May 2nd, 2007 by Robert Einspruch

The day has finally arrived - ziizoo “alpha” is live. A lot of work has gone into making this happen, and we are excited and exhausted all at once! Today is the first step towards revolutionizing the tutoring industry.

As a “thank you” for being patient with us during the build-up to ziizoo “alpha”, we are making a special offer to “pioneer” tutors like you. For a limited time we are waiving our marketplace commission and, in certain cases, tutors will be able to use ziizoo FREE OF CHARGE FOREVER. How awesome is that? Visit the special offers page on our blog (blog.ziizoo.com/fees/special-offers) for more details.

As we mentioned last week, we will release ziizoo “alpha” to students around 5/15. Until then, the billing and “ranking and reviews” features on the site will be turned off. However, you can build your profile by adding your photo, a short description about yourself, your academic credentials and keywords that describe what you do. In addition, feel free to play around with any part of the site, including the online whiteboads, text-chat (audio-chat will available this summer), and the keyword generator.

We ask again for your patience when using the site and to please report bugs, odd behavior or anything else that you think we should be aware of by going to the “report bugs” link at the bottom of the site.

Today is the first day of a new era in tutoring. But we can’t do it without you, so please come join us!

    I was able to create an account, but unable to get to the credentials section.
    It just stays blank for 10 min. In other words, there are no fields on the empty page to fill in. The same thing happens on Services. Today is the day I joined, so maybe you have to check things, but you no information about me other than what I placed on my profile. Please advise me.
    Thanks

    When I try to sign in the web page is flashing from “done” to “connecting.” It is like it is looping. I’ve tried to sign in 3 times now and the web page.
    Any suggestions.

    Thank you,
    Carole
