Update And A Surprise For All.

Thanks to some avid fans at Outpacker (Scott Bland in particular), I realized that there hasn't been a blog post since mid-December. Sorry about that, things in the office got hectic and crazy, but we're all still here squashing platform bugs, drinking Red Bull and eating lots of Mexican food from down the street.

Just so everyone knows what's going on: We're in the last stage of our 'in-house beta' and have a few more wrinkles to iron out before we open the flood gates.

I can give you a small peek at part of the "Places" page. On this page you'll be able to discuss trails / parks / resorts...you name it. Been somewhere amazing? Well, you can tell the world about it, share pictures, and create connections all on a single page. You might not gather a whole lot from this image but there are 3 ways to create a new place, point and click, physical address and GPS coordinates. We've tried to make it as easy as possible to add your favorite outdoor locations anywhere in the world:


This is just one piece of the puzzle, I'll show a little more later next week.

I kinda have a big surprise for everyone on Monday. It's a new utility from the Lifefitter sister company StartLike. You'll be able to dive in and Start using it Tuesday, January 27th. The utility ties in extremely well with our active lifestyles and we hope you'll love it as much as we all do. It's very slick, very useful and just plain fun! Check back Monday afternoon for the full scoop on StartLike. I promise you won't be disappointed.

Great work! I can't wait to use it. I'm gonna love that places feature. I'm headin' out to go kayak on Saturday, so I'll take tons of pics to fill up that photo feature.

When you say 'show the world', I'm assuming that you will cover the 'world' - there's a real need for something covering the UK !!!
