It’s Tue., Nov. 19, 2013, and — after three years of development — the SNOTES.COM website went live at about 2:00 p.m. today. The site includes the new “SNOTES GENERATOR,” which is at the heart of the entire venture.
Tomorrow, hundreds of friends of Fleur De Lis Group LLC’s Managing Members Joe Bayer, Richard Sherrer and Jeff Pickett will be invited by email to join in a five-day-long “alpha test.” Joe called it “The Not Ready for Prime Time Test,” but the hope is that alpha testers will reveal relatively few issues and the management team will soon iron out the details of a “beta test” that will involve thousands of people, many from SNOTES’ hometown of St. Louis.
Among SNOTES’ founders, there is a feeling tonight of “opening night,” or Christmas Eve.
