I didn't realise it had been so long since my last post! We've been busy working on the Alpha version of Georneys as well as packing things up and cleaning our house. That's right, our house is officially up for sale - we're moving to Boulder, CO! We'll have to wait for the house to sell, but hopefully we won't have to wait too long. If we could afford it, we'd go now, but since we have a family to feed, we'll have to wait.
Georneys has made great progress over the last few months. We got Slice of Lime to help us with the layout. If you are looking for someone to help you with your web site, these guys are awesome! We did everything over the phone (they are in Boulder, we are in Tallahassee, Florida), and they made it really easy. We even met them when we went up to Boulder for a TechStars open event last month.
While we're making progress, I wish we could get it done a little faster! We were hoping to have the Alpha done by mid-June, then the end of June, and now it's looking like it might actually be the end of July by the time it's done - although it could be as soon as five days from now. We're just going to put the meat and potatoes into the Alpha version, but the Beta will have all the functionality. Finding the time to work at home after working all day for someone else is difficult at best, especially when you've got a 4-year-old and a 2-year-old vying for attention in the evenings (this all means that I don't get to start working on Georneys until at least 8:30PM on a good day). Let me tell you, I've been keeping TechStar hours for sure!
As the launch approaches, I'll try to post more. I've been focusing on getting the programming done and hooked in with the beautiful UI, as that is far more important at the moment. We will have a very private Alpha as well as a private Beta, but we'll open the Beta up a little more to get some diversity in. We're really excited and can't wait!
