It’s finally here: uberVU Private Beta 2

Posted in News

We’ve been working our asses off for the past 2 months to bring you the Private Beta 2. Well, it’s finally here. We’ve worked on some major improvements over the last version.

Basically, in Private Beta 2 you can:

  • Get your content from, edit it and also publish it on: Wordpress, Blogger, MovableType, TypePad, Flickr, Picasa, YouTube, Vimeo
  • Integrate videos and whole photo galleries from Flickr/Picasa right into your blog posts. uberVU will automatically display galleries for you. You just select the photos to display in the gallery and we do the rest
  • Post an item once and have it displayed on multiple services
  • See all the responses/reactions your content gets on all the services you posted it to

Under the hood we have a much faster sync system and we’re working with OAuth for the authentication/authorization part. This means uberVU is faster and we also don’t store your passwords. If you have a Flickr account, for example, you give Flickr your password and authorize uberVU from inside Flickr. No password whatsoever gets to us. Major improvement!

The best part is that this is only the beginning. In the coming months we plan the following features:

  • Posting comments from inside uberVU. You’ll see the reactions your content gets on all the services you posted it to, and you’ll be able to reply to those comments right from inside uberVU
  • Updating your status on Facebook and Twitter
  • Publishing your conversations to your public uberVU page

We’re also thinking about creating uberVU.org, which will be an open conversational platform based on semantic standards, such as SIOC and FOAF. But more on this intriguing idea later on. For now, we’re just happy we could get you more features that you can play with in Private Beta 2. We’re very, very excited about this.

So, what can you do to help out? It’s easy. Just test out uberVU, send invites to your friends and write us a review if you like using it. Also, don’t be shy and send us your feedback and suggestions to our cool GetSatisfaction account. We love GetSatisfaction and we’re sure you will too.

Looking forward to seeing you inside uberVU!
