FilmRiot.com Goes Live!


It's been a long time coming but finally FilmRiot has been released to the public.

There's lots of bugs and general ugliness going on with the site right now but we're hard at work getting things ready for V1.0. We're considering the current offering a public beta launch. As it sits users can set up a user account, publish a project profile and browse our directory of users and projects. There is also a few communication tools that are up and running. Users can comment on almost everything as well as private message each other.

This release is a huge deal for me personally. So far this has been a journey that began with me posting a simple idea to the Cambrian House Idea Warz tournament. Since last November it has lead me and my little family 3500 kms across the country and to a few events and meetings that I previously only dreamed about.

The best part of all is that we're far from done. We're set to go to the Slamdance film festival in a little over a months time. More connection, more stories and best of all more features and functionality to the product. I can't wait!
