With 1.5 hours to spare we have just issued the first Beta Test invite. That means we meet our Q4 2006 deadline
Phew. More invites coming soon.

Beta Test Begins!
December 31, 2006 – 10:33 pm
Great deal from our web hosting provider
December 24, 2006 – 8:45 am
We’ve been using WebFaction for all the LouderVoice hosting mainly because they come highly recommended by the TurboGears and Python communities (and donate to the TG project). So far we’ve been very happy with the service, performance and ease of deployment. Their recent launch of an API which allows people to script one-click installs of [...]
Our Beta1 should start in the next few days
December 24, 2006 – 8:38 am
The system is up and running solidly for the past few days out on the interwebs. I had hoped to start Beta1 invites today but there are still one or two problems which I really want to get closed before we do. I’m also working on the test guidelines, roadmap and known-problems lists. As soon [...]
Blogger out of Beta but where are the Python libraries?
December 21, 2006 – 9:49 am
It’s great to see the new Blogger come out of beta, it is a big step forward from the old one. But I find it strange that they seem to be deprecating all the old APIs whilst only providing Java, .Net and PHP libraries for the new APIs. I’m surprised that a company that does [...]
You can sign up for the LouderVoice Trials now!
December 19, 2006 – 3:46 pm
We’ve finally put up the email collector on the LouderVoice holding page. If you want to be part of the trials, please sign up.
The plan at the moment is that we’ll be inviting a very small number of people we know into the Beta1 phase in the next few days. This is because we [...]
Firefox Operator Add-On for Microformats
December 16, 2006 – 11:51 am
A lovely new extension/addon for Firefox called Operator has just been announced over at Mozilla Labs. Its basic functionality is similar to Tails and Tails Export in that it detects microformats on web pages and allows you to do “stuff” with them but it looks like the author, Michael Kaply at IBM, has big plans [...]
Did I just see Loic in Waterskis?
December 13, 2006 – 9:56 am
I’m afraid this post is in the same tone as most of the others I’ve read about Le Web 3 - the shark was truly jumped. Did my attendance fee pay for the security for Shimon Peres and the French presidential candidates? Was I at Le Web or Les Grands Buddies de Loic?
Whilst the lack [...]
Un petit peu de buzz pour les Irlandais
December 9, 2006 – 12:46 pm
Electric News has done a nice article about PXN8, PutPlace and LouderVoice attending Le Web 3. I’m thrilled we are in such great company. There may also be a mention in the newspapers tomorrow. Damien came up trumps again for us all.
Don’t forget to say hi at Le Web 3
December 8, 2006 – 9:23 am
The Cork crew are taking an early flight on Sunday and arriving CDG at 13:45. If anyone wants to hook up at any stage, just call me or text me (Conor) on +353-87-9790297. I’m aiming to be at this party on Sunday night and the official one on Monday night. I have to leave early [...]
Integration Friday
December 8, 2006 – 9:19 am
Today is the day the code and the design have to come together. We’ve made great progress this week in figuring out some of the more annoying glitches, not all of which are due to the application code. In particular I have to admit that Wordpress is breaking our hearts with its bloody content sanitization. [...]
