PutPlace benefits from The Tuesday Push

Wednesday, July 2nd, 2008

Damien hits another home run for Startups in Ireland with his Tuesday Push idea. What I love about it was the speed of execution. Met Damien last week at the Darklight Festival, he mentioned the idea (which I whole heartedly endorsed), couple of emails over the weekend to confirm with other key figures that it was a runner. tThe very next Tuesday and we are up and running.

Damien is a exemplar of the “lets not overthink this one” model of working.

PutPlace has experienced a dramatic spike in traffic as a result and the link love is sure to stand us in good stead in the future. So in no particular order, a big shout out to,

If I have missed anyone (these are the sites that Google Alerts reported for PutPlace) please drop me a line or post a comment and I’ll add you to the list.

We are in private beta

Monday, May 21st, 2007

Well we did it. This morning I sent out the first batch of private beta invitations for PutPlace. We expect to roll out invitations each Monday for the next few weeks and hopefully we should have sent out an invitation to everybody who registered to date within the next month or so.Big shout out to John, Darren and Gearoid for their trojan efforts in getting the beta to this point over the last month or so.  Also thanks to our valiant first run testers, Matt, Ivan and Sean.

This first version does backup (Windows only, Mac to follow shortly) as we reckon getting your stuff safe is a priority for most people. We have most of the heavy lifting done to allow publishing to places like Flickr and YouTube as we expect that to emerge in the next month or so.

Please register for the beta if you haven’t done so already…
