This July we hosted a party in the cloud room celebrating the “soft release” of Spokin. The site is still pretty rough around the edges, but we knew it was time to start engaging users and soliciting feedback as we approach a final release in the fall.

Members of our target communities were invited.
An enraptured audience.
Our soft release blurb:
Third Place Technologies invites you to join us to celebrate the soft release of Spokin, our online web site for community-curated networking.
Networking with a purpose.
Spokin allows you to connect with your local communities — your neighborhood, city, or nearby interest groups — so you can work together to get things done. For our “soft release”, Spokin community membership will be by invitation only, and we are inviting friends of Third Place Technologies to use Spokin for community engagement activities and provide feedback to us before we release it to the general public this fall.
Try it out at http://spokin.org! Many of its features are open to browsing, but if you want to experience the content creation features you will need be invited into a community group. Email shelly <at> thirdplacetechnologies dot com for an invitation.
