Toluu Blog

Wow! The past few days have been remarkable. The response to Toluu has far surpassed our expectations. We have seen thousands of feeds added to the system and our beta invite request list is growing by the hour. We have met some amazing people and discovered great new blogs we never knew existed.

To give you a sense of the unexpected adoption we had to upgrade our server to handle the load of all our new user, in fact, we did not plan on upgrading until a few months from now The amount of activity on the site makes us so excited to keep expanding the beta program and roll out new features and improvements to our matching algorithms.

We know there are issues and bugs, but know that we are hustling to get them fixed.

We want to give a huge shout out to everyone who has written about Toluu in the past 72 hours, our beta invite list is growing exponentially because of you.
