Official Zooomr Blog

Friends, please take a look and listen to the embedded video above. 2008 was actually a great year for zooomr; it was a year that we spent a lot of time working on the back-end, the very core of zooomr.

Now that we have that out of the way and taken care of, we’re steadily approaching Zooomr 09 and can’t wait to show you the vast improvements we’re making to the front-end interface of zooomr.

2009 is going to be a year of great change, and we’re excited to be changing together with all of you.

Let’s change the world.

with love,
kristopher

Friends, thank you for making Zooomr one of the best sites on the net.

It has certainly been a great pleasure sure been a great pleasure building the first unlimited, universal photo sharing site in the world!

Today, we’re we’ve pushed some smaller updates to the site and we’re completely excited about a new version of the site for 2009 that we’ve been building from the ground up!

And even though we’re really looking forward to the new year, we really could use some help from our wonderful community, as well.

In spite of the massive bandwidth bills we have to pay per month, we haven’t set any limits on how many photos you can upload or how big each photo is — we think that it’s great that hundreds of thousands of people to enjoy unlimited uploading for free — but what we’d absolutely love to see are more people going Pro on Zooomr.

Going Pro gives you better support and added features that make Zooomr an even more enjoyable experience and signing-up is a breeze! Simply visit the site below for more information:

I have to thank all of the kind people who have gone Pro over the years; Without their support I’m not so certain that Zooomr would be around today — Please make the difference, we’re counting on everyone’s support for a better Zooomr.

Wishing everyone a safe, fun and productive holiday season!

Warm regards,

Third Thing: Lots of Love

Every day, I feel lucky to have such great conversations with everyone on Zooomr. I am often surprised and moved by the generosity of our users and so it goes without saying that I am very appreciative. Thank-you for making Zooomr into one of the best places on the Internet.

Also, I’ve been mentioned lately in a few major publications in Japan and wanted to share some of that with you.

With that, I’ll try to blog more daily and post more videos about what we’re doing. Things are starting to stabilize, which means that I can spend more time again in constant communication!

With love,

kristopher

Friends, thank-you for your support and warm birthday wishes. Your letters and kindness really made my day. I’ve made a video response embedded below — when you have a moment, please watch it.

Much thanks and love,

Hi friends, there has been a bit of bumpiness on Zooomr recently. This is mostly due to a failure on our part to communicate that we were actually upgrading most of our core infrastructure — but now that is officially over, let’s start to enjoy life on Zooomr again!

This also means that we can get back to building new features and improving the software side of the service.

See you on Zooomr and Zipline!

Back when I was just getting things setup here in Japan, I ran into an awesome person by the name of Ms. Fumi Yamazaki who kindly decided to take a moment and interview me on our direction here.

Today, I was going through my news feeds and saw that she had posted the video we took in late October 2007.

Inside the video, we discuss my passion for helping people communicate, as well as touching on some of reasons why I feel Zooomr will do relatively well in Japan and around the world.

I’ve embeded it below, so please enjoy.

Friends, Only three more hours to go! How are you holding up?? Are you excited? We are!

I’m hanging out with Kunix — we’re doing the last checks now; when we have about 30-60 minutes to go before launch, we’ll go live on Zooomr TV and start a countdown!

With love,

kristopher
