Hope everyone out there is having a great New Years so far. My name is Clint Dickson,
and I’m the Engineering Director for Gliffy, Inc. We’ve been really busy here getting
the next Beta release of Gliffy ready as well as taking care of our needs to continue
bootstrapping this project. All of you that have signed up for our Beta on our website
will be receiving an email in the not too distant future, giving you access to the
Gliffy Online Diagram Editor. We’re really excited about some of the great features we
have so far, such as collaboration and the ability to publish your ‘living’ diagrams to a
webpage or blog. Some other features to help give your diagrams flair include rich text
capabilities, drop shadows and gradients. See the screenshot below (click to see full-size image).

Guys,
WOW !!!!
This one of the coolest things I have seen on the web in a long time. Great job!!! I hope the end product won’t be too expensive, though I understand the need to make a living :-) I live here in the bay area and work in the technology industry as well as having run my own website hosting and design business for a few years. I spend a lot of time on the internet and have found many interesting and amazing new thing lately but this ROCKS!! I downloaded inkscape to try editing the downloaded svg too and that is really cool as well. With all the hype and universal usage of xml these days I am considering trying to work towards making all my web published graphics in an svg editor. I’ll have a hard time letting go of FireWorks but I can only imagine how cool it will be when there is native support for svg in all the browsers. Hope to meet you guys some day and I will continue to use, and spread the word about gliffy. Again …. GREAT JOB !!
