One Week In
It’s been a great week since launching the alpha dashboard last Monday. Despite the massive hacking of Twitter, our primary data source, we attracted close to 300 visitors with an average hang time of two minutes. Not too shabby!
The Twitter outage gave us some panic, but it also helped us realize the benefits of having an extensible framework. While Twitter content is a major part of our app, we have other very useful APIs plugged in and we’re adding more data sources in the coming weeks.
We’re most encouraged by your feedback. Lots of new users have been quick to share their opinions and most of them have been positive. We’re only two months on the job and we’re going to make things better as we go. Knowing how your user feels just makes the job that much easier (and rewarding). Thanks for a very exciting week peeps!
