Great news from our last trip to US. We met some of you, chat a little, did some presentation and even if exhibiting at the Web 2.0 is a bit tiring, each time we hear about you talking about your Dixero and your experience rewards us to the effort we do all the day long. (want to see us at the Expo? Check our latest pics :) )

As at Javits Center were taking place 3 expos at the same time, we met visitors came from a different expo and interested in a lot of different contents. For this reason, we had the chance to talk a lot with non-heavy users and we deeped into the needs of non skilled users, talking about what is a RSS feed or what is a podcast. This situation has been very useful, because we understood what to show and explain on our website and what are the frequently questions a user have in mind when reading Dixero’s website.

We presented a new selection of public channels we added to the service (Business and Politics, Lifestyle, News, Sport, the New York Times) in addition to the two public channel you already know (Entertainment, Internet and technology). We also anticipated our first contest, but I probably need a separated blog post to write a little about it ;)

After New York, we flow to San Francisco and worked a little in our office in Sunnyvale waiting for the Plug&Play Tech Center Expo. We had a space to talk about Dixero and we heard about other experiences. We met amazing people, asked for feedbacks and exchanged views with professionals and businessmen.

Waiting for the next news, we wave at you with an interview blogtalkradio did to Luca…

As we wrote here, we’ve got new plans for september. The activity is growing, we’ve some issues to work on and we’d like to start the autumn with new energies and resources. In order to do this, we’ve started a new round of investments and we can now announce that we just received a new investment of 1.5 ml of dollars that leads up founds to a total amount of 3 ml. This will let us have the opportunity of increasing quality and focusing on the mobile versions of the application.

As we told you in the last blog posts, we are working hard on quality to offer you a better experience with Dixero. We are now implementing new voices that will read your feeds, you’ll start hear changes in a few days with new channels you create and then we count working again on pronunciation during the next weeks. As the changes will need improvements day by day, all your feedbacks are welcome.
