Mozilla Labs today introduced a new tool called TogetherJS. The service lets you add real-time collaboration features to an existing website.

The tool lets two or more visitors see each other’s mouse/cursor position and clicks, track each other’s browsing, edit forms together, watch videos together, and chat via audio and WebRTC. Again, this is all done on a website or Web application, no native software required.
