Updates

-Some new features added in
-Launch dates being thrown around
-Fundraising is going to be pretty cool. Expect something so entirely different

How intense is the new iPod? I just downloaded an episode of Lost. I love this industry. In the past 24 hours, I've seen the face of entertainment change. In the past 90 days, the web has advanced so much. 2006 is going to bring forth so many things we could never imagine.

I'm a fan of Jigsaw. Definitely, some cool contacts. My brother's information was in there. lol, he is going to be pissed. I'd suggest it to anyone. If you are a PR person, definitely join on up! I've found tons of editors, that will be useful

I'm feeling a lot better. This medicine is some strong stuff though.

I'm kicking ass in school again, thank God. At least, I'll finish off well, before I take a leave for next semester's road show.

IT IS ALL ABOUT THE ENDGAME

So yesterday, was a really critical and rough day. We had to make some "changes" in our staff. Costs were going to change, maybe alter our budget. Was our launch date going to be pushed back much farther,etc.? Well, after what was the most draining day of the past 6 months (besides when the iPro servers crashed during the beta test at the good ole MMI days). So how has it ended up:
-Kick ass new team to fix things
-New design thats gonna blow everyone's minds away
-One or two new features
-Launching nearly on time

UGather will SHIP ON TIME. Real artists ship, and that is what I stand by. UGather.com is going to BLOW YOUR MINDS.

Congrats to the following:

-Weblogs Inc- congratulations on being bought out by AOL for that nice sum of cash. you guys deserve it!
-XuQa- Congrats on an AWESOME site. If I were facebook, I would watch out. Murti, we have to catch each other on AIM btw.

Thats all.

-Jason L. Baptiste

PS- Leaving to visit Home in New Jersey tomorrow at 6 AM. I CANNOT WAIT. Once this is all over, I'm going back there to live my life nicely and build some more cool things. :-D

What a week

A couple of weeks away from launch so we're going crazy. Pete and I are constantly pranking each other. Hmm, definitely feels like the old days when we were with MMI. we're definitely adding in some new features. The site is almost done. We might even see the close to finished product minus some bugs. Anyone else out there have any cool ideas or features? Let me know...
