There’s some great news on the Groupvine front. 

Groupvine’s first customer, Wake Forest, created a committee on its Student Government to find ways to integrate the product more deeply into the everyday workings of the campus and its groups. 

Naturally, I’m really happy to see this. 

I’m excited to see where this goes, and to serve as a “moderator” of sorts for helping WFU and all the student groups there get the tools and do the things they need.

It looks like I’ll be on campus October 7 at the SG General Assembly to talk more about Groupvine goodness.  See you there?

There are many things in motion with Groupvine right now, and I thought I’d share a few of them.

• We’re soon going to be looking for some versatile, passionate, high-energy programmers who know their stuff when it comes to PHP, JavaScript, that trendy AJAX stuff, are passionate about building great Web apps, and want to work with a team of energetic people to create something great.  Also, being able to write well is important.  If you’re interested, email scotthurff | at | thegroupvine dot com.
• A lot of people think Groupvine is great, and we want to bring it to as many groups and people as possible.  Right now, we think the quickest way to do that is using things like blogs, talking directly with student governments, Greek and statewide organizations, and making it easy for people to spread the word.  In a short time, the site will also feature some in-depth stories of real people who use Groupvine every day in different ways.  Please comment if you have any ideas or experience on how to spread the word about Groupvine.
• The company has been working behind the scenes on a few important deals which will be announced soon — it’s getting exciting around here!

Update: there are now some testimonials from people using Groupvine now posted. Check them out!

Update II: Oh, and there’s a new, prettier forum now — and one that’s less spam-friendly. This is the best place to get in touch with other people using Groupvine, and it’s a good way to talk with us if there are any problems you have. That way, if someone else has the same problem, they can just read what you posted, for example.
