Where's AtmoWorks? Future Plans!

Just a quick update on what's going on with AtmoWorks right now. Our main website is down and consequently our email isn't working either... however, we're alive and well and can be reached through our community site (see below).

* We're migrating to a new server within our webhost - unfortunately something went very wrong with the transition and our site has been down a full week longer than it should be. (we're still down).

* We've been creating a wonderful community website... http://atmoworks.ning.com which we're hoping many people will soon join. It's still in beta and we're a long way from completion. Right now - you can easily sign up, create a profile page, write blogs, post photos, upload your own music, post videos - it's a great way to communicate and especially collaborate with other musicians, artists, and listeners. It combines the best features of a social network like myspace, or the old mp3.com, combined with blogging and forums, with easy ways to post your music or photography or art.

* Very soon... when you type in atmoworks.com - you'll see our community site on Ning instead of our store. Our store will be integrated into our community.

* We're revamping the look and feel of AtmoWorks - the websites, logo, etc... We're also upgrading and enhancing our store.

* We have a tremendous list of releases planned for this year - we're finalizing a few artists and will announce them later.

* Many of these releases will be the fantastic ambient music you've come to know and expect from AtmoWorks... on the other hand, as part of our growth in 2008 - we're branching out into other forms of music. Expect to see a few IDM, techno, and even rock artists on AtmoWorks in the future.

* We have a few secret surprises in store...

Looking forward to the completion of your website, John. I'm a big fan of AtmoWorks.

Thanks!

The ning site ( http://atmoworks.ning.com ) is up and working solidly. Ning regularly updates the backend platform and front end features - I've been really happy with them so far. With about 60 users on the site joining the first month - it's been a nice test to shake out the bugs. The only thing we haven't done yet is mainly cosmetic - and then the big piece is integrating our store into the site.

Feel free to jump in. Smile

That reminds me - I need to pop a link up to here... doing that now.
