Speed test shocker: AT&T wins Gizmodo’s 12-city 3G megatest
Thanks for the comprehensive write-up, it was a great read! With regards to the Facebook applications, we've really focused on promoting community with our applications, and as such we reward many communal social interactions (like cheering on other members, or sending them stars as way of support) with points. While you do get a point bonus for signing up, it looks like the majority of your points came from the community -- I can't say it was all me, but I will claim responsibility for sending you one star -- which helped push you up towards 1000 points
I also wanted to bring up one point, we felt really honored that a company like Serena, who is certainly ahead of the curve in corporate strategy on social networks, picked Involver to push their newest campaign (which is actually a sequel to the video that was popular on youtube). They did so because our plug-ins are built to convert views into actual results, which allowed them to use video marketing in a viral way and still keep strict measurement and results to judge ROI.
I hope we can continue the discussion here, and I look forward to sharing new features and abilities with you as we continue to innovate our product.
Thanks Again Eric,
Tyler Willis
Director of Marketing, Involver
