TradeVibes Fan Sighting!

Thursday, May 7th, 2009

Over here at Tradevibes, we love hearing from our users.  It’s nice to hear all the feedback and suggestions from around the world.  What’s even better?  TradeVibes fan sightings!

Case in point - one sighting we thought was too cool to pass up sharing with you all.  Huge kudos to Koronix for sporting the TradeVibes pride over in Budapest, Hungary!

Wish we were there!  The lion looks like it wishes it had a TradeVibes shirt.  =)

Wish we were there amidst the bustling crowds and historic architecture - the lion looks like it wishes it had a TradeVibes shirt, doesn’t it?  =)

Thanks again to Koronix for sharing!

Key People Page and Bios

Thursday, March 13th, 2008

Given the importance of the team in a startup’s success, we enhanced our People page to include a short bio and picture for each person associate with our companies. Here is an example. This is part of the structured wiki so you can update anyone’s bio if you’d like. If someone is associate with multiple companies, the same bio will be used. We also enabled the ability to update each person’s LinkedIn URL field.

For those of you who want to be able to get a snapshot of the entire management team’s bios on one page, we’ve also created a Key People page for each company. It’s similar to what you’ll find on the Management page of most company’s About Us section. You can see an example here.

International Address Support and User Invites

Monday, February 18th, 2008

Although we always knew there would be global interest in TradeVibes, our initial wiki only supported US addresses in the company address fields. Given the increase in non-US based companies being added to TradeVibes, we made the enhancement to allow for non-US addresses. Hopefully, this will make it easier for our users to get a global perspective on companies and competitors.

On a separate note, given the request by some users to invite their friends to preview TradeVibes, we have enabled user invites for our Alpha users. TradeVibes Alpha users can now invite up to five of their friends to the TradeVibes community. If you find the TradeVibes service useful, we would love it if you can invite some of your friends who would also enjoy our service. Thank you for all of your help and contribution so far to the TradeVibes community!
