Friends and Family Alpha

May 30, 2007

We’re sitting in my condo, working on some minor site details (enhancing the FAQ, figuring out the proper privacy policy).  We just sent out a bunch of emails inviting friends and family to start trying out the site. 

I’m feeling a bit anxious about it – this will probably be the first time any of my friends or family have really seen something that I’ve worked on.  In most of my time at Microsoft working on web platforms and servers, I didn’t really have a concrete, public entity to show to anyone.

Anyway, it’s pretty exciting to have some people other than ourselves using the site.  Hopefully, we’ll get a lot of good constructive feedback.

We’re working from Brian’s house, just getting our blog started. Brian is loading some data onto a test server so we can do some load testing. I am taking care of random administrative details (eg. starting this blog).

Things have been pretty fun so far – we’re hoping things will stay that way.
