Intridea’s latest product, crowdsound has been featured on TechCrunch. We love showcasing our products to a new audience, so it’s definitely a treat everytime we make it to the front page.

Here’s the link: CrowdSound on TechCrunch

We’re currently hard at work integrating our new features and pay-plans to take us out of public beta. At the same time, our own widget is helping us receive new suggestions effortlessly—these help us polish our existing features till they shine. As such, here’s a status update on some of the most popular suggestions.

You will soon be able to customize your widget top-to-bottom. Here are a few screenshots of widgets built using the new customization interface:
