Sharing notes that others can edit?

I am able to share notes via email, though is there a way to share a note so someone else can make changes to it on their device or computer?

Thanks.

I currently do that via Google Docs. Have used Evernote for this also.
These allow collaboration despite the platforms used.

yup, me too. Was hoping Notes had that built in also...

Slightly old thread but I just discovered sharing a note via iMessage just sends someone the header with any images...all my links aren't included and it doesn't share as an actual 'note' like i'd thought it would. Glad i tested it by sending it to myself before sending it to anyone else and looking a fool!

Pages does this pretty well. You can either let anyone with a link edit or add a password. I think Apple wants you to use their iWork suite for any collaboration.

Also with android/win/linux?

iCloud.com works with Safari 5, Chrome 27, FireFox 21, and Internet Explorer 10.

If I share the document with my Nexus 5, I can view the iCloud document preview, but iCloud wants me to open the document on a desktop browser. Requesting the desktop site works though.

so it is basicly same as google docs?

Pretty much. It's just up to which interface/features you like better.

The benefit to Google Docs is that they have an app for Android and iOS, but Apple's solution is browser-based.
-That isn't a sentence that I thought I would ever say after the introduction of Chromebook.

it seems to be working the same way.

i tried the browser version to see how it is working. i noticed immediately that icloud.com is slow and all the time i was getting an error message which says that something went wrong and had two buttons: "reload" or "submit the error msg to apple" when i shared the document and used the shared link as a quest to access that file. didnt convince me to start using it...
