Loving is the feelin now...

So today is a day for a certain someone named Micheal Jackson. Especially if you are near the Staples Center, try using GeoBuzz to share your memories with the MJ fans in your area...

And don't forget the music

Somebody's got a case of the Monday's...

So last week we had the server problem (again, we are sorry about that). But you kids have bounced back nicely, some areas are pulling ahead from out of nowhere in the race for the most buzzes! Some of you have unfortunately gotten caught in some of the "gap areas," which means you probably aren't seeing much action because other people's posts have been lost. But that means you should tell your friends and have them tell their friends and then some more friends and eventually we will all be friends... Maybe?

Anyway, some of us are lucky and there are lots of people around us so we can feel pretty cool. You know what else is cool? Iceland...

Houston, we have a problem...

So when we set up this blog, we said that we would share some of the highs and lows. Today, we have had a bit of a low.

Unfortunately, due to some black magic and a few spells cast by an extremely ugly and horrible witch we have had some server problems. So far, this means that the buzzes have been erased. But that's good! Right? I always liked being able to redefine myself and here is the opportunity to do it on GeoBuzz! Woop!

Ok, sarcasm aside, we are really sorry about this problem. Luckily, this means our secret launch is working. We meant to use this to check for weak spots, which we found! So really, this is like we just won the treasure hunt...

The Buzz

Since the mini (semi secret) launch of GeoBuzz a few weeks ago, things have gone relatively smoothly. Despite a few technical hiccups and glitches (which were subsequently resolved), the number of early adopters signed up for GeoBuzz continues to increase. We would like to continue to get the word out about GeoBuzz and continue to get more people on board.

There was a very detailed write up about GeoBuzz posted today by Nathan Lustig that you can check out at http://www.nathanlustig.com/. This write up describes the ideas behind GeoBuzz and the potential of the platform itself.

I'm excited, you should be excited, and I'm sure the GeoBuzz servers are excited too. Post buzzes and find cool ways to connect with others around you. Don't get discouraged if there are few posts in your area- some one has to start things out and it might as well be you! Check out the activity over the last week in Madison, WI:

Get your city full of "push-pins" and it could be featured on our blog!

Doctor...

So I posted this yesterday and then it was brought to my attention that I put the wrong link up. Fortunately it is still hot here so it's still relevant:

I don't know where you are, but here in Madison it is hot. Real hot, a lot like in this movie...

(Couldn't find the exact scene, so we'll just throw the trailer at you. Great movie, by the way, so get it if you haven't seen it.)

And remember, always do the right thing.

Keep on moving...

So we are moving our way into smart phones across the country. We have a pretty good user base now and we have been getting some valuable feedback, but there still seems to be a problem...

So people have mentioned the fact that they do not see many buzzes in their area. This is where you have to pull some of your weight buzzers, tell your friends! The best way to get more people on GeoBuzz is to spread the word. We are all nice people, I like to think that we have fun. So why would you not want others to have fun with us?

Also, we are trying to get some bloggers on board in reviewing GeoBuzz (they can be quite opinionated after all). So if you know any people that have written about GeoBuzz or might be interest in doing so, let us know! The Interweb is big and we can't find them all...

Now back to work.

On your toes maggots!

Alright, so the first week has been pretty cool! We appreciate all of you getting on and buzzing.
We are going to be making some more changes, that is the fun of this for all of you! You get the behind the scenes view and can see all that we are doing, as we do it. It is a bit like a reality T.V. show...

Anyway, stay alert and on your toes because we are going to be making some more adjustments (some bigger than others). Hopefully it will at least be funny to watch, could be a disaster but everyone loves the reunion shows...
