So here it is two days until the unveiling of codename Argus at PostieCon and I’m both extremely excited and apprehensive at the same time. Yesterday we  put a freeze on new code going into the milestone release of Argus for PostieCon and worked on getting the kinks out. Today we will continue to do the same.

I must say that this is going to one sexy application from a programming point of view as it combines many frameworks and technologies.

In retrospect the past four months have been intense. My team and I have put in countless hours by spiking features or just hard-core programming. Naturally at first there was the whole “can we do this?” or here’s what we need, as in some cases we looked at each other knowing that some may not be possible. Of course there was absolutely no stress over re-branding Argus from PayPerPost to (undisclosed) when the company became Izea :).

It was all worth it in the end. I’m really looking forward to next Monday(the day after PostieCon) in order to take a break even for one day. This is not to say we were driven to deliver from a company point of view; we did this because everyone at Izea does take pride and is professional in what they do.  We do want to deliver the best and from what I saw yesterday tyeing up the loose ends, we have delivered it.

I’m excited about this and wish I could say more, however I’m not as nothing is official yet. Although Argus will be unveiled at PostieCon a public display will follow in a couple of weeks thereafter if plans stay the same.
