Introducing iBegin Gamma

Posted by: Ahmed Farooq In: iBegin Labs

We like trying new stuff. We end up creating a lot a stuff. Stuff that never gets to see the light of day and just sits around.

Until now.

Hoping to help push the entire local space, we have now launched iBegin Gamma (a slight play on the perpetual betas sites go through). A collection of random tools, websites, and thoughts, we hope to help move online local forward.

To start:

iBox v2 - cleaned up, and now with extended support via plugins. We’ve built-in the first plugin - YouTube support!

iBegin Share - easy script for sharing + spreading your website. WP plugin almost complete.

So try it out, and let us know what you think. And more coming soon of course.

Update: 2.1.0 of iBox is out - some little bug fixes, and introduces skin support.

Ibox v2 - Seems to have a problem with IE 7

The popup box is positioned at the bottom of the page instead of the middle.

This occurs in your demo page

Works fine in Firefox.
