After several months of iteration, the product is being launched to invitees only. If you are an employee of a local or state government and want a better understanding of how your services compare to other localities, you can sign up to join the free Beta test by visiting the CiviData website.

The weather is changing and snow is falling… must be time to snag a steezy deal!

After a couple of years selling snowboard gear the old fashioned way, our friends at Solstice Supply decided it was time for something new. GearSlash is as one deal at a time outlet to market high-quality snowboarding gear from cutting edge brands.

Check it out!

In anticipation of 350.org‘s global day of action tomorrow, we are happy to announce that our development has beta launched the Unite Now Activist Network.

This project has been fun and intense. With only 8 weeks to conceive, design and program this social network for activism, the challenge was significant. To jump start the project, we looked at several open source Rails projects, but ultimately decided to leverage TOG, with hosting by Engine Yard and storage on S3.

There are a lot of features still hidden under the hood and we’ve got lots more to do on the site. So stay tuned – we’ll update the project soon.
