Shame on me
for being so silent after we returned from the Web 2.0 Expo. In fact, such
events are really crazy when you have a booth there and hundreds of people stop
by the booth to see what this new name means and what we do at Profy. But no
matter how crazy it has been for us, we are very happy about the results and
the feedback from people – it feels great when you realize that people actually
like the platform from the very first seconds of watching the demo. So I want
to thank everyone who has stopped by our booth to say hi (I still have to send
all the follow-up emails) and to everyone who blogged about the Profy platform
and helped us spread the word.
So here are
the links to some of the blog posts covering Profy during and after the Web 2.0
Expo for those of you who want to read what other people think about Profy:
The new star of the web 2.0 blogging Louis Gray
published a
very detailed and thoughtful review of the platform here. I am especially
happy that he went as far as actually enabling crossposting from Profy to his
main blog (that is based on Blogger.com) and demonstrated how seamless it
really is.
Allen Stern from CenterNetworks continues to support
us with covering our development – he announced the
Profy beta in a new post of his here. I personally am very sorry about
missing Allen at the TechCrunch May 1st meetup in NYC where I
arrived minutes after he left.
After the
conference was actually over, I had a chance to visit Josh Lowensohn from Webware in CNET office in San Francisco to show him the new features
added to Profy beta and this resulted in a great new post about
Profy here.
I was also
interviewed by David Knight and
he published
the interview here for anyone to be able to get more details on our future
plans for Profy. It is absolutely awesome to have such users as David who help
us spread the word about Profy.
I am still
waiting for some more articles to air after I was interviewed by prominent
bloggers and journalists in San
Francisco. I will update this post when further
publications arrive. And of course, I will be happy to list your thoughts on
Profy here as well if you publish them elsewhere – so go ahead and help us make
Profy big!
I also wanted
to mention that during the conference we met some excellent developers from
various startups and established web companies and agreed on prospective
integrations of their products with Profy. I think I’d better keep silent about
this for now as such integrations will be announced by us when actually implemented.
But believe me, the integrations we have in mind will make your Profy
experience even better and will add further exciting aspects to “All Things
Blogging” on Profy.
