Hello, I hope you are doing well; I just wanted to share a few changes @greyeyesads with you. If you recall, I had decided to remove the social toolbar; well, it has made a return. This time around it becomes our personal social connection, including chat, games, useful utilities, and our own alert system. Our sharing is now integrated into each and every permalink post; we have utilized the tools provided by our friends over @ShareThis to accomplish this task with the ease of copy & paste with a few tweaks to the code for individual permalink sharing of your ads on the social web. I think you will like the new streamlined integration of the sharing utilities and the power that they provide for your viral ad campaigns over the social web.
You will also notice that we have opened up the comments on the permalinks, powered by our friends over @Disqus. We weighed our options for comment providers and while the new facebook comments platform looks nice and integrates flawlessly with the facebook platform; Disqus provides integration with many other social platforms which covers the preferences of more people. I also like the ease of integration between the Disqus platform with the tumblr platform, upon which the heart of the greyeyes ads network is built. We feel that this will provide better feedback between the users and customers; the same general forum rules apply, as outlined in our terms of service, anti-spam policy, privacy policy, and general guidelines.
One of the major differences between us and everyone else is that every submission goes through processing by a human being; thus ensuring a better quality of advertising and eliminating the use of spam tactics. I don’t like spam anymore than you do; and this is a complete opt-in/opt-out service. We have provided links to provide a public place for you to report spam and discuss what justifies the use of spam tactics; and other bad practices that aren’t necessarily spam but looked down on within the social communities. I feel that maintaining a human element will not only ad value to our service but also add to the growth of greyeyes ads.
I believe that we have all of the bugs worked out and have a solid system worked out; if you encounter any problems or have any questions, as always, feel free to contact us; you can find links everywhere. I feel that we have started out on a solid platform and look forward to moving development into beta phase by midsummer 2011! I have so many ideas that I want implemented into the platform to give you more power over your advertising; including custom ads designed by greyeyes ads for your brand or company. Keep your eyes on greyeyes ads!
