We receive a lot of messages from people who are happily using Fleck. Often I forward these around the office and for the next site we are planning on having a whole section of user testimonials because we are often surprised at the different ways that people use Fleck.
Today I got this great letter from Kelly Tenkely who is a k-5 Computer Teacher:
I just wanted to say a BIG Thank You for Fleck! I am a computer teacher and Fleck has made my life so much easier! I absolutely love being able to Fleck pages for my students so that they can be self guided through lessons. It is amazing. Having 26 students at once makes it hard for me to answer individual questions, especially after I have already given directions…Fleck has cut way down on the questions because they can see what they need to do. It is like having me sitting right there next to them
She even wrote a review on Fleck on ilearntechnology.com.
If you use Fleck and like it please let us know so we can show these letters here and link to you.

Fleck.com has been named Site of the Day at Red Orbit! We received this great honor on 10/27/2007. I’m not sure how much traffic this generated but it feels good anyway.
Check it out:

Patrick came up with a brilliant way to demonstrate the new version of Fleck. He uses his iPhone and a bunch of images he imported with iTunes and then flips through the presentation while occasionally ‘pinching’ in or out.
The resolution and brightness of the iPhone makes it a great presentation device. It is also a lot sexier and more convenient than lugging around a laptop with Powerpoint.
Last week Patrick and Arjen roamed the halls at FOWA in London and everybody who was interested got their personal iPhone Fleck 2.0 demo. In the photo you can see Scott Rafer enjoying the presentation.
So what do YOU think his words were the exact moment the photo was made?
a: “Aha, so THAT is why I should buy an iPhone!”
b: “Oh shit, I think I left something on the stove!”
c: “Wow, Fleck is just the coolest thing EVER!”
d: “I’m going to shave my beard off and glue it to my forehead”
Looking forward to your guesses in the comments.

Last week we got a lot of attention from a Dutch newspaper. They interviewed me (Boris) about the difference between doing business in Holland VS Silicon Valley. They illustrated the article with a lot of photos from the guys in white suits.
Download the PDF or JPG (original scan!).

Patrick and I are going to Techcrunch20 next week to promote Fleck.com to the 600+ visitors there. We are leaving for San Francisco on Friday September 14 early in the morning and will be back somewhere the 20th. We WILL wear our white suits again, as usual.
We plan to have our own little private party on Sunday September 16 in the Supperclub so if you want to join us for a glass of champagne water there please mail me.
If you have any tips or suggestions for companies we should visit or people we should meet or more parties we should go to please leave a comment or mail me.
