Bango Button release to the wild!

Just made the first “official” release of the Bango Button.  Along with several UI improvements, it adds simple (single-click) button publication/sharing to 18 of the most popular community sites for both the button maker (at button create-time) and the user (at button-click time). 
With the new “Tell a Friend” feature added to the button UI, this should really accelerate button spreading.

We also added 6 new button styles, with many more to come.We also made some changes to the WAP.com page to make button pressing faster and easier.

 

GETTING READY FOR PRIME-TIME

A team of developers has been working over the weekend to upload the latest Bango Button code and it should be going live in the next few minutes.

This is the penultimate version before we go officially “live” on Thursday 15th November.

 It will enable us to make some YouTube videos etc. and preview to some VIP’s

Some new cool features include adding “QR codes” to the pop-up to enable fast pairing,

and really easy integration with many social networks / blogging tools.

Bango button goes into the wild!

Dah tah! The first public release of teh Bango Button, Bango Media backend and the tweaks to wap.com were just uploaded to the Bango servers for all to use.

There are a few known quirks we will fix over the weekend, but we want to enable people outside the initial Bango early access program to play with buttons and we want to learn what they think!

We also want to start briefing selected analysts and business partners about what we are up to, and that means we need the button to work everywhere.
