Cocomo: Keeping It Rolling

Posted by Fang Chang at 09:05 AM

Happy New Year, everyone!

We’re back from the holidays and ready to kick things back into high gear. As some of you know, the Cocomo private beta kicked off late last year and we’re off to a great start with good early activity and feedback from participants.

Hats off to the brave souls who’ve already dived in and exposed our oversights!

If you’ve applied, but have not yet received access -- don’t fret! We are opening the beta in phases -- mainly to make sure we can properly support participants and work out the kinks (see above reference) -- and will be letting in more folks in the comings weeks, and throughout the beta.

Lastly, I thought the survey results from the beta application were interesting and thought I’d share the below with you all so you can see the mix of fellow beta participants. Collaborative applications takes the cake, but that’s not a surprise… ;-)

Update 10:17am PST -- The major storms here in NorCal have knocked out the power at the office. I've been sitting in the dark for the last hour and keeping it rolling... well, at least until my laptop runs out of juice.

Hello

I work for a recruiting firm called Bloom Park Associates(http://www.bloompark.com) and we are interested in CoCoMo for its messaging and chat capabilities. However, I also saw that Adobe has a product called Pacifica that apparently provides similar functionality.

Can you please tell me what the difference is between these platforms?

Cocomo is mainly focused on enabling developers to build collaborative applications.

I can't really speak to the Pacifica product and roadmap as they are in a different group, but their primary focus is voice.
