Hrm... something went wrong.
Hey, bad things happen to the best of us. Don't worry, the gnomes have been dispatched. Maybe try again in a little while.

We did it! The Mesh Networking stretch goal has been hit, and now LibraryBox v2.0 will include the ability for multiple boxen to ID each other and automatically update contents Box-to-Box. There's a lot of subtle complexity to doing this right, but I... (Read More)

4 days left!

July 23rd - via: kickstarter.com
Just FOUR more days in the campaign, and we're SO CLOSE to the mesh networking goal. It's been a rocky couple of days on the pledge front, with the numbers going up and down like a yo-yo, but we're still within striking distance of the $30K. If you... (Read More)

FTP Access is GO!

July 17th - via: kickstarter.com

The awesome continues

July 2nd - via: kickstarter.com
Well, that last update looks a bit silly now, doesn't it? I really thought we'd have a problem hitting $10K by tonight, but instead we're sitting at $15K.  This is just a note to say: Thank you, again, for supporting LibraryBox v2.0. We are already... (Read More)
