Momentous
After what can only be described as an excruciating wait, Chatbear and Bearkey both relaunched today. It’s not all perfect, the user profile pages are a little low on features right now, but as a whole I’m sure you’ll find nothing but improvements throughout the entire system. Plus it all looks pretty, there’s plenty of requested features (finally, a community search function) and gives me a nice, well-written base for future expansion plus a good set of administrative modules for future websites.
The champagne I’ve had sitting in my fridge for the past 18 months will be cracked open in the coming days to celebrate this momentous event and then I’ll start thinking about where to go next. Blogbear is probably the most likely next direction, if only because there’s quite a bit of it already written and sitting around in various states of disrepair. But at the rate at which I’m producing these updates, I wouldn’t expect to see that any time before June 2008.
