VIEWBAR NEWS

Before I talk about Apple, let me give you today’s Viewbar update. As mentioned previously, our delaying item is getting our partners’ ad servers to ‘talk’ correctly to the Viewbar. It requires programming on both their servers and our Viewbar to integrate correctly - not as simple as just signing up for Google AdSense . After that is solved the Viewbar download area will need to be transferred from our test servers to our main site to handle the volume, where we will test it again (when this occurs our main site will be down, but we will give a warning before that occurs). Until the ‘glitches’ in the ad server integration are solved I cannot give a more accurate release date than “days away”.
As to Apple, here was the update from the newswire.
April 12, 2007 (IDG News Service) — Apple Inc. said today it won’t release Mac OS X 10.5 “Leopard,” the next version of its operating system, by mid-June as planned, blaming the delay on the iPhone.
I noted that Apple announced a four month delay of their new operating system (just two months from when it was scheduled to be released). Apple is not a startup. People are currently relying on the Mac and developers have been building new applications for Leopard. I’m not critical of Apple (especially being a mac user myself) – I just wanted to use this latest example of how hard it is to get software release dates known and accurate (even for 30 year companies releasing a new version of a product which is 20 years old).
Your overall patience on the Viewbar release is appreciated. Trust me when I say that your desire to see it released is matched, if not exceeded, by the Shanghai tech team and all of the AGLOCO Development Team
