Progress Report: 30 March 2009

[denise]

OMG, guys, we've got so much stuff to tell you this week, I can't even figure out where to start.

No, wait, I know where to start:


1. OMG OPEN BETA LAUNCH

Dreamwidth Studios will be launching to open beta on:

Thursday, April 30, 2009

The site will open for account creation and paid account sale in the evening (EDT) of April 30. (We don't know an exact time yet; we'll let you know that as soon as we decide.) At that time, you'll be able to create an account one of two ways: by getting an invite code from another user, or by purchasing a paid account.

For our first six months of operation, paid accounts will cost $25 for 12 months, $13 for six months, $5 for two months, and $3 for one month. Premium paid accounts -- all of the paid features at higher limits -- will cost $40 for 12 months and $20 for six months. (After the first six months, the prices will rise to $35/year for paid accounts and $50/year for premium paid accounts; the first-six-month discount is to reflect that things will still be imperfect during open beta.) All prices are in USD.
