You’ll all quickly learn that I’m no gifted orator, but watch our DEMO 08 launch video anyway. In 5 minutes you’ll get a sense for what blist is:

Wow, can’t wait for my beta invite.
Very curious what the options will be for sharing blists with others. Do users have to have accounts to view, or can it be shared with the general public? Also curious as to how many databases are permitted per account, and the size of the databases….

Well done!
I started using the beta last night, but I’m not sure where I’m supposed to post questions/comments. Sorry to hijack your blog post for this.
Nice demo, Kevin– the product looks amazing. Kudos all around!
Fantastic! I love the approach you’ve taken, very much in tune with the way people “perceive” data.
There’s some really clever stuff going on in there. Can’t wait.
Nice presentation. I’m looking forward to getting my beta key through. This looks ideal for some of my clients.
Kevin-
This looks incredible. It seems you made quite a splash at Demo. Can’t wait to get my hands on the beta.
Cheers,

Kevin — that was really impressive. I hope you make versions of that demo part of your actual website — because in those 5 minutes I got a much better understanding of Blist than I did after 10-15 minutes of navigating the actual Blist site — some help/intro text/videos/screencasts are critical, I think, for your product, because it’s a little bit more complicated than your average web app. I’m now really looking forward to using the product (since I watched the video)!
