Well, now that most of the holidays are behind us and Gryphon 3.0 is finally ready to go (!), it’s gotten quiet all of a sudden. Quiet enough to realize it’s been a month since we posted here, among other things. It’s also quiet enough to be able to reflect for a few minutes on the good fortune we had in 2010.
For starters, we opened a whole bunch of new sites, including Gryphon for UNC’s Daily Tar Heel, UCLA’s Daily Bruin, Colorado State’s Collegian, and here in the Rust Belt, for Grand Valley State’s Lanthorn and Wayne State’s South End. Fotobroker sites opened for LSU’s Daily Reveille, Kansas State’s Collegian and Texas Tech’s Toreador, to name but a few. Don’t take my word for it, though – see the ever-expanding Detroit Softworks client list.
And as I mentioned above, Gryphon 3.0 is ready (and is already out there running on two initial sites). Feedback has been pretty strongly positive for reasons of pure functionality, but we’re hearing good things about how it looks too. We’ll be contacting existing users after the first of the year about upgrading older sites. More on that soon.
In closing, we’d just like to thank everyone involved. We couldn’t have done it without you.
Best wishes to you and yours for a spectacular New Year.
—All of us here at Detroit Softworks
