Hey Friends! Still working on it — I finally took your advice and had a nice 8-9 hour nap. Thank-you, I feel refreshed and back in action!
Now then, check-out this podcast mentioning Zooomr Mark III (We’re mentioned at about the one minute mark): Link to Podcast. Thanks Information Salad!
Back to work for me!
With love,


Good to hear from you, and I’m really glad you took the advice and got a nap!
game on….
Good to hear you’ve recharged your batteries, looking forward to seeing the fruits of your labour
Good to hear that you are not so tired. Don’t get overworked again.
hooray! sleep! we’ll see it soon enough. i’m looking forward to it.
Just 9 hours? [shakes head]
i was at first saying “yeah i can wait” but can i really?
if my 3g plan was billed by the minute i would be charged so much now just for checking so often.
come on krystopher get back to it, take your time (ive done new system rollout and i know its not easy)
keep up the great work.
go zooomr
Good to read from you… thought that you died from sleeplessness!
Good to hear from you Kris and to learn that you slept a little.
Good luck for the hard work.
Take your time, we are patient
Any deadline prevented?
If you needed all of the colour information from each ohoto, why didn’t you pre-process all of them over the last few weeks, rather than making them the bottleneck in the upgrade process?
Not getting at you, just seems a bit crazy not to…
I have really patience with you zooomr guys and I m refreshing the site every 5 minutes. but a deadline or a mail notifiation when mark III is there would make our life a bit easier
Yeah, a mail notification would be great.
I have already got maaaany new photos to upload =). I guess that zooomr will be under a stress after opening, with all shuterjunkies rushing to upload photos.
Thanks for all your efforts, Kristopher.


And for those asking for deadlines, my take is that the best presents are the unexpected
And, as a (bad) software designer myself, all i can say is that deadlines lead to rush, and if they are not fulfilled they will lead to deception, anger, frustation and to the dark side eventually ;D
Don’t take me wrong, i’m eager to try Mark III, and can’t wait to see the new API, but we must be patient. This is like a friend who were making a present for us, we should wait and thank him when its done, not try to urge him or speed things up
Anyways, the mail notification idea is a great one for those whose health might be at risk
Thank you Kris. Eagerly awaiting Mark III. You guys rock!!
This wait isn’t unusual, Mark II’s release was delayed several delays too.As for mail notifications, just subscribe to the blog rss feed to get your notifications and if you want mail then use a rss to email feature - http://www.google.com/search?q=rss+to+email+&sourceid=navclient-ff&ie=UTF-8&rlz=1B3GGGL_enUS209US209
I was surprised about the fact that a process of processing pictures is keeping the team up - I would have thought this would be a batch/automated process that you just leave and let the system get on with it.
How many days was Mark 2 delayed?
Hey krish waiting for the mark 3 man…
You, u r team and blue bridge rocks…
Guys,
Apart from the note about being a podcast, you’ve both been Radio Silence for 3 days
Come on, give us a note or two on the progress gentlemen, pleeeeeeease!
I agree with Phill.
We all love you, please tell us something!
michele
I concur.
Yes, please give us some news.
What’s the go? I understand the delay and have no problem with it but…
Just wondering why on the 2nd/3rd day it was we are trying so hard to get it out but not going to make it then suddenly 3 days slip by?
Is it a major unexpected problem?
Any E.T.A or we just on unknown time here?
Having worked for a small company, I understand the problems that can come up. However, I also understand how important it is to communicate with your customers. Now, while many of us aren’t ‘paying customers’ exactly, we will be very influential in recommending Zooomr to our friends and family. I really want to recommend Zooomr, but there is nothing right now to recommend.
So, those things being said, is there anything the you guys can tell us? Maybe not an ETA, but how about general status, what’s working, what’s not, etc?
And, is there anything that the Zooomr community can do to help?
seems they are incommunicado
maybe this means they are close or out drinking margaritas!
LOL
