Don…

We’ve pushed another new release up onto the site.  Two big changes…

1. A bunch of recommender tuning.  The recommender generates your recommendations on your MyScouta page. As the Scouta population grows, we have more recommendation technologies to apply, so in the Don release we’ve turned on some more.  You’ll probably feel a difference in your recommendations.  Let us know what you think.

2. The front page is a bit more friendly for visitors — there’s more to go and do straight away.

So.. pop back for a look if you haven’t been by for a couple of days.

Scouta and Twitter Sitting in a Tree

Gra knocked together Scouta’s own Twitter page.

If you use Twitter–everyone’s currently communications darling–and you’d like to be sent a random recent Scouta Favorite every so often, then become Scouta’s friend.

If you’re not quite sure about Twitter, then check out a few people’s opinions on Techmeme.

G’Day World Featuring Gra and Rich from Scouta

Graeme and I made an appearance on G’day World this morning (Gra had to stay up until 1am his time), to chat to Cameron Reilly about Scouta. You can hear the show here.

It took us a little while to explain exactly what Scouta is, but it was a fun podcast where Cam managed to get a few digs in about our former podcasting endeavors. I also manage to steal an extra 15 minutes at the end of the podcast to talk about Telstra, and the Australian broadband mess.

We talk about Scouta, what it is, how we raised funds, a few lessons, and the future (near and far) of Scouta.

Thanks for the opportunity to chat Cam, it was good fun. I’m also loving the new hair style.
