Wow! What a day, the Washington Post's Eric Weiss wrote an article that featured my website, http://platewire.com (Washington Post Article Online). I guess the article first went out in last nights' late edition. I was under the impression that we had until this upcoming weekend to launch our new version, nope! At about 2 a.m. I decided to look at our traffic, lo and behold, we had over 10K visitors! So with a quickness I removed certain modules that werent quite ready for showtime , and sans the final design (long story) we pre-emptively launched PlateWire Beta 5.

I'm currently slammed with testing and tweaking all of the new features and functionality, so there will be little sleep for me for the next few days.

I plan to have all features installed and tested by Friday.

Please keep the wonderful feedback coming, we love to hear your thoughts and ideas!

Live long and prosper,

So I received an email inviting me to preview Crazy Egg, something I am positive I did not request to be notified of on launch, how did they get my email?

Anyways, I guess the whole point of this product is to give you a "Heat Map" of where users are clicking on a web page. Has anyone used Google analytics? They do the same exact thing, and better yet they dont slow down your website to a crawl. I'll be honest, I gave this product an honest attempt (Why dear God?) but only to be dissapointed even further. Crazy Egg in nothing but investor hyped fluff that will go absolutely no where.

My 2 Cents.
