It’s been a while since we wrote on this blog, or put out a significant update to Socialthing! But we’re not sitting with idle hands, that’s for sure and we wanted to give you a quick update…

For the last two months we’ve been hard at work at what we’re calling version 2.0. After we released Socialthing! at South by Southwest this year, we had quickly realized a few things that we wanted to change. We immediately started work on the next version, but the hardest part was realizing that it couldn’t be an incremental change, it was going to have to be a major revision.

That’s why we’re calling it 2.0. The things that you’ve come to love are still there, our great UI, ease of use, etc. But a lot of the things that have had criticisms are changing. We’ve fixed a lot of things, added a ton of new features, and all in all, made a much better app. We’ve got some new features that will help with information overload, including new ways of sorting information, hiding it, etc. The upgrade also means that we’ll be able to add new services at a much faster pace, new features on a more regular basis, etc.

We’re working hard to be able to deliver these changes to you. We’ve been alpha testing some of the new features for weeks with great success. ST! v2.0 is really a massive upgrade so we’re really hoping that you like it when it’s finally in your hands.
