We are very happy to have received this video testimonial from one of our customers, CasaBella productions.
Thanks, Santo! Congratulations on the premiere of your show! We’re glad VirtualCallboard could be a part of it.

VirtualCallboard 1.1.5 was released on Thursday morning to all our customers. This update resolves a number of issues, as well as 8 customer-found issues.
Here are a few highlights:
We are excited we were able to tackle so many customer-found defects in this release. Keep sending us your feedback by using the “Send Feedback” link at the top of your VirtualCallboard. As always, we will try to meet all of our customer’s needs.
We also are excited about the first step we put in place toward having a fully functioning Developer API (application programing interface) for VirtualCallboard. This will allow developers to interface 3rd party systems with VirtualCallboard in the future. If you are interested in developing for VirtualCallboard, we highly suggest you contact us at support@virtualcallboard.com or visit the developers page of VirtualCallboard.com.
For more information about VirtualCallboard, you can visit the website or try the live demo.

Things have been busy here at EmpytSpace! We are starting of 2011 with big plans, new initiatives, and lots of excitement. Here are just a few things that are going on:
Last year was a growth year for VirtualCallboard. We more than doubled the number of customers using the service last year. These customers represented nearly every aspect of live entertainment: secondary education, higher education, touring, regional/LORT theater, dinner theater… we even had a film production company and a church production group use VirtualCallboard last year!
We are trying to look at all the ways we can to get the word out as effectively as possible. We have a Facebook page (be our friend!) and we are on Twitter (follow us!) and we have our website at www.virtualcallboard.com. We still get most of our customers, though, from search engines.
To help improve the industry referrals, we plan offer great rewards and incentives this year for customers who bring their friends on to VirtualCallboard. We will have a range of gifts or discounts available for people who refer others in the industry to use our software. Stay tuned for more info as we figure out how we are going to exactly do this.
We’ll also be at the national USITT Stage Expo in March. If you need a pass to see the Stage Expo, let us know. We’ve got freebies to give away!
Development on VirtualCallboard continues. We are hoping to produce consistent releases this year (every two months or so) with various bug fixes and enhancements to the system.
One large thing we are attempting to do in the short term is develop an API (application programing interface) so that other applications can interface with VirtualCallboard. This would benefit companies who may have other systems (i.e. a booking system) that they would like to integrate with VirtualCallboard. This also paves the way for future mobile apps (smartphones, tablets, etc). You can get more information as this takes shape at http://www.virtualcallboard.com/developers/
We’ve also been slowly working on some new product ideas in the background. We’re not quite ready to share them with the world yet, but in the meantime, if you know any good developers (or are one yourself) who could give us a hand developing these apps, please let us know.
Thanks!

We’ve returned and recovered from a very enjoyable and successful time in Kansas City where we had a booth at USITT’s (United States Institute of Theater Technology) annual conference and Stage Expo..
We met a lot of great people, signed up some new customers for VirtualCallboard, and even managed to squeeze in a conference session or two.
This year was the fourth conference I’ve been to where there was one or more sessions which discussed management and new communication technologies. We’re definitely seeing an upward trend in the number of people turning to the internet to find better ways to manage and disseminate company information. We’re very confident in our product’s ability to do this quickly, privately and securely.
We donated a 6 month VirtualCallboard subscription for the Institute to auction off at their New (and Old) Products Showcase, and we’d like to thank Andrea Shimmoeller who generously supported the Institute and won the auction! Andrea came by on Friday and got her VirtualCallboard up and running.
We also want to congratulate the winners of the drawing we held at our booth for a free 6 month subscription to VirtualCallboard.
And the winner is:
Thanks for everyone’s interest and support at the convention. We are geared up and ready to grow!
