Hey there! One month of business. And what a month! Clients worldwide, many releases, lots of bug fixes and improvements and more than $3000 revenue. Not much some would say, but enough for a small guy like me making his first steps as an entrepreneur.

I should blog more, that’s for sure. I haven’t lately as I’ve been working hard on getting a new important release out sometime next week. Or the week after. What’s important is that FlairBuilder has been growing steadily and healthy. Many bugs were squashed thanks to the small community built around the product. These days I just passed over the 100th support ticket. Quite a milestone, no?

Since this post was more meant to say “Hi!”, I’ll not get back to work. Oh, by the way there are two things I’d like to talk about, though.

One: Today a serious bug caused a customer to loose her project. That was embarrassing for me and I was happy to refund her as a small compensation. I did my best and solved the issue as fast as possible, uploading a bug-fix release in about an hour. Beside the bug fix, I also added a small piece of code that will constantly save a revision of your current project. The location of that file is in your USER_DIR/.flairbuilder/restore/MyProjectName_timestamp.fbp. If anything bad happens and you loose your work, not necessarily because of FlairBuilder, be sure to go to this folder and check the last file saved in here. It should be pretty recent, less than a minute or so.

Two: It’s been a while since I wanted so much to tell everyone how much money I get every month that now, I can’t help but thinking this is an oporturtunity for me to say it out loud! I made $3000 a month and is more than my gross income as a full-time employee! Yay!

I’ll get back to you with more details about the upcoming release. As I said, I should blog and tweet more.

Unknown, here I come!
