German Blogger Prefers OtherInbox Over Traditional, One-Inbox Email
Come out and enjoy a day at Austin’s door64 Tech Fair Thursday April
30th. OtherInbox will have a booth set up and will be giving out some
T-Shirts and demos of our newest features. This is a first-of-a-kind
grassroots event with a great potential for networking and being
involved in what the Austin Business Journal recently quoted as “The
No.1 city for job growth potential”.
The door64 Tech Fair will be at the Goodwill Center located at 1015
Norwood Park Boulevard, Austin, Texas 78753 on Thursday April 30th,
from 11am until 4pm. There will be panel discussions and even a
party following the Tech Fair. For more information and to RSVP for this event please, visit http://door64.com/techfair.
If you follow us on twitter, please @otherinbox and let us know you
will be there. We would love for some of our current users to show
their support by wearing an OIB T-Shirt and would like some of you to
come by our booth to speak to potential new OIB users. Please help us get the word out there about this event and RT this blog.
If you are attending and would like to speak at our booth or help us demo OtherInbox, please email door64[at]peeps.oib.com.
On May 2nd, I'll be speaking on the "Getting your technology right" panel at Bootstrap Maryland.
I'll be at a couple of different conferences over the next few weeks, talking about our experiences building OtherInbox, so please come on out and say hello!
On April 24th-25th, I'll be at JSConf 2009 in Arlington, VA, the world's first JavaScript conference. I'll be speaking about the SproutCore framework we used to build our web application.
On May 4th, I'll be teaching a tutorial on building SproutCore and Ruby-on-Rails applications at RailsConf 2009 in Las Vegas.
On May 7th, also at RailsConf, I'll be giving a talk called "It's Not Always Sunny in the Clouds", where I'll discuss the challenging aspects of building a Rails application using cloud computing.
On May 12th, at B'more on Rails, I'll be giving an introduction to Rails talk called "Beyond the Hype", aimed at explaining what's good and bad about Ruby on Rails.
Later in May, I'll be giving a completely non-technical presentation about improv comedy and the human condition. I'll update this post when the organizers have announced the details.

Dear OtherInbox,
I'd just like to thank-you for your great product!
I am a sproutcore developer, and first heard about your product through
that channel, as you were developing it. I
was immediately intrigued by the idea of having many email addresses to
hand out. I've attempted to do this before with gmail and the "+" (ie myname+otherinbox[at]gmail.com), that failed horribly, as most email
inputs don't accept '+'s.
One of my first reactions when starting to use OIB, was "oh, not
another email to have to check", but I found almost right away, that
you had struck just the right balance in sending out daily summaries,
and notices of the first email to the account. Now I find myself
checking my OIB with out even thinking.
I now have a gmail address that only gets emails that I really need to
action right away, and everything else is neatly filed away for me to
read in my own time. Genius!
I shared this with my work mates who also have lots of email, what got
them interested is the gmail syncing, such a great idea, no need to
have to hand out new addresses to all the sites already signed up for.
I've seen OIB develop from near the very start, and I'm very impressed
with the way that you've handled bugs and feature requests. The choice
of Sproutcore as the tech to use was, by far, the right one!
Thanks for OIB!
A very grateful user,
Geoffrey D.
