Okay so this week was one hell of a week for us. The buildup towards our Beta release, getting the first users in, first feedback, first controversy about autotweets, our Pre-PICNIC event… and then PICNIC08 at Hot 100, Virtueel Platform, our Jailbreaking PICNIC gig and… getting invited by Amazon’s VP and CTO Werner Vogels, on stage at his PICNIC keynote in the main conference hall. It was pure insanity.
We’ve reached D-Day here at E HQ, or should we say E-Day? Pun intended. Tonight we’ll be hosting the AWS Pre-PICNIC startup event with Marvia and we have some cool announcements to make. To give you a little preview, check out the video. Many thanks to Tom Klaver for shooting and editing, the video is just awesome.
We’ll also be presenting E in several spots at PICNIC, making some guest appearances and we’ll basically be on the PICNIC grounds all week. Hope to see you there!
We’re proud to introduce you to our new E website. We launched it this morning and have already received many compliments and great comments about it. As you can see on the website, the launch date of E is very freakin’ soon, so we’re working around the clock to get everything finished. As you might have noticed, E will be supported through the mobile browser on your cellphone. More on that later.
We’re proud to introduce our first event, aimed at startups, designers, deveopers, bloggers and anybody who might be interested in Amazon Web Services. We’ve pushed E into the AWS cloud and visited their HQ in Luxembourg earlier, where we came up with the idea of hosting an AWS event together with the guys from Marvia. This Pre-Picnic event is an informal get together for startups, and we’re organizing one with Marvia again in November, which will be bigger. Until then, try to get your invitation at Pre-Picnic.com!
