That's right. We've done gone changed the name again. DashMail is fast, smooth and more Dashboardy. We hope you agree...

Well, it seems we made a bit of a mistake. Turns out the the Mac community already has a QuickMail. As a result we've had to change the name of our brand new widget to SwiftMail.

Oh well, quick (or should we say swift) slap on the wrist and we learnt our lesson!

New website, new albums, release party... what next!? We'll tell you what's next - it's a brand new widget!

That's right. We've just released QuickMail so that you Mac users out there can easily send short emails from your dashboard. If todays downloads are anything to go by this one's going to be a pretty popular widget.

We've done a lot of testing of this one but if you find anything wrong with it or you just want to send us your thoughts and criticisms please contact us.

Also, a quick note of thanks to Howard Katz for all his work in helping us to get the bugs ironed out.

We're having little party to celebrate both our new releases and our shiny new website! It's going to be a swanky little affair with a "Cut, Class and Cocktails" dress code, DJ's all night and even some secret squirrel surprises!...........Check out the invite!

After many a long night working till all hours of the morning our new site is finally live. There are lots of new goodies for you to have a play with. Other than the pretty new site you get two new widgets as well as a new version of the Mail Checker widget. Then, of course, there's the music.

Unfortunately we can't sell you CDs until next monday as we're waiting on the bank to activate our merchant account. Meanwhile you can check out the new widgets and get a taste of the music on the releases page.

My guess is that all this new stuff happening at once is going to keep us on our toes for the next week while we get all the issues ironed out. Let us know if you have any problems and we'll do our best to get things sorted as quickly as possible.

We've updated the Scue widget so that it now a) works again and b) runs through Feedburner. You can download the new version from the widgets page.

Obviously there has been a lot of work done since we started this blog. We've now moved the blog into our new Drupal site. Unfortunately that means that a) Feed Burner is no longer working and b) the widget is still looking at the old blog. We'll be sorting out both of these issues within the week.

We're currently on the look out for a front end designer to collaborate with on our various projects, the first of which being the design of our record label site.

If you're up to the task and are anywhere near as motivated as us then get in touch!

Rumor has it that The Axis Of Cool will be played on Radio@ctive this weekend as part of New Zealand music month. I believe it will be appearing on the Caffeine & Aspirin show - sometime between 9am and 1pm Saturday morning.

Of course you can just download and listen to it now if you can't possibly wait that long.

We've been using Feed Burner to publish our rss feed but I had made a tiny error when setting it up so only our first ever two posts showed up......not ideal but it's all sorted now, Feed Burn away!

If you've got no idea what I'm talking about then have a quick read of this!
