Openomy In The Press

Since we've started, we've never done any real PR work attempting to get press mentions. Luckily, we've been fortunate enough to be featured in some of the best news sources, including blogs, online news sites, magazines, and being able to participate in conferences.

I thought I'd take a second to appreciate all the nice words we've received, and point out some nice press we've recently received.

Web Worker Daily
On March 5, Mike Gunderloy of Web Worker Daily said in a post entitled Openomy: Going Beyond Free Storage:

...Openomy has a different strategy: they’ll give you a gigabyte of storage and a way for you to build your own features.

Specifically, Openomy has implemented a REST-based API with (at the moment) Ruby language bindings. Anyone can write an application that gets authenticated access to files stored on Openomy, then perform operations like uploading, downloading, and tagging. If you’re a developer looking to add online storage to your own applications, this gives you a potential way to do that without running your own disk farm.

PC World
And, on March 23, PC World included us in their list of 101 Fantastic Freebies, as one of their top File Sharing and Storage sites. The list should be in the May, 2008 issue of the print version of PC World. We're very humbled and thankful for this distinction and thank everyone involved.

Thanks for all the kind words, folks! We hope we can exceed the high expectations set by these articles.
