An idea that has been floating around the toggle office for sometime has been offering a hosted version of Pixie. For the less technically minded it can be a challenge to get Pixie installed and setup so we thought it might be useful to offer a fully hosted environment which allows new comers to get setup quickly and easily. The package will include hosting, email, a domain name and support. We have not worked out the numbers in terms of cost, bandwidth or storage space as we wanted to gauge your interest first. If it is not too much trouble pop your thoughts into the questionnaire above (we will post up the results soon).

April site showcase
Pixie is fast approaching its first birthday (it was launched to the public as part of the May 1st Reboot 2008) and we have managed to successfully showcase three fantastic sites every month. We are getting quite a big backlog of sites to feature so we have decided that this month we are going to put some time aside to create a dedicated showcase section to the site. This will be the last showcase in the blog and it is a good one! We have example of Pixie being used for excellent causes, some excellent design and an unexpected surprise. On with the showcase...

Interface Design - Chapter 1 - SMX
Over the coming weeks I will be writing about Pixie's interface design. While I am happy with the current interface I want to explore how we ended up with the current design and also where we may take the design of Pixie (and the whole project) in future. For me this has been the most interesting part of of Pixie's development and while the programming the app has been a great opportunity to develop my PHP knowledge I have found working on the interface a far more interesting challenge.

Pixie v1.02
The next release of Pixie is now ready for download, it contains a patch for the security flaw found last week. Upgrade instructions can be found in the wiki, unfortunately they are a little bloated. If you get stuck or find bugs in this release - please post your questions and feedback to the forums.
