BuySellAds.com write-up in the Boston Herald

BSA received a nice write-up in the Boston Herald yesterday (link below).  This is the first time we have received coverage from traditional media, so it was a nice milestone for us.  The ad business isn’t a sexy one, and it’s hard to get coverage.  The angle they took on the story was our size:

“Lean is the word these days for start-ups, and it doesn’t get much more lean than a total footprint of exactly one cubicle.”

I like this angle - what we’re able to do with so few people is what makes me proud about BSA.  But maybe next time they will let me chose the photo :)

Here’s the full article on the Boston Herald.

At last, the release

We finally got the new BSA release out today.  This was one of the most challenging releases we have done since we launched the complete re-write on April 14th, 2009 (I’ll never forget that date).  It was one of those releases where no matter how much we tested there was always something.  The great part is that it’s live now, and the release went fairly smooth.  Most of what people will see at BSA as a result of this release are UI improvements here and there.  But, there’s a mountain of other stuff that is “released”, but not yet public that we will be unveiling over the coming weeks.  We are leaving most of the newness in a “closed beta” state until we can get some production level testing done, dress it up a bit more, and plan more formal announcements and blogs posts about it.  Can’t wait.
