Hello world..
The Expo team is very proud to unveil the Windows Live Expo service today. Our public beta will cater to all users in the every location across the US.
To get started on the service, we've produced a nice Flash product tour (thanks Becky!) that outlines all of our cool features. Head over to the homepage
here and you'll find a link for the tour near the bottom of the page.
I wanted to call out a few known issues with the Beta that we've acknowledges and are working on:
- Spaces integration: The new Spaces module will be activated very soon - hold tight..
- Firefox niggles: Yes, we know you can't drag and drop the windows and that the rich-text editing has problems. We already have fixes in the pipeline for this so expect to see it patched shortly.
Anyway, it's been an amazing ride during the last 9 months.. I'll save the "startup in a corporate" story for another blog entry, but all I can say is that I couldn't have wished for a better team to work with. I've included a snapshot of the product development team just after our 9:30AM scrum meeting that we have each morning.
From left to right: Aidyn, John, Doug, Kurt, Garry, Samir, Rob, Paul, Becky and Sonali..
Well, it's time for us to have a beer or two and celebrate this milestone now. However, our work doesn't stop here - expect to see regular updates to the site each month as we keep getting fired up about building cool stuff for people to enjoy.
This is only the beginning...
- Garry and the Expo gang..
