2012

Dear “Seenies,”

Hey there…it’s been a while. Sorry if it seems like we’ve been a bit absent lately. We never meant to make you feel neglected…quite the opposite, in fact. We love you. We love your excitement and your enthusiasm. One of our favorite things to do lately is “eaves drop” on Twitter conversations you’re all having about our project. The sentiment is overwhelmingly positive and that makes us feel terrible.

Yes, I meant to say “terrible.” The fact that you’re all so great makes us feel terrible. You’re so excited. We’re so excited. But we keep feeling like that parent who continually says to their eager young ones, “Maybe tomorrow?”  First it was August, then it was early Fall, which became late Fall, which turned into end of year.  Yeah, we’ve noticed too…we’re almost two weeks into 2012 and still no SeenTh.at BETA launch. :( :( :(

But PLEASE…don’t fret.

Don’t lose the fire.

Stay postive.  Stay excited.  Stay patient.

I wish I could show you what I’ve seen.  I wish you had the access I have to the energy, vision and goals that are a part of every team meeting.  I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it riiiiiiight….now:

WE ARE MOVIE FANATICS THAT ARE BUILDING OUR DREAM SITE

An soon…VERY soon, you’ll get to be a part of the magic.

Here’s to a great year.  2012 holds a lot in store for all of us.

    Great! For some reason I thought it had already launched and I missed the bus. This makes me happy again. You see that? We just reunited and it feels so gooooood.

  2. Haven’t been this excited about a website launch in a long time.

    I know how it is when projects gets delayed due to various reasons and whatnot. Just don’t wait too long, because hype will always fade eventually.

    You still have time tho. Have full faith in you dudes.

  4. Nate says:

    Like everyone else, I am excited to start using the application. I too am a movie fan.
    I will say that I am concerned by your inability to estimate meeting your requirements and managing the expectations of your fans.

  6. Lara says:

    Can’t wait! Hope it isnt toooo far away :)

  7. Uhhhh … better than christmas … now my “Wait-o-meter” is fully loaded and ready for you.
    And worth it I have no doubt

  8. I will never lose faith in this project – I can only see fantastic times ahead.

    It will be “the maximum beautiful [film site] in the world” – I know it.

  9. Marina says:

    Still excited, no fretting. When it comes, it’ll come. You gotta make it the best it can be. :)

    Even though we’ve had to wait for AGGGGGEEEEEESSSSS :P We’re all still excited as… So you must be doing something right!!!

  11. Anita says:

    No worries! Obviously, launching the site is important (avoid “development hell”!) but I’m happy to wait – getting annoyed about it (which I am not, don’t worry) won’t make it come quicker! I’d rather it took its time and was excellent than rushed and a disappointment, but I can’t see how it could be because it looks like it will fulfil my list-making movie needs.
    Keep going, it will be great!

    It’s better to launch when everything is actually truly ready for it, than to do it prematurely. I really can’t wait for SeenTh.at and I am very excited (keeping track of films I’ve been watching too), I know it will be worth the wait. :D

  13. Peter says:

    Take your time, get it right – I’ll still be here and ready to start!

  14. Maria says:

    I am very excited for this. I really hope for a a movie watchlist feature.
    Ever since icheckmovies deleted 90% of my watchlist, I’ve been frantically searching for a replacement. So far no luck. T_T

    Was wondering where you guys disappeared off to. But good to hear you’re still hard at it and I’m still pretty excited!

  17. Carmela says:

    Still hanging there, excited 100%. :) :) :)

    Thank god…thought I had missed something. Knowing y’all are taking your time to get it right makes me hopeful that the site will be amazing. Keep up the good work! :)
