Collecting Feedback

The site and the application are getting there . Working at PeopleBrowsr, we learnt that users always have the best insights. We asked to our group of very smart students from UTS to come and see us in Sydney's CBD for a full product review. Then we went to meet some cool Stanford guys in California.

Both groups played with the site and the apps. They all reported having a lot of fun, which we're delighted to hear. We had a really interesting discussion with them and definitely came out with some cool ideas.

Time to go back to work, to take PeopleBrowsr to its next version.

Thanks guys.

PeopleBrowsr Facebook Application

"What's your favorite social network?"
That's one of the questions we asked the most.
And guess what's the answer that we got one thousand times: "Facebook".
Facebook has become huge, that's no news.
And, while Twitter is most geeks's favorite site, Facebook is for everyone else.

Userbility and marketing

After all this coding we need to work on making PeopleBrowsr user friendly and fun. We want a broader understanding of the users and what their favorite networks are. We have to start listening and talking to them a lot more. And we need to write FAQs, a blog, something about us and PeopleBrowsr's history.

Upgrade 'Stream' View


Some people are image oriented: 'Gallery' is perfect for them, but some other are text oriented.
Time to work on the third of PeopleBrowsr's views: the 'Stream', a multisource texty flow of posts, photos, videos and tweets on one or several columns.

Move Dev Server To Softlayer

The broadband issue hurt.
We don't want something like that to happen ever, ever again. We've had enough, so we're moving to Texas! Yes, we found our deal overseas.

ADSL Line Goes Down - Stopped For 3 Days

Disaster, shame and fear. The ADSL line went down for three, seemingly endless days.
We could do next to nothing. Plenty of ideas but no way to work on them. Paralysed by a torn broadband.
We felt so powerless, and worked as best as we could, but there was no way to test.
So glad it's finally over. Back on track again
