When many people share a bunch of files with me, my "My Files" view just becomes a long list of files without context. I propose that a new way of sorting be introduced, sorting by event or reason.

When you share files with people, you would specify the reason, say "Project A". When those people look at their "My Files" view sorted in the "Event/Reason" method, they would see all files related to "Project A" under a "Project A" heading. Subsequent file shares with the same reason, e.g. "Project A", would therefore end-up under the proper heading.

In this way, you would have more information about the context under which the files were shared with you rather than staring at a meaningless list of files.

Imagine having a file system where you can open document files in Buzzword, Google Docs, Zoho, or ANY other online document editor.  With an offline AIR app, we could probably also open documents in OpenOffice and Word (or maybe an offline Buzzword editor).  Acrobat.com can be a central place to store these files and the hub used to open, edit, and share them.  This idea is similar to how Photoshop.com can share pictures with other services like Facebook.  It'll be great start to opening up the web and working together, instead of being isolated and proprietary.

This is a simple idea really, and similar to how TweetDeck integrate TwitPic and YFrog today, for easily uploading pictures and sharing their links on Twitter.

Here's what I envision for this integration between Acrobat.com and TweetDeck:

* First, just as a Twitter user is able to add multiple accounts and add a Facebook account, I would like to see an option for adding an Acrobat.com account in the Settings dialog box.

* Currently TweetDeck enables multiple Twitter accounts and also posting directly to FaceBook. I would like to see an Acrobat.com option next to FaceBook.  Alternatively, an Acrobat.com icon in the toolbar

* Clicking either of these options would bring up the 'Browse' dialog box for uploading any supported file to ones Acrobat.com account.

* An option would then come up for choosing whether to make the file publicly available or private, although on Twitter it's likely that most of the time the user would want to make it publicly available.

* Then just like shari

I noticed the feature for viewing files as thumbnails in "My Files" (http://share.acrobat.com)

Now I feel left out when it comes to buzzword since most of my docs are in there :)

Could we duplicate the thumbnail view in buzzword as well please?

I advocate Acrobat.com to all my clients as a way of storing, sharing and collaborating on content. Most are not experienced in IT so they struggle with some basics that us IT folks take for granted. 

"Why do I have to send an email to let my colleague read the document"? is a common one.

So indeed, why not be able to give your colleagues read-only access to some or all of your files if you want their views? Well, because they might want to change the content and they do that in their own space. So why not use the Acrobat Reader approach and let them put sticky comments on it for you to edit, delete or accept as you see fit without creating multiple temporary documents in other file systems?

I can understand that I might have multiple clients files in my file space and I don't want one colleague or client to see stuff that's not for them, so that takes us into the ACL space, which might imply using a sledgehammer where one isn't needed. Perhaps a simpler, two-level authentica
