I came up with this website idea 2-3 years ago but back then I was too busy working in Vilnius (Lithuania) and then studying to develop it. Oh, and I was too lazy, too.
I told Darius (who is probably the best programmer in the Universe) about this and he agreed to join me. We wanted to finish developing this website as soon as possible (and since we're studying, it's not that easy), so we started looking for office - a place where we could come after school/studies and work on the project. Mindze helped us on that, we've got a really nice office very cheap.
We've started working in the end of summer, 2007. So it took us 6-7 months to develop the first version of website. We had many new ideas along the way, so we had to adjust the script.
We've also got a lot of help from Luka (he's a very good designer from Poland) and Shaun from UK.
2 months ago Sharenator was launched. It's still on beta, we have a lot of bugs to fix, add new features, etc., but I'm really happy it's already growing.
It's growing quite fast though. Over 100,000 unique visitors today (actually it's because some videos got really popular yesterday). We had to order some additional servers because we maxed out our 100mbit/s line and website started crashing. I'll tell you more about Sharenator once I finish setting up the server.
By the way, we're experimenting with commenting system. Comments are sorted by point count (better comments are in the top), so they go up when you vote for them. If you want to respond to some comment, just use "reply" button next to it - that way it won't get lost when somebody upvotes the parent comment.
We'll add filters to "featured all" and "board all" soon. So flashes will not bother some our users soon. We'll also upgrade the navigation so we hope board will be more active. So our society should filter good posts by rating them.
Sorry about delays but our team is conflicting lately so it's hard to work when we disagree on so much things. But things got better today and we thought some new great ideas.
I wonder where it will be after a year :P
Add more games!!! Please.
