I was recently interviewed by TechCrunch's Andrew Keen discussing my startup, Vidquik. I didn't sound too bad for having two plastic tubes up my nose and on painkillers (two days after my septoplasty). Just a mix of Kermit and Darth Vader :)

Vidquik Beta is Live!
Our beta is live! Well, it’s been alive for a few weeks now, but our blog gets the standard blog treatment among social media. Twitter and Facebook get much more attention hence the delay in posting this announcement on our blog.
As a recap, on September 13th, 2011 we launched our free one-to-one web conferencing service, which is video plus online presentation sharing, at DEMO, the prestigious launch conference in Silicon Valley.
There was great confirmation from people who were seeking an easy-to-use web conferencing solution and along the way we garnered some great press:
“DemoFall 2011: Top 5 New Techs I’d use” IEEE Spectrum
“The 15 Most Intriguing Pitches from DEMO Fall 2011″ Network World
“Vidquik tries to disrupt online meetings with free 1-to-1 web conferencing” VentureBeat
You can read more news clips from our Facebook page here. We also revealed our strategy and product direction, which is to focus on enhancing sales productivity and providing salespeople powerful but easy-to-use tools related to our web conferencing platform.
Vidquik is not focused on the collaboration space and providing tools to enhance corporate communications. We are focused on increasing sales productivity and helping salespeople close deals, so as we look towards our official launch in November 2011 we ask for your feedback and any recommendations you might have for our product. We appreciate your continued support and help!

New Web Conferencing Platform! Vidquik Alpha Launches!
My recent side project, Vidquik, is in alpha. So we need to work out the kinks and polish it up before our wider beta launch. We're going to launch an easy-to-use WebEx / GoToMeeting (no download, no registration necessarily) next month, but for now it's just the video chat. Would appreciate everyone's help in testing it out, reporting bugs and telling us what sucks about it. Thanks! More from my blog post over at Vidquik:
Our alpha went live today! For those of you that might not know what an “alpha” is, it’s the stage of software development when live testing begins. It’s typically before a product’s full features are complete. After alpha is the beta stage, where a product’s primary features are completed and ready to be tested by a greater audience than in the alpha stage.
For Vidquik’s alpha, we are only providing our video conferencing (not a full web conferencing platform) to the public and we appreciate any help that we can get in terms of your feedback, insights, complaints, or bug reports. Just a few minutes after our alpha was released we received several notices that our email confirmation link was broken. FAIL. Of course the matter was quickly resolved. We appreciate all of your notifications, comments and suggestions, so please keep them coming!
About a month from today, our beta launch will present Vidquik’s full platform, which is a video and presentation sharing platform. Think WebEx or Citrix (GoToMeeting), but stripped down to their core essentials. AND we made it extremely easy to use. There are no downloads involved, no registration is required, and no login is ever necessary. A simple to use GoToMeeting with zero hassles. Best of all, for one-to-one meetings we will provide it for free. If you use WebEx or GoToMeeting, you’re paying $49 per month. With Vidquik, it will be zero.
