Mediology Blog

Today we officially launched our bloggerlines AKA ipals site. With over 100 testers set to go we are optimistic that we will find a lot of bugs reall fast! I know that doesn’t sound like a positive outlook but realistically the more we find right off the bat the better off we are in the long run.

Although this project will be ongoing for the foreseeable future we are excited to move closer to a “true” launch.

With the acquisition of iPals.com we officially change the name of our our stand alone social networking site from Bloggerlines to iPals.

This will have no effect on our beta rollout of the medioblog software which may or may not be released to the general public.

We are happy to announce the acquisition of ipals.com. Per usual we were searching high and low for a domain name of the highest quality. With social networking and blogging being hot topics we certainly had a major challenge. We had been trying to purchase the domain for several weeks so imagine our surprise when we saw it was not renewed and had reached “Pending Delete” status.
iPals.com will be a stand alone website utilizing the medioblog community software. The development is ongoing and a best guesstimate for a release date is sometime in late 2006.

On January 3rd 2006 our months of searching for a gaming hub name ended with the purchase of Gametopia.com

Although the site is not slated for development until January 2007 at the earliest this name was a great acquisition for us. It is hard enough to pick up a decent domain name for a reasonable price nevermind one which is as targeted as gametopia.

A release date of January 31, 2006 has been set for Bloggerlines.com final beta. The last testing phase before the much anticipated launch.

Although the final beta is a big step we know there will be a lot of bugs to fix. Further, this final beta is only for the basic version and we will not be releasing the final version until we have the video and music sections complete.
