What’s That Sound?

That sound is everyone at Inkubook working diligently to launch a new version of our application. Today the Inkubook office has been reminiscent of the monkey house at the zoo-all busy and crazy but without some of the more unsavory monkey-house hijinks. If you visit the site today, you will most likely see the screen to the right. That is because the site is down as we roll out the new version in preparation for our official launch tomorrow.

In the little more than three months since we did our initial beta launch, we have taken everything that was built in Silverlight 1.0 and rebuilt it in Silverlight 2.0. For us that meant a lot of long nights and a lot of pizza delivery. For our customers, that means better text handling and zippier performance in addition to a glitzier and more attractive UI in a number of areas of the site. We’ll be providing you with more in-depth details once the site is back up and we are ready to announce it to the world, but I figured I should give you a quick heads up here. Hopefully you’ll stop when we’re live to kick the tires and see what’s new.

We’re all very excited to get things of the ground, and I promise we have quite a few surprises up our sleeves that will change the way that you think about your photos and photo books.
