Facebook Connect


Facebook announced today Facebook Connect: the newest step of Facebook Platform, a data portability tool allowing users to 'connect' one's Facebook identity, friends and privacy to any site.
This will enable users to authenticate to PeopleBrowsr using their Facebook username and password and to immediately see their Facebook friends and data in the Gallery and stream views.
Also, users authenticating to PeopleBrowsr through any other ID will be able to add their Facebook identity to their cross-network web persona.
Thanks Facebook.

@Search Function: So Powerful

Looking for someone?Want to know who's talking to that person, what people say about him or her, want to see their 'PBID'?Good news: that's all public stuff.

Today we integrated a great FriendFinder feature.
Once the user enters @Username in the search box and presses 'GO':
The Grid populates with people talking to or about the searched user.
Passing the mouse over avatars, speech bubbles show the posts mentioning that username.
The 'PBID' appears on the screen, containing a world of info and links to that user's web persona.

Want to search for email? The FriendFinder works also with email addresses.
It's possible to enter any email address into the search bar and get a 'PBID' showing all the online IDs related to that address.

Try it, it's powerful.

Twitter Short Code

'Ups! PeopleBrowsr links on Twitter are ugly!'
That's what I (Priscilla) came out with, this morning.
Why ugly? Because they were long, and they looked messy and they were not clear and way-waaay too big in font size.
After grumbling a bit, the guys made me happy: they built in minutes the Twitter short code.Now, when you post a tweet from PeopleBrowsr, the 'from PeopleBrowsr' link is cute and tiny. Look:
Well done, Team.

Google Launches Application Engine

Google has launched its web application platform. It has a Python standardized platform for apps developers, which is pretty damn cool and may help us scale PeopleBrowsr. We can't wait for them to add PHP and SQL environments.

Joyent Server


Talking to users, we understood how important reliability is, for them. We never want PeopleBrowsr to be down for maintenance, so we're setting up a Joyent server for our preproduction environment.

It's so important for developers to work on a dedicated development server if preproduction is to be kept tidy. Every new release will be updated on preproduction after testing for demos.
