It’s been a fun ride thus far at SPLRG…. We’ve had enough meetings to last a lifetime and know that it’s just the beginning, we’ve been testing and configuring our “make-shift” model in our head (partly why this blog was created in the first place), we’ve learned a ton and we’re still having a lot of fun with it all.

There are a few things that are pretty exciting happening right now: 1. our iPhone app prototype is being built. That’s always a nice thing to be able to say. Thanks to this talented developer. 2. We made it into Round 2, but not quite into Round 3 of New Ventures BC competition, which we are quite proud of (and we learned a lot), and 3. we’re running a small user-test through a Facebook group to check out the conversion of one of the components of the application. And we have over 100 people signed up in Vancouver to play along, so that’s tremendous without really trying too hard yet….

This blog was initiated for a number of reasons. We’ve used it as a space to pass through content from Twitter SPLRGES to, again, test things out for ourselves mainly, and it’s also now a place for us to share and document our “outword” growth. (The inner growth is documented and coming to a rich, juicy book someday down the road.)

Until there’s more to report, head over to Canada Is A Big Place blog and watch Victoria storm her way across Canada this summer, coast to coast to coast!
