myVidster and personal update

Greetings Vidsters!  This is an update on whats been going on with myVidster and myself.  Most of my work on myVidster has been on the backend.  I recently retired a server and replaced it with a larger one.  This was needed to handle the site's growth.  To give you an idea of myVidster's growth here are some stats.

Pageviews (Google Analytics)
August: 162 million
September: 194 million

I have also spent a lot of time on mobile app development and manage to get a 4.0 rating on Google Play!  I know that iPhone users want a native app as well, but I am still undecided on if its worth my time developing a native app and take the risk of Apple rejecting it.  For now use the web app, its has all the same functionality that the native would have with the exception that you cannot download videos.

For personal, I decided to leave the boring Midwest and moved myVidster and myself to Austin TX.  Perfect timing because ACL is this weekend!  Expect to find me at local tech and start-up happy hours and events.

What to expect in the future for myVidster?  Currently I do not know, now that I have a stable mobile app and I have scaled out the site for future growth I now have the time and capacity to brainstorm on new and exciting ideas for myVidster.  If you have any suggestions feel free to contact me or post a comment.

Take care and keep collecting!
