Contest!
So, we relaunched the website, as well as DIY product #1 -- MyBrand, and so.. we're giving stuff away!First off, the fact that there's a point-and-shoot camera, that with 1GB of storage, is under $200 is amazing to me. Maybe I'm getting old, but that just blows my mind. My first 4 computers didn't have that much storage! But we purchased one of these units for each of the employees of the company, and they've worked out great. It's also another one of those "eat the dog food!" things, that usually ends up having some really positive unintended consequences.
So! That being said, YOU can also get your mitts on one of these cameras! Whatcha gotta do? Upload a video and configure a MyBrand player. No, seriously, that's it!
Here's the signup, and the press release is right here.

Mmm.. dog food!
So one of the phrases we've kicked around since our inception is eating our own dog food -- or drinking our own kool-aid. It's been awhile since I've done one of these, and man does the dog food taste great!I think key to any small company's success is it's employees -- ALL of them -- buying into what the company is actually doing. If people don't get, don't care, or don't know about the products, how the heck are they going to make them amazing? I'd expect to see a big wave of posts from the team on the community site in short order.

New Beginnings
Isn't it funny how most times when you push and push, and grow and grow, and race and race, and it pretty much just takes you to the starting line?I'd love to say the redesign of vSocial was a multi-month process. But it wasn't. It was a ten day process.
Let me say that again:
IT WAS A TEN DAY PROCESS
Just like the chevy microsite we pushed out in 3 days, this does nothing but reinforce the power and agility of the platform we've designed and built. I'm more than excited about the new site, and the abilities we've built into this platform, as well as the product suite we're announcing later today: vConnect MyBrand, vConnect Pro Publisher and vConnect Enterprise Community. They each hit a specific market segment, and a specific product segment, all of which are underserved today. Someone fire the gun, we're ready to start the real race. Er, or at least the next one. :)

Ever have one of those days?
You know, one of those days where someone in the same industry as you, started in about the same manner as you, got bought for 1.65Bn in Google shares?Yeah, I haven't either.
Needless to say, today was hectic. Hectic good, though, for a plethora of reasons better stated by our CEO, Mark here.
From my perspective, specifcially, this is *AMAZING* for us as a company. It validates the space, our specific take on it (If Google buys it, why aren't you?) and our path as a company. This week is going to be effing crazy. I love it.
