A New Virb, A New Hope
A long time ago in a galaxy not that far, far away... We promised that a new Virb was in the works and a beta was near. Tonite, we are excited to announce that the much awaited private beta begins right here - right now. So without further adieu, some ground rules:
The purpose of the private beta is to help us squash bugs and work out any kinks before we go live. It is not a playground - there will be work involved. You will be expected to perform tedious tasks like uploading photos over and over and over, possibly while standing on one leg.
For the first phase of this beta, we'll be keeping enrollment limited to a small, focused group. This team will be responsible for testing out the new Virb back-end, aptly named The Hub. As things progress, we'll open up the front-end (i.e. profiles and customization) and bring in the second, and final, wave of applicants.
When your number is called, you will be notified via email. Along with your call to active duty, we will cover exactly what we need you to test and in which areas we would like your feedback.
I'm gonna stop typing, for I fear the only thing you really want to do right now involves filling out this pretty little form.
May the Force be with you.
P.S. A huge cheers to Teevio, Dave, Rubin and Simmy. Without you guys, this day would have never come. Thanks for all the hard work, gentlemen! I'm having a drink for you - right here, right now!
