Our Friends @ Synthasite Launch in Alpha
- June 4th, 2007 /
I checked out the alpha (tech preview) launch of Synthasite today. Vinny Lingham and his team have done really great job with it. It is a very powerful web publishing app that is simple, elegant and not overwhelming. You can already pull in widgets from Flickr and YouTube.
Synthasite hits the mark with an easy Ajax-powered interface that is natural to navigate. It’s much simpler than a desktop-based web site creation app, and you can build a site from their built in web building blocks.
Because the site is in alpha, it is not ready for full use yet and they are not guaranteeing that future upgrades may result in lost data, its intended just to get an idea of where they are headed right now. There is a very impressive screencast demonstrating the ease of setting up a new site. Watch it here.
Based on 30 minutes of usage, I am very impressed. Vinny, you guys are on the right track. Keep it up! Congratulations on getting to alpha launch.
There are about 1200 accounts left in the tech preview, go snap one up today.

I signed up for the alpha test as well. It will be interesting to see how this project comes along in the next few months
