Some updates to Whitesoap!

Permalink: 12/05/2007 02:58:00 PM

Playing around with a new beta of the homepage, which provides a lot more useful information from the system. We'll see how it goes -- there's plenty more to come. It's a fun project and is nowhere near the end of its road. ;)

New Whitesoap layout, Mobile17 hits 5 million

Permalink: 4/17/2007 12:35:00 AM

I wish I had more to post but I've been super-super busy! Mobile17 hit the 5-million mark like a week or two ago, which is a fantastic feat. Then, I busted my ass redesigning Whitesoap to bring it out of the alpha period into a beta one; I hope that myself and the other moderators can really make something amazing happen there!

Back to work for me.

A new project, "Whitesoap"

Permalink: 3/05/2007 07:03:00 PM

Paul just wrote an article on this new site I put together called Whitesoap. Special thanks to Larry for providing the domain name. :)

I worked on this for a few months in my spare time, just putting together some ideas I had from several online projects I'd worked on in the past. We syndicate feeds that we like for the pages, and from there its up to both the readers and the editors to choose what makes the pages!

It's like a combo between Slashdot, Digg, Netscape News, and Newsvine... we get all of our news from feeds we like, then our moderators (me, Paul, Dan, Derek, and Nate) choose stories from the pool or stories suggested by visitors. It's pretty simple, and I think it's a cool project.

Check it out, and Digg this!
