OK, we're at 204K today...

Better and better. We haven't yet launched our second wave of marketing for next week's Virtual Worlds conference in San Jose and we've almost doubled in number of references to SceneCaster in a single day (105K to 204K). I can't check what this corresponds to: it's just way too many hits to manually check. I tried restricting the search to English only posts to account for translations of english language texts into other languages, but that only accounted for less than a quarter of the total hits. Guess I'm still wondering what to account this sudden doubling of the number of references to...

We've improved the facebook presence today. After talking to several facebook developers and critics, a unanimous suggestion came back asking us to provide Share links on the scene details page to allow users to easily share scenes with their friends. It's done thanks to Owen, our resident Facebook guru. Users can now share their favorite scenes. We'll be adding the ability to tell your friends about us when you sign up for SceneCaster on facebook over the next few days. It's a bigger change so I'm waiting for our QA team to bless the changes before we release them.

For those of you who ran into issues trying to run SceneCaster in FireFox on Vista, the good news is tha the development team is on it and we hope to identify the source of the problem and release afix shortly.
