The Results Are In!

It's taken a little longer than we hoped, but we are pleased to announce the results of our first beta release are now in. That means we're one step closer to a public beta release, currently scheduled for March.

A hectic schedule over Christmas (for us and our testers!) has meant a longer delay than we we'd hoped, but here's a list of just some of the ideas our Beta testers have come up with -- we hope to include some of them in time for the next release.
  • Series ordering. Initially we forwent series in favor of tagging. Well our testers have pointed out that without series they can't put books in the 'right' order.
  • Export to... While no two testers could agree, there was a definite push for exports of your collections and wishlists. Some of the export suggestions included spreadsheet or CSV, XML and HTML/CSS, and upload to any and all of the many online book collections including the Amazon wishlist.
  • Ebay Integration. You know where you can buy secondhand books? We've got definite plans for eBay integration, so you can build or sell your collection on eBay right from The Nexus.
Stay tuned for more information closer to the next Beta release. We're still looking for testers, so if you're interested drop us a line.
