Viviti is number one!
We made it to number one on the Techvibes Victoria Startup Index for February 2010! Not only did we make it number one in the Victoria list, we also are now in the top 30 Canada wide!
"We've been excited to watch the continual growth of Viviti, and are happy to see our name at the top of the Techvibes startup index for the area. We're got lots of work ahead of us but it's a nice landmark to reach!" says Jerrett Taylor, Lead Developer on the Viviti project. “The timing couldn’t be any better as next week we are launching our API platform, which is the next big step for Viviti.”
We would like to extend a special thank you to all our users for making Viviti such a success!
First new release of 2010!
We have just put the finishing touches on our first release of the year and it's a big one! Our developers have not only been busy improving existing services and adding even better functionality, but have been taking the time to implement lots of great suggestions sent to us by members!
Here's a run down of what we've just made available today:
- 8 new themes!
- Added a popout option for the Audio Player Component. Allow your viewers to listen as they browse!
- Signups and logins are now always done securely over SSL.
- Fixed an issue with recaptcha stopping all comments.
- Fixed an issue causing titles over replaceable images to not be editable, in Firefox.
- Fixed issue with the blogs Atom feed that caused some readers to not display the site url properly.
- You can now announce a blog post whenever you're publishing from an unpublished status.
There's much more of course, and you can get the full list over on our Releases page. One of the more notable things you may find there is the mention of an API for our upcoming Integration Program.

Fantastic fall err.. winter updates!
The snow season has finally come! As some of you may have already noticed between snowboarding and skiing we recently put live a bunch of new changes. Here are some of the more distinguished ones:
- 5 exciting new themes available in multiple layouts (Jungleland, Cerulean Elegance, Fluid Solution, Warped and Business Company Red!)

- Additional spam prevention in the form of optionally setting a captcha to be required in Blog comments.
- Custom date/time format for Blog posts.

post content will be cut off after the break is inserted and the
content will be replaced with a 'Read more...' link that goes to the Blog post.
- Themes with multiple layouts will now let you visually select a layout by selecting an icon in the Page Settings dialog.
- Added icons for layout variations in the theme selector.
- Advanced users can now edit their Robots.txt file.
- Added shuffle and repeat options to the Audio Player Component dialog.
You can see a full list of all changes here.
