Steek is our only name!
January 24, 2008
In order to be more clearly identified in International market, we will no more use “Agematis” and we will only operate under the name of “Steek” like all our product portfolio:
Now Steek is the name of our company as well as our brand.
Good review about SteekR in the most famous blog in Brazil
January 23, 2008
A good review (in Portuguese!) about SteekR here from Tiago Doria.Tiago Doria has more than 40 thousand readers of his blog each day and is inside of one of the biggest portals in Brazil : iG.
Tiago emphasises on 3 main aspects of SteekR:
- The Creative Common directory that appears in the new beta release of SteekR. This directory is available to all customers and gives direct access to Creative Common licenced photos, musics and mp3. There are 2 ideas for us behind this feature in the future: allow customers to share Creative Common files with all the SteekR community.
But we see also this idea as a way to allow our partners to give access to exclusive contents to their customers… - The SteekR drive feature that allows our customers to use their SteekR space as a virtual Drive on their PC or Mac.
- And finally Tiago puts us in front of one of our competitor and it is always nice to be leader…
The SteekR blog in Brazilian is here.
More informations about SteekR V2
January 22, 2008
The new version of SteekR, that we call V2, is still in beta (http://beta.steekr.com/).
We have developed this new version to simplify everything and primarily to improve the usability of SteekR. All the improvements we have included are driven by the feedback of a significant number of our (more than one million) customers.
The general design of the main page of SteekR has been modified in order to provide more room for the files and also to put all the main functions together:
V1:
V2 beta:
For example the menu bar is now more explicit: easy functions are clearly labeled with more easily understood icons:
V1: 
V2 beta:
Sharing files is much more faster and easier to remember with the new V2 beta. The sharing window with V2 beta is displayed on top of the page without any page reload like with version V1. More options are offered to the user: An information reminder (”Share the selected files with friends or create a sharing widget”), the possibility to add title, direct access to permalink and the style of the share (folder or slideshow). We definitely think that sharing is one of the main feature of SteekR and the usage will be increased with the new functionnality.
V1:
V2 beta:
We have also improved the usability of the player. The new player is more readable and easy to use. Along with sharing, we also believe that streaming is also a major feature of SteekR and deserved improvement:
V1:
V2 beta:
Some new features are also added inside this new version like the “Create a widget” feature that allow the SteekR user to display his file selection on a website or a blog.
V2 beta:
Lastest information: This version V2 will be ready when it’s done
