uberVU Beta 2: what’s in there
Many people have expectations from us. People all over the Web have been talking about us and the beta invite waiting list is getting huge. We’ll be letting a lot more people in very soon, but until then, here’s what you can expect from uberVU Beta 2:
- We’ll support these channels: Wordpress, Blogger, TypePad, Movable Type, Picasa, Flickr,
Webshots, YouTube, Vimeo.- You’ll be able to get your content from all the locations above, edit it, and also post content to all the locations above from inside uberVU
- The blogging platforms are integrated with the video/photo sharing platforms. You’ll grab pictures from, say, your Flickr account, some videos from Vimeo and insert them in your blog post as a gallery directly. You just click a few buttons, we do the rest.
- You’ll see all the comments that your content gets on all the channels mentioned.
This is what you’ll get in the Beta 2, alongside increased speed, fewer bugs, OAuth support, etc.
———–
In the 3 months to come we’re also planning the following:
- Posting comments to the channels directly from uberVU
- Automatically changing your status in Twitter and Facebook
- A much better interface that will be more consistent and have better usability
- Unified search across all your distributed content. You’ll be able to also place our search bar on your blog so that your visitors can search all your public content across the Web
Do tell us what you think of this.

Later Edit: Webshots, Photobucket, Zooomr and the likes will come a bit later (matter of weeks) and will not be part of the Beta 2 launch. I guess I got a bit too excited ![]()


Sounds really cool! You’re promising us an even better interface?

Yes, the current interface looks really cool, but it’s not very consistent across all the application. We’re trying to make it consistent, easier to use and even cooler. We’ll see if we succeed.
