Successful launch and some great initial coverage

We have gotten some great coverage and feedback on our recent launch.  Thank you to everyone for the kind words and great input.

Below are a few articles and posts on our launch and here is a recent Q&A I did with Northwest Innovation about Gist.

TechCrunch (France) – We really enjoyed trying to figure out what the French thought of what we are doing.

And congrats to our design guys as we were mentioned on CSS Mania and Webcreme which garnered new users from Italy, France, England and Australia.  Gist is going global!

We are very excited about the road ahead and are working through all the beta invite requests.  Our focus now is on a very small beta group and having direct dialog about ways we can improve, so if you have not recieved an invite yet, be patient as the experience you will ultimately have will be much better.  If you are on the list and really want to get in to help us shape the product, send us email (info at gist dot com) or comment on this blog with your reasons.  Keep spreading the word about Gist!
