Things are progressing very well now after a bumpy start. We determined that the “Feature” was actually a “Bug” and now you do not need the 1 second work around.

There will be a tutorial up later today which will walk you through the entire brief process of putting people on your page!

The feedback has been tremendous with people who “get it” telling me how they plan to use this service.

The current plan is to offer levels of service on a monthly basis to business users. You can use the service for your business and/or provide the service to other businesses.

Plans will be based upon number of clips and playlists, There will also be an “Agency Level” that will allow you to white label the service,

We are also implementing an affiliate program for those interested in promoting the service with a generous payout.

Finally, as we get the B2B plans and levels set up and running smoothly, we will offer a Personal Level and offer, in addition to user clips, generic clips for purchase.

Please leave a comment and give us your thoughts on all this.

While the geniuses at the dev office are fixing some issues (placement, transparency, click through, UI) I added a support ticket system. Once logged in you can click on Support and enter your support issue.

This automated system will help us track and manage tech issues as well as develop a  FAQ and Knowledge base.

The beta invite went well but there were a number of issues that cropped up immediately. All these are minor thankfully but it’s embarrassing to announce a new produc t and have some of it go immediately south.

Lesson there is: Test, Test, Test, and Test again!

My friend Dave Hamilton had a good take on it and said “If it were easy, everyone would be doing it!”

I like Dave’s take on it and hoping everyone is as generous!

Acting as producer with a staff is great, however I can’t just jump in and fix things like I can with straight html. I have no idea about asp so I leave it to the pros. Antony is amazing at getting things organized and taken care of quickly. His team is really stepping up - big time.

All the little bugs mentioned in my email will be fixed by late tonight. Then we can continue to test in earnest.

Today we announced the beta sign up process for people on your page. We had a few glitches as the main player got swapped out with an older version and so we had to add the videos the old fashioned way!

But not to worry, we are on track for a March 1 beta test phase and will be adding people to the beta program as we tweak things and work out the bugs.

The project manager Antony is my right hand guy and he is keeping things moving very smoothly. He and our team of developers are really some of the best people I have ever worked with.

March 1 is also the 1 year anniversary of AskMrVideo.com where this all started. Leave a comment and let me know what feature of the site you are lookig forward to most.
