FeedDemon 2.0 pre-beta team speaks

by crankygeek ~ January 9th, 2006. Filed under: NewsGator, Software.

One of the best parts of working at NewsGator is that I get to start playing with FeedDemon builds before pretty much everyone else out there. Now we finally get to spread the fun.

Last week, Nick Bradbury opened the doors to a handful of long-time users to get their feedback prior to releasing a full public beta of FeedDemon 2.0 . He also gave them permission to blog about it.

Since I’m so biased, I try to avoid talking publicly about what changes I think need to be in FeedDemon. I prefer to let the customers do the talking. (That doesn’t mean I don’t give Nick my .02, though. ;))

    [...] Well that didn’t take long.  A few links from around the web, most importantly from Nick himself and next thing I know I’ve gone from a top of 16 views per day to 350!  That may not be much in the grand scheme of things but… wow.  I woke up this morning and couldn’t stop smiling after finding trackbacks and comments in my inbox [...]

    Everyone knows the farm team is where they get their recruits :)

    That’s interesting, I’ve never heard of calling it a farm team. Must be an American thing :)

    Unfortunately I’m quite happy where I am, so NG won’t be recruiting me anytime soon :P

    I always forget you’re not “local.”

    aha. I’m familiar with the concept, but didn’t know it was used by software companies :)

    It’s not. That’s just me being witty and failing miserably at it.
