It's been so long...
« on: November 14, 2011, 07:57:05 PM »
Hello folks,

Man - it's been a while since I've been here! I've been wanting to come and say hi for so long -- but time gets the better half of me lately.

I have no idea who's still active on here - I still keep in touch with some of you outside of the forums - but I just thought I'd come on and say hello, let everyone know I miss coming to these boards on a daily basis. I often reflect on my time spent around these boards, a lot of great people talking about a great passion.

A few of you know about my plans to start a Canadian version of Weatherscan, it's been a project in the works for over 5 years and I'm glad to say that things are looking promising for a launch sometime early next year. Spending time on this board has helped in ways never thought possible. There's the aspect that developers see, but it's awesome to hear what the actual viewers want to see; this has allowed me to create the best viewer experience possible.

I'll update everyone on the status of this, but thought I'd stop in and say hello to the forum that made my day for so long. Hope everyone is doing well.

Also - I've actually got a survey on the go right now - basically asking what your thoughts are on weather focused television channels - if anyone wants to take a few seconds to answer the 5 questions - I'd appreciate it!

I hope to be around here a bit more often!

Hey Kyle, it's great to hear from you! :wave:

Good to see that your project is doing good!  :biggrin: Will there be a stream for it again this time around?

Also, quite a bit of us still come around here, though we don't post as often as we used to due to TWC just not being of our dire interests anymore, but we still actively partake in general discussions. :yes:

Hope to see you around more, and again, best of luck on getting closer and closer to a launch of your weather station! :)
I've gone off on a journey to be a moderator at another forum, but this place will forever remain home for me~

Hey Kyle welcome back! :D I had been wondering what the status of Weathercaster has been, as I think it will turn out to be a great addition to Canadian programming. If you need any more help or input with that let me know :)
