Yesterday I created the first 50 accounts of the alpha phase of the next Generation of Talk Digger. 50 dedicated users started to use it, test it, report bugs and enhancements.

As expected, some bugs have been discovered; some parts of the user interface had to be re-worked, etc.

However, this is what is great with the crowd: I enhanced Talk Digger, on all aspects, more in 2 days than I had alone in 4 weeks. I am slowly changing all the little things that could possibly irritate users. It is a chance that I had a good starting set of dedicated users to help me.

Really, I am more than happy with the advancements!

In any case, I have to take care not to put my head in the sand because there are so many things to do: it is far than perfect (could it be? I doubt… nothing is perfect in this World!)

I just opened the subscription form for the second round of alpha user accounts. So if you haven’t been able to subscribe for the first round, you only have to subscribe for the second one that should take place by mid-August.
