CodePile.net - Useful, beautiful code sharing service

If you're a developer, or an aspiring developer, I imagine you've come across a time when you've wanted to either share some code with someone else, or ask someone else for help with a bit of code you just can't figure out. There are several options to do this:

• You could copy and paste the code in an email or over an instant messaging service like Google Hangouts. The result is ugly to say the least, losing the benefits of monospace type, syntax highlighting, and possibly indentation along the way.
• You could share your screen with a tool like TeamViewer to let them see exactly what you're doing, and even participate. This can be laggy, requires both sides have the service installed, must be real-time, and prevents you from doing anything else while working with your partner.
• You could use a paste-to-share service like Pastebin to send a unique link to your code. This has the benefit of presenting the content in a very readable way, accessible at any time. However, the content is static, and changes need to be communicated back and forth as a series of new links. This can be confusing in a situation that requires a lot of edits, and there's no way to easily show the steps and changes between links.​

Wouldn't it be great if there were a service that preserved my code's syntax and formatting, allowed for real-time collaboration without necessitating it, and had could re-use a single link to point to dynamic content, with the ability to create static snapshots as needed?

Meet CodePile! Designed as a tool to exactly meet that need, CodePile is a simple, real-time collaborative code sharing hub.
