Scredit Crunch

Recent feelings have been a mixture of excitement and anxiety about Scred. This is the first time we have gone so far in an adventure down product launch lane and if I am totally honest, even I am not sure how it will turn out. All I know is that I find it useful and I will likely always be using something like this, in one form or other. It just makes everything so much easier. I also know that several others agree and are creating transactions regularly. I can only hope that the rest of the world sees it in the same way.

We have very big plans for the future of Scred, but right now we need to focus on getting the basics right. Polishing those rough edges, making it as easy as possible, adding pieces of useful functionality without losing simplicity. Our latest release reflects that philosophy. There is nothing dramatic about it apart from the fact that it is making things better and easier, instead of the opposite, which is often the case with software products. I know better than anyone how coarse it still is, and every effort is being made to develop it towards perfection. I hope the effort is appreciated and I’d like to thank the users for their patience.

We also announced a competition for our members. Every user who manages to get 10 friends to register before New Year will get a cool Scred t-shirt. By cool I mean cool. I dislike most promotional t-shirts as they’re just plain ugly and feel geeky (in the wrong way) to wear. This t-shirt will not be like that at all. It will be neat and stylish.

Additionally the top two inviters will get leather travel wallets to carry documents, tickets, credit cards and cash when flying around the world. Unfortunately Scred isn’t yet accepted everywhere so a traditional old wallet is still a worthy companion.

If you are not yet a member on the public beta site and would like to be, please feel free to email me at setok@fishpool.com and I’ll be happy to send you an invitation.
