Introducing Social Whale 2.0

May 27, 2011, Filed under: Social Whale — Nick Papanotas @ 5:37 pm

After a long time of brainstorming, design and programming we finally got to a later stage of development for the new Social Whale. This release is not final and in fact there are still dozens of features to be added.

The purpose of this release is actually to expose our new philosophy and see in action whether this is what community needs.

The basic aspects are:

1. Speed

We had to reimplement the whole thing in order to speed up the client. After all social media is about real time updates so we had to invest a lot of our time to that direction.

2. Channels

This new thing is actually the core of our client. People use to connect with networks, but as social media goes mainstream more people have issues organizing their streams.

Our goal is to connect you with people and subjects of interest and this will happen with the help of the Social Whale Channels.

Still we have a lot of work to do in that direction, but this early release reveals parts of our philosophy.

We would be more than happy to hear from you, so feel free to comment here or drop us a line.

    Nice work! Right now, as I understand, if you want to import a twitter group, you have to create a new channel and select the group to import it. Couldn’t this be more automated?

    At last.. First impressions looks great, faster than the older one. The only problem was that I had to click all my contacts/follower one by one to do the cosmos channel. Now I’ll keep using, testing, tweeting.
    Thanks again and keep up the good work.

    Can you just get to it and explain what it does? Or is it a secret to snag our info?

    Ok it works now.
    For the first time i’ve logged in into the 2nd version of socialwhale after completing the necessary steps I hit “Start” to use the service. After that a screen came up with various info about the new socialwhale and below that was telling “Working” and had an ajax like gif to go round and round. For two days I couldn’t login to 2nd socialwhale it was telling me only “Working”. Now It works, I ‘ve successfully logged in in the 2nd socialwhale interface.
