Hey all,

A few days ago, I wrote about Broadjam.com’s migration to a new platform, and I want to give you a quick update. The transition is going very well, and we’re looking forward to finishing in the next few days. Most major issues have been resolved, and a few others are being worked on as we speak. To date, we’ve heard from about 25 of our members and we greatly appreciate any feedback that you can offer. Please keep it coming.

One thing you can do to enhance your experience is to upgrade your system to the latest version of Firefox, Internet Explorer or any other browser you might be on. (This will probably enhance your overall Internet experience, as well.)

We realize there are still outstanding issues, and thank you in advance for your patience. Our customer service team is working closely with our developers, so a note to customerservice@broadjam.com will receive a quick response. Or, as always, you can email me at roy@broadjam.com

Thanks again for your support.

Roy

For the past few months, our development group has been rebuilding the foundation of our website - moving it from one platform to another. For the most part, these changes will be invisible to you. Why do we do things like this when the site seems to be running fine? Sometimes I ask myself the same thing…LOL.

But in all seriousness, to keep a competitive advantage, we have to stay on the front edge of new technology, whether it’s behind the scenes or not. Overhauls like this enable us to add new features quickly and efficiently… all of which we’ll be talking about more as the year unfolds. What does this mean to you? We would like to continue to hear your thoughts and suggestions.

We have a lot of great ideas for where we want to take the site, but yours are even more important. If you have features or improvements you’d like to see, I ask you to put your idea in this blog feedback or email me directly at roy@broadjam.com.

Thanks for being a member of Broadjam,

Roy

Last fall, I ran in to Woody Moran at the Audio Engineer Society conference. Woody had recently launched a new company called Namba Gear. Namba Gear makes really nice quality carrying cases for studio gear, laptops, cables and the like. Woody is a long time industry veteran going back to MIDI Man through his days at M-Audio. We’re pretty in to what Woody’s doing with Namba Gear, and we’re excited to be promoting his bags on our site.

You might see Namba Gear’s ad running around our site. Please take a moment to click through and check them out at nambagear.com.

We’re always working on improving Broadjam and lots of cool things are just around the corner. With that said, I would love to hear from you. If you have any thoughts or suggestions, feel free to post them here or send them to me at Roy@broadjam.com.
