Heading for May ‘08 SkaDate update

April 17, 2008 – 7:07 am, by Emil @ Skalfa

Long time we didn’t write anything about SkaDate but that doesn’t mean there’s no news in the camp. In fact, A LOT is going on in SkaDate development rooms.

First of all, we are receiving a lot of useful feedback from our customers on the public SkaDate forum. Especially interesting is the feature suggestion section where our customers let us know what they want to see in SkaDate. If you don’t participate yet, there’s a heap of reasons why you should.

This update is going to be all about feature enhancements and we believe it’s going to make life much easier for all our customers and their users.

A list of confirmed changes for the upcoming update is also available. You should hurry to check it out because there’s still some time left to submit what you find necessary.

Our development dept is humming and romping.



WackWall 1.0 pre-alpha Sneak Peek

April 1, 2008 – 12:57 pm, by Emil @ Skalfa

Somehow I feel that April Fool’s Day is a valid date to announce something called “WackWall”. But please take it serious. This is going to be one of the most significant things the company ever created.

WackWall comes to enable you to create your own cool full-featured hosted social network for any purpose (family, friends, work, or special interest). What makes it engaging is the fact that it’s FREE and can be done with a few clicks.

We are currently deep in development and testing and I’m going to keep you updated along the progress. Once there’s something public to play with we will gladly invite you all and come up with a more detailed description and plans for future.

For now let me leave you guessing with only a few screenshots:

Skalfa Ads is a simple banner advertisement rotation management and tracking system.

Current features

- Track statistics for channels and for ads separately.

Simple as that.

Skalfa Ads comes to help with one place to control placement and track statistics.

Skalfa Boards: Run a SkaDate-powered community? Exchange ideas!

February 18, 2008 – 2:57 pm, by Emil @ Skalfa

We are opening up Ideas exchange board for SkaDate-powered sites. We are receiving active response to our feature suggestion section, that proves that there are people around willing to exchange insight and help each other.

We welcome anyone with a fresh SkaDate installation to take part in this action. In best scenario this can bring incredible value for webmasters and a vast source of information for us to see how we can make your life easier.

We are sure there is a lot to share. Things like our recent discussion of membership models are only a top of an iceberg. Promotion, spam issues, interaction stimulation, keeping members active, anyone?

Now, feel free to participate!
