Since we launched ScribbleLive a few weeks ago, we’ve been excited to see a lot of people from around the world starting to use it. I built the code from the ground-up to support other languages, but we weren’t planning on rolling anything out so soon. But because of all the great interest, [...]

This can’t be for real, can it?

Yesterday was the first big test of ScribbleLive under load during the WWDC keynote where the iPhone 3G was announced. We burned a lot of hours over the last week getting ready, and I start off with a big thanks to our key service partners.

This week ScribbleLive was mentioned on net@net (about 25 minutes in) by The Amber Mac and Leo Laporte. Not to gush here, and Amber knows this embarrassing truth, but I’m a massive TWiT fan! I try to catch as many episodes of all the series as I can (when I’m not working on [...]

Michael and I decided today that we’re going to try to do everything we can to get ScribbleLive ready for the Apple Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC08) in a couple weeks. I know, we’re insane
