Six Weeks Later...

Wahoa, time does fly when you're having fun. It was about six weeks ago when we set up shop w/this blog and I said the rest of the JotSpot developer site would follow shortly. "In a few weeks," is what I said exactly. Well I'm not sure 6 counts as "a few," but... believe me it's been a busy 6 weeks. Stuff like:

  • Working here on developer.jot.com behind the scenes
  • Trying to keep up w/my two micro-youngsters Ethan and Arielle
  • Looking to hire an amazing technical writer for our developer documentation (scott at jot.com if you know someone)
  • Hackathoning (writeup on #2 still to come...)
  • Talking to more and more of you all every day about customizing JotSpot...

But what I really want to say is that I'm happy to announce that the Jot Developer Connection is now up and running.

What's the Jot Developer Connection?

We created the Jot Developer Connection (JDC) because... that's what the big kids do. No seriously, we've got one basic goal with the Jot Developer Connection:

Quickly connect folks with the info they need to customize and extend JotSpot.

With that goal in mind, we've put a stake in the ground and kicked things off with some basics:

  1. Latest Stuff for Free: Get free hosted JotSpot developer wikis, including early-access to developer releases
  2. Tinkerable Home: We're hanging out in a JotSpot that's open to guests, and fully writable by members
  3. Bunch of Facts: The site hosts all of our developer documentation, tutorials, and other how-to and reference information
  4. Place to Discuss & Share: Yes, we've got Forums. Got a code snippet blog too

So the JDC is for existing users looking to customize their JotSpot. It's also for folks new to Jot. Anyone interested in a better way to collaborate and share using the web. I think of developing with Jot as a "special orders don't upset us" experience, and I personally hope to show you what I mean by this.
