My future employer local.ch has gone live with the first public release two days ago. I actually worked for local.ch before as an independent programmer in my Arroba times and when the project didn’t even have an official name yet. I first had contact with that project on January 17 of last year. At that time there were some ideas and not much more. Now, a bit more than one year after those early ideas, the site is live for the first time. I for one am very excited.
What you see now is a start. A good start I like to think. We will be able to give you a lot more services in the future. I don’t think we will run out of ideas any time soon.
Other participants in the local.ch project have blogged as well about the launch:
