Private Beta Launched

Last night, at the 27dinner in Johannesburg, we launched our private beta version to the 50 or so people that remained after Eskom decided to do some load-shedding.

We are very excited about this version and I’ve included a copy of our presentation below so you can get a feel for where we’re going with Beta.

Nic also took the following video of the presentation:

You can view the Beta version here and we’d love to get feedback (good or bad) from you. We’re only going to take the Beta site over to the live server once we’re happy with everything and have implemented some additional changes and fixed all the remaining bugs.

Looking forward to getting peoples impressions of this new major version.

    Hey, that’s a great news.

    I immediately write an article on it, for us, who are unlucky to be in french-speaking Africa ;-)
