When two or more people are writing or sharing the content simultaneously over a whiteboard, one can see only one piece of data at a time; there can be an option to view minimized tabs of all the notes the user can select an account to view.

When two users are working or editing at the same time, one text goes to one corner, and the other one goes into another corner; thus, it makes the users come to the main page or zoom out a see what the other is writing; there can be a system, to track what others are writing more effectively.
