A while back we posted about Italian valley, which is a poll taken to declare the most innovative out of the innovations chosen for Expo 2010. The innovation that gets maximum public votes gets awarded. We are just few votes away from No 5. So, it would be great if you could take a moment to vote for us. Click here to vote for itsme.

Towards the end of this month(tentative date: 24th May), we will be rolling out the itsme prototype(Alpha version). This means that everyone will be able to download the itsme prototype(with a bootable ISO) and use it to create venues, organize their stories and interact with in them.
The plan is to go for a complete open release allowing the public to develop its features through extensions. At the moment we are alpha-testing the prototype and more details about the open release will be provided soon on this blog, so stay tuned.... Kindly direct all press enquiries to press@itsme.it. We would be happy...
