Proudly announcing Nearbie

It's a very big day when a project launches, when it moves out of the preview phase and actually enters the real world.

This is the case with Nearbie, a project I am very proud to be involved with. My fellow partners in this venture are Dean Heckler and Casey Helbling - two brilliant, talented people.

(Ok, so we didn't go live today, fact is it's been crazy busy so this post is a little late...)

So what's Nearbie? Quoting myself...

"With Nearbie ("NearBEE") you can explore how you connect to people, places and events around you. Invite the people you share history with in real life, and see how they connect to everything else around you through place and time. With Nearbie, when you record history about yourself, you literally become part of the history of your friends, the places you visit, and the events you attend.

Unlike blogging or photo sharing everything you contribute will benefit future visitors regardless of when you added it. Everyone can learn from Nearbie History.

History connects you to it all!"

The real world means real users with real feedback, real questions and luckily real praise. Oh boy, it's such an excilerating feeling to hear what our users think of the project we have worked so hard on.

If you’re already using Nearbie - Thank you! If you're not, take a look when you have a moment. I'd love it if you become part of Nearbie.

PS. We got listed on Emily Chang's eHub a few hours ago.
