One button to rule them all...

If you read the earlier post about the new browser extension, you will would have realized that we no more have the "Send" and "Save" buttons. The functionality to both share with friends and to save to your activities on Jambool is all available from one button, and one dialog.

There are more changes in the offing -- especially around sharing with friends. Stay tuned.

Toolbar upgrade...

Jambool just released an upgraded version of the Firefox browser extension. For one, it comes with the right Jambool branding. Besides, it is a lot less intrusive than the current one.

When you install the new extension, it will give you the ability to clip your favorite parts of the web, including videos, from the right click menu.



Jambool icon and clip invoker also sits in your status bar at the bottom of the browser, and you can use that to invoke the clipper as well.



Finally, Jambool's extension also lives as an optional button in your browser and you can choose to install this button anywhere you want on your browser toolbar. It is small enough to fit right next to the address bar. This button gives your a drop down menu to jump directly to your destinations on Jambool.

Jambool is in private beta!

We rolled out to private beta on June 1. If you've used Jambool when we first started testing the basic idea back in November, then you'll recognize a lot of stuff you've written to us about. We've been listening. :)

The response to the new release has been heartening -- there's layers of functionality that I'm sure you'll enjoy discovering. When I look around online, Jambool is the most complete and rich online research and collaboration platform. Sure, there are a lot of things we are still learning, but this will never end -- and I hope it never does.

What's next? We are actively looking for companies to partner with -- people with phyciscally separate teams, or companies who look require an online collaboration tool for their customers or for themselves. We'd love to hear from you -- and we'd love to get a chance to amaze you with Jambool's abilities.

In terms of features -- there's a long roadmap already sketched out. First, the basics. You'll see constant revisions on the site, and notes about them here -- I promise to be more dilligent from now on. We rolled out a simple revision yesterday -- you can now upload your own photo to your profile (or you can choose from a variety of hats). One of the immediate things we are working on is simplifying the interface further, better starting pages and more features around your uploaded images, files and videos. Stay tuned!
