Update, 07-12-07

Alex has officially quit his job. Excellent, I now have a dedicated co-founder. I'm the happiest man in the house.

We've now started working at Mark's house. It will be Mark's house for the next two weeks (at least). Just to make up for the past month and a bit that I've spent at Alex's and the bucket loads of food I've eaten there.

I wish to say that things are progressing smoothly. They are, so I can say they are progressing smoothly. Everyday presents new unforeseen technical challenges. We are beginning to see why this has never been done before, it's actually quite hard.

Does this change the deadlines or release dates? Absolutely not. One of the things we managed to do with our past project blored was to keep our deadlines, even if it meant trimming requirements and features. I don't care if we release a three legged lama, we are still releasing in August.

Here is a tentative, if not blatantly stupid timeline we have

August 1st - Release for Alpha testers, will now officially be called BETA.

August 15th-16th - Release to members of sign-up list. (Some maybe not all get accounts). Perhaps have some invites for the first Alpha users.

August 31st, 2007 - By this date we hope to have an account for everyone on the sign-up list with maybe some invites.

Does Paul Graham want to invest in us maybe? I have fat f*ck*ng eyes for that ycombinator demo day.
