Headup

Three weeks have gone by since we launched the headup browser extension as a private beta.
We’ve received lots of much appreciated coverage and feedback, and are hard at work integrating some of the excellent comments we’ve received into the add-on and generally improving service for our users.

We’ve been working so hard that we’ve actually completed a brand new release of headup, which is now ready for you to download.

Why update my headup extension?

headup’s newest version solves some of the issues that occurred in the previous version:

• • Your headup experience should be richer as the add-on now recognizes and offers semantic content relating to new entities.
  • The new version of the extension corrects issues reported by mac users.
  • We’ve improved the add-on’s usability based on the comments you’ve been sending in.
  • We’ve improved the optimization of memory usage.

Upgrade yourself to the new shiny version of headup now, and start enjoying all the yummy semantic goodness it delivers…

time to move up to the latest version of your headup browser add-on

Keep on keeping on and stay cool

Mike,

Well it’s been a few days since we launched and so far we’re pretty pleased. The launch went well and we’ve already gotten some really great reviews.

Frederic Lardinois from readwriteweb wrote us up as a “a very useful little tool” and expected we’d “only get more powerful“, Paul Glazowski from Mashable wrote about us that we “…give you easy access to all things you might consider relevant” and Chris Sherman from searchengineland wrote he was impressed with what he’d seen and even went so far as to say that “…the tool looks like it’s well on the way to becoming an invaluable part of my searching toolkit“.

Thanks people!

I’d like to thank Frederic, Paul, Chris and the rest of the members of the blogging community who bothered to review the headup add on, especially in light of the fact that most of the reviews I bumped in to were really very supportive.

I’d also like to take this opportunity to thank the members of our user community who took the time to write to us with their feedback and suggestions for further improvements of the headup extension. Everyone here is really excited by every bit of feedback that you sent us because, although we’ve all been fiddling with the development versions of the headup extension for quite some time now, these comments are the very first time we are getting input from you guys – our user community.

Tell us what you think

I encourage you to keep on writing to us at feedback@headup.com and to continue sharing your experiences of how the headup extension has been treating you. If you have a particularly interesting or amusing story of how headup enhanced your browsing experience content we’d love to publish it here on our blog.

If you want an invitation to headup you can obtain one here. Please be patient as it may take a while before you get your invitation as we currently have a bit of a waiting list, apparently we’re popular…
