New Beta Release – 0.9.9.5

by Michael Colombo on July 17, 2009

Spheres now has integrated help videos! Anytime a new user comes across an area of Spheres that is empty (links, conversations, files, members, etc.) they will have the ability to play a short video explaining what that area is and how it works.

In addition to a streamlined sign up and invite workflow, and some cool learning assets, we have added some handy features related to file sharing. You can now drag and drop files into Spheres, and you can also see the upload or download progress of files you are interacting with in Spheres.

In the expanded view of Spheres you have a new media player for previewing audio and video files right inside the application which is super handy if you are sharing lots of media with folks. Of course, you can also still preview images inside of Spheres through the expanded view as well. (click the little up arrow in the top right corner of Spheres to see it expand).

We look forward to your feedback on this release of Spheres as we think it is a really important one in terms of helping you easily share Spheres with those you need to, and then help them get in and up to speed quickly.

Let us know what you think!
