Lanovision gets press

For better or worse, one of the favorite pastimes of Yale procrastinators has just been taken to a whole new level. Now, instead of wasting a few minutes browsing through someone's iTunes music library, students can waste hours browsing through other students' video collections.

Oh no! What have I created! The Yale Daily News just wrote an article about Lanovision. The article is pretty good, although the picture didn't come out so great. The reporting was mostly positive and accurate, though she did confuse iTunes with OurTunes at one point. She also got a quote from the director of academic media and technology who, "said that he had not yet heard of the program but was pleased to see students experimenting with technology." That's good to hear. Lanovision has been rocking since I emailed all of Morse College on Saturday. It's had over 80 downloads, and has been averaging around 35 unique users per day. That comes out to about 20% of the Morsels on the network who have Windows. Not bad at all. Now I just wonder how many hits lanovision.com will get tomorrow . . .
