• 4a Sign up for a Cosmo account; OR
• 4b If the Collaborator chooses to log in and subscribe, they will log in and Cosmo will automatically select the new subscription in the collection pulldown; OR

5. Chandler --> which presents them with the correct Chandler subscribe URL-ticket and instructions on how to subscribe in Chandler; OR

6. iCal --> which presents them with the correct iCal subscribe URL-ticket and instructions on how to subscribe with iCal

Open issues

• Preview look and feel: waiting for Branding exercise
• Preview chrome / navigation
• Preview login and account sign-up workflow
