Zaadz Beta Madness

Posted on Dec 20th, 2005 by Aeon : Wizard Aeon
Welcome zaadzsters (or whoever you are)

My name is Aaron and I'm the head web developer here at zaadz... Well, actually, you can call me the CEO (Chief Experience Officer) since I do much more than web developing. (I also toss energy balls around the room)

zaadz has been live for about 2 weeks now, so if you're reading this close to the date it was posted, you're one of the lucky souls who can really be called one of the first members of the site that will change the world. More on that later...

In the meantime, notice the little "beta" tag underneath the sparkly zaadz logo at the top of the page. That means that we're still testing things and I happen to be taking full advantage of that fact right now. So if you encounter some bugs or weirdnesses, feel free to report them, but know that we're probably aware of it.

These past weeks, we've been scrambling to get as much done as we can so we can get you guys the tools you need to express yourselves. We'll get to making everything super sparkly a little bit later down the road... and you can't even imagine what kind of sparklies we have planned... muahahahaha

In addition to my blog which will be covering tech development, you might want to keep tabs on Brian's blog. He is the other CEO and does important things like... raise money =D

Well, I just wanted to do my short intro and let you know what's up. We've got lots of things planned but please feel free to let us know what you want to see. You can leave us feedback via that lovely feedback link at the bottom of your screen. You can also leave comments here for me.

I love you and hope to get to know all of you better. seriously...

And yes, I know the delete button in the mail still isn't working

Yo Kelly… good to see you. You’re lookin pretty hot in that pic, btw.

HTML is limited to what you can do with the editor right now. We’ll be adding more options (font, colors, images soon)

Comments should show up above when you post without having to refresh the screen. It’s a new technology called Ajax. Maybe it’s a little sluggish. I’ll see what I can do about that…
