Reid Hoffman, founder of LinkedIn once said:

“If you’re not embarrassed by your first release, then you launched too late”

So ashamed as we are, and well aware of all the little quirks, tiny bugs and mischievous UI controls still popping up here and there, we’ve launched the open beta version of Mapness. If you haven’t already registered for an account at Mapness, now would be a good time to do so :). We’d like to thank all of you who already registered and hope you’ll like Mapness. We will be launching a forum in the next couple of days to gather all the feedback and suggestions from you. As for now use e-mail to send us your first impressions and bug reports.

Now that the first beta is running live we will be focusing on fixing and tweaking Mapness for the next 2 or 3 weeks, and then developing it further, also based on the feedback from you, Mapness users. Our plan is to mainly focus on social features, which Mapness is a little bit short on as of now. We also have some surprises coming up so stay tuned for details. We have the technology. We can make it better than it was. Better…stronger…faster!
