The Jamglue Blog

Invite-only Beta

Jamglue is an online community for creating and sharing music and audio. In short, Jamglue is:

• A place to upload and share your music with your friends
• Slick tools for remixing music and audio from within your browser
• A library of music and audio to listen to or mix together
• A rich social network for:
• sharing your music
• discovering hot new artists
• finding cool new people who share your musical taste

For those of you already on the friends and family beta, you may have noticed that you now have 5 invites to share! You will notice them as soon as you log in. We’re really excited about taking this step, and hope that you’ll share Jamglue with people who you think would be interested.

Who should you invite? Anyone who you think would be into Jamglue. The groups we are particularly trying to engage are musicians and younger users (read: the MySpace generation), so if you know enthusiastic users in either category, please invite them to Jamglue!

At this stage, we have 3 major goals.

1. Continue to get valuable feedback from our users
2. Build up the Jamglue community so that it continues to become more interesting, compelling and connected.
3. Build up our content library to the point where mixes practically build themselves. Right now, we’ve got a few great loops and tracks, and we’re counting on our beta users to continue this trend.

Anyway, welcome to the Jamglue beta! If you’d like an invite and don’t have one yet, ping the team and we’ll see what we can do.

Connectivity today

Our apologies to anybody having trouble getting to the beta right now and earlier today- here’s the explanation from our provider:

After further investigation, we have been notified of a large scale fiber cut between Los Angeles and Washington state that almost all major transit carriers utilize. This began to cause routing problems for people all over the west coast on a large scale, and is thus beyond [our] direct control. Major carriers are working to re-route traffic across other links. They do not have an estimated time of restoral for the fiber link, however they are working as diligently as possible to reroute traffic for their customers, so it may reach it’s destination.

Hopefully it’ll be fully cleared up soon!

Friends and Family Beta

This last week we’ve aggressively expanded our friends and family beta, so if you’re a friend or family of one of us, and would like an account, please drop us a line!

We appreciate any comments, questions, or criticisms you have, please send it to feedback@jamglue.com, or post a comment here if you see bug testing as public space performance art (I know I do).
