brimming with confidence

Having successfully launched in BETA mode yesterday, we’ve been given a huge confidence boost by the sheer volume of traffic and positive comments early on.

It’s now becoming clear that BeerChief - the idea - is a winner. The site isn’t perfect by any means, but we’re working on it ;-)

Carrying on from yesterday, we’ve pinpointed over 20 issues that need sorting. Most of these are relatively minor but essential none the less. We’ve sent them off to our development team to have a look at. Check out the in-depth analysis of each problem - that’s what i spent most of the day doing :-)

Myself and Adam have also been discussing, in detail, some major changes. Even though we’re pretty much cash strapped after ploughing over $10k in to this baby so far, it looks like we may be rummaging deeper in to our pockets…

The feedback combined with traffic has given us a real boost early on and it’s forcing us to work harder than ever before. We have no set date for a public launch, but at this rate, it won’t be far off!!

Once we get more members on board, add more content, and thoroughly test out all the features over and over, we’ll probably roll out a ‘version 2′ which will be a more polished site… leaner, meaner and sexier than before with more AJAX and a real emphasis on customization.

Once THAT is thoroughly tested, we’ll take the handbrake off BeerChief and let it shoot off in to cyber space without the BETA label which is holding it back at present.
