Mobile Roadie leads the pack in the emerging mobile application platform market. Based in LA, they launched in 2009 as a platform for the music industry, allowing labels to easily roll out mobile apps for their bands. “MoRo” has since captured the attention (and business) of Fortune 500 brands spanning industries and interests. Their original feature rich platform allows their clients to roll out a customizable app easily for $500.
Ceding to high demand, MoRo has expanded their “Core” product offering to include “Plus” and “Pro”. The new tiered packages introduce vast new customization features, advanced content management and new web->to->app syncing capabilities. Rolling out a robust mobile app just got easier.
(mt)’s Jason McVearry visited the Mobile Roadie team a few weeks before today’s launch. Co-founders Michael Schneider and Brock Batten took time to chat about new Pro features, their growth and future plans.
Recently, the hosting industry has experienced a large influx of attacks against websites running popular blogging, content management, and e-commerce applications. At (mt) Media Temple we take these threats very seriously and we have taken several parallel steps to help our customers stay secure. This blog post is an attempt to do a better job in explaining the often confusing nature of security issues - some of which are specific to (mt) and some of which are non-specific to (mt). We would like to assure our customers that we are focused on this subject and that the (mt) infrastructure is not “hacked”.
Today (mt) has released an awesome feature for all (ve) Server customers, “Realtime Server Status”. The new tool, which provides realtime server health information, is immediately available within the AccountCenter. Some of the new features include:
Visual Alerts to help customers easily detect unhealthy nodes.
Quick Status Widget in the control panel displays need-to-know server status information.
Realtime Graph displays deep server information with detailed points to help administrators diagnose server and application performance.
Utilizes technology that will power our upcoming Public API.
Last month we headed to San Francisco for GigaOM’s Structure Conference, where we mingled and introduced our (ve) Server to the Cloud masses.In conversations on the conference floor, we asked our colleagues “What they need from the Cloud?” We caught some responses on video and awarded our brave participants with something special from (mt) Media Temple. Here are some of the cloudy expectations from the Structure crowd:
Building a brand from scratch into an international culture shifting force by the age of 24 is not a common story, especially in the indie music and pop art scenes powering the next main stream trends. Mark Hunter, The Cobrasnake, has built his brand with hustle and a clear vision placing community at the center of his “business plan”. Now The Cobrasnake has the Cobra Shop, which recently opened in the Hollywood and Highland mall.
Kyle Bragger is a developer and designer and proud maker of Forrst. Forrst is gaining momentum as a destination for designers and developers to help each other share information and cool work. Forrst is hosted on (mt) Media Temple’s new (ve) Server, the flag ship product of the new (mt) ProDev line. Kyle made time for a virtual chat with (mt)’s Jason McVearry.
We know how important it is to keep up on all things “Cloud”. We’re headed back to Structure in San Francisco this week to mingle, learn and introduce our new (ve) Server to the cloud masses. Structure is a leading Cloud Conference produced by GigaOM, June 23rd and 24th at the Mission Bay Conference Center.
This year we’re going to have some interactive fun happening at an exhibition table. If you’re at Structure, stop by our table, tell us what you need from the cloud and you could win one of hundreds of prizes, like free hosting on our new (ve) server for a year.
We’re very pleased to announce Wordpress 3.0, now available as a 1-click install in the AccountCenter for all (gs) Users. This release represents a GIANT step forward for the WordPress platform, and we’re excited to get the release out to you. Please check out their great blog post detailing all the changes. This is a huge release for our friends at WordPress. Kudos to them!
(mt) Media Temple started supporting the Cobrasnake (AKA Mark Hunter) back in 2004. Back then his simple party photo site was Polaroid Scene and (mt) was still a “smallish” company.
In a few years The Cobrasnake has gone from underground party photographer to legitimate business owner and culture icon. (mt) has been with the Cobrasnake through the years and we’re thrilled to see his latest project take life. Introducing The Cobra Shop! The shop brings his years of hustle and lifestyle adventure in a single, creative boutique (AKA a Pawn Shop) where you can buy Cobrasnake’s vintage line, custom design clothing and hot culture accessories for your life.
The Cobra Shop opened it’s doors on Wednesday, June 16th. (mt)’s own Jason McVearry was able to catch Mark for an interview the day before. Enjoy the tour!
Exclusive interview with the Cobrasnake coming next week!
