Hey folks:

 

I’ve been consigned to my living room in La Jolla for the past 5 months, working feverishly on my own ‘Web 2.0 Startup’.  And now I’d like to share it with the community I benefited a lot from – the SDRUG.  Enter http://www.vibeslide.com.  

 

VibeSlide is a Windows screensaver for UCSD students, that makes it easy to interact with photos & messages (VibeSlides) your friends send you.  Upon signing up, your friends will be able to send you VibeSlides direct to your screensaver, and vice versa.  It's fast too - VibeSlide automatically adds fresh, new screensaver content every 2 minutes.  Let your friends know what you think - feedback is as easy as pushing one key on your keyboard.  VibeSlide is 100% free of adware & spyware, and will not harm your computer.  Even if you have no friends, it stays useful.  You can subscribe to channels that interest you such as the ‘China Channel’, or ‘Hot Bikini Babes’, or even ‘Cute Guys’, and get new pictures sent to your screensaver everyday.  Easy.  Automatic.  And oh-so-much fun.    

 

Why should you care?  Because chances are, your screensaver isn’t doing much for you right now, so why not spice it up?  And as the student leaders you all are, this is a great (free) way of reaching all UCSD students, easily.  Think about creating banners or flyers, then posting them.  Besides the precious time & money this costs, think about this… if students didn’t like what they see, how would you ever know?  VibeSlide delivers student’s ratings on your message every 30-60 minutes.  Find out that 80% of students don’t like the message?  Change it.  Effects are immediate.  On the plus side (in case you still need more!) is the fact that you’re supporting a UCSD graduate, a SDRUG member, and a startup currently operating in a La Jolla living-room.  I look forward to your thoughts on VibeSlide, and I’m anxious to improve it in whatever way you request.  Plus the web-app is written entirely in Ruby on Rails!

 

I know just about 99% of you folks are using Mac, but you can still login to the web app portion with your Mac, as you can still use the web-app without using the screensaver.
