I think the general plan outlined in the announcement is still accurate. Beta test in Q2, launch in Q3. So, months.
We still have a few features to launch -- they are detailed in the announcement, some back-end infrastructure to build, and some scale-testing to do. We also need the servers. Note: If your application is not a desktop app, it's not going to be eligible for this first beta due to capacity constraints. -John Kalucki http://twitter.com/jkalucki Infrastructure, Twitter Inc.
