Arlo

Integration w/Facebook Connect

The first couple weeks for Arlo/Artists have been great. We’ve had lots of signups and new folks trying the system out. We’ve added small refinements, new themes and theme variations on a nearly nightly basis. I am hard at work writing up the documentation to reveal a bit more about the templating system; by and large that documentation should be live this afternoon.

As part of the documentation process, we’re producing brief videos to walk through useful Arlo/Artists features.

In a commit last week, I set up logging into Arlo/Artists through Facebook Connect. It’s pretty useful for folks who are loathe to have to keep track of yet another email/password combo. OpenID login is in the works, but we figured that most everybody at this point has a FB account and so this might be useful for a wider audience initially.

These videos are fairly informal – really just informational and not particularly sexy, but they get the point across and being that I’ve been told I have a face for radio and a voice for the printed page, I try to keep them mercifully short.
