We’re very happy that we’re cruising towards launch of Mac support. I have a MacBook myself, and feel lucky that I’ve gotten to use Mac for a few weeks as an internal tester. Last week, we gave our private Beta testers a Thanksgiving present—Mac software! So far, all the feedback from our private beta has been positive. If we continue to hear no issues, we’ll go into public beta next week, where anyone who owns the EasyBloom and has a Mac can volunteer to use the beta.

And after the public beta is…Availability! We’ve gotten many requests from people who want to give EasyBloom as a holiday present, and we’re trying our best to have Mac Support in 2008.

A couple weeks into our new digs, CEO and Co-Founder, Matt Glenn’s friend dropped by for a visit. After a five minute tour of the place, Matt asked her how she liked the new office. “It’s drab,” she replied, flatly. “Drab?” questioned Glenn. “Yeah, you guys need to liven this place up. You need some plants!” While we’d of course planned on decking out the space with plants, Matt’s friend helped expedite the process. The following week, we all set out EasyBloom Plant Sensors to help figure out which plants would thrive in our office environs. It was a great way to use our own product, and get a move-on on the plant buying. After getting some cool recommendations (Plumosa Fern , Spider Plant , Lipstick Plant , and others) we headed to our local nursery to get them.  Next up, we’ll monitor the plants with our EasyBloom sensors, to make sure they are getting the care they need. Stay tuned.

In the last week or two we’ve received a couple great reviews on the EasyBloom Plant Sensor. In this month’s Popular Science, the EasyBloom sensor is their PopSci Pick of the Month. And over at ecofriend, the review calls our product, “an ingenious plug-in plant sensor.” Check the review here.
