Keeping with tradition, President Obama presented a wreath today at the Tomb of the Unknowns at Arlington National Cemetery in Virginia.

Veterans Day was initially celebrated as Armistice Day, to commemorate the end of “The War to End All Wars”, World War I. Woodrow Wilson declared it a national holiday in 1938, and in 1954, President Eisenhower signed a bill declaring November 11th to be Veterans Day. In the UK, the holiday is still celebrated as Armistice Day.

This particular Veterans Day, several of the Navajo Code Talkers who helped transmit confidential messages during World War II spoke up on their experiences. With only roughly 50 of the original 400 still alive, their story (which you can read about here) risks being lost to the ages. Many veteran groups are similarly few in numbers – and it is important that their tales are retold.

My own grandfather stormed Normandy on D-Day, earning two Purple Hearts for his injuries. He always had a great respect for those he served with, both the survivors and those who had fallen. He possessed a certain patriotism and pride in his service that transcended politics, and this pride was just one of many admirable traits I remember him by.

Take a moment today to honor a veteran in your family or community – both as service members and as human beings. A simple “Thank You” goes a long way.

The entire team also took part in a little costume contest – ranging from #Balloon Boy (yes, as a trending topic!) to Jack from Jack-in-the-Box .  Here is some of our very colorful team… All the mess on the floor is candy from our piñata event for the upcoming birthdays!

From popular vote, the winner was a tie between Dima the barbarian and Gosia the fortuneteller:

On the other hand, the worst looking costume was decided to be Niels, the Dutch version of our CEO (all in good humor, of course):

What better way to start off the Halloween weekend? Hope you guys have a blast as well!

Where did you work before Cooliris?

I came to Cooliris from Adobe Systems where I ran product marketing, developer relations, product management for the Flash Platform. I originally went to Adobe to work on Adobe Air, which is a really interesting breakthrough in technology. In addition to AIR, we re-launched the Flash Platform, made significant progress bringing on new developers, realigned our Mobile efforts and really built up the evangelism team while I was there. Prior to that I did consulting for several Web 2.0 start-ups, primarily focusing on product development and marketing. I helped launch a couple companies including Kosmix and Wink. I have also worked at some of the big Internet companies, including Excite@Home and AOL. I cut my teeth in product management at a company called Silicon Graphics, which was one of the big computer graphics companies back in the ‘90s.  I was there for 9 years and I covered the gamut from product management to product marketing to developer relations.

How did you get into technology?

I was meeting with a friend who was at Silicon Graphics and he offered me a job as a Product Manager. So my first job in tech was as a product manager for the multiprocessing C compiler.  It was a very technical product and I wouldn’t have probably hired me, but that opened the door for me. I ended up running software product management for SGI for a while and later took over Developer Relations. We had a nice little $50-million-a-year software tools product line, which back in 1996 wasn’t a bad thing at all.

How is it being a woman in the tech world?

In business meetings, I am often the only woman in the room, but I really don’t notice it anymore. Unfortunately that’s the nature of the Valley to some degree, as there are simply fewer women graduating with engineering degrees. I think that the Internet has been a bit of an equalizer – there are a lot more women doing product management, design and web development, in addition to marketing, for consumer internet products. There are also more female CEO’s in the consumer Internet space – Meg Whitman and Carol Bartz who is now at Yahoo! are two who immediately come to mind. There are definitely more women in technical roles than there were ten years ago.  However, I think it’s critical that companies really work for gender and cultural diversity in their hiring.  It’s always important in order to create a balanced team, but when you’re creating products for consumers it’s even more important as it helps you have an internal reality check on how applicable your offerings are to different types of people.

When did you come on board in Cooliris? What’s your role?

I joined Cooliris in July to run Product and Marketing. What I am really focused on right now is trying to figure out the next generation of Cooliris. We have a really great product for viewing photos and videos on the web. It’s very fast and efficient, particularly for finding images that you are looking for, and it’s a fun way of viewing them. What we are working on now is how to make Cooliris a product that people want to use every day.  We are also working on performance improvements to make the current product experience better. So job #1 is shoring up our foundation and making sure that the current product works well across platforms and browsers, and that we start looking beyond our current installed base to more opportunities that we can address today. The second thing we are focused on is to better expose the great functionality at Cooliris that people have a hard time finding.  The third thing we are spending a lot of time on is defining our 2.0 release – creating a product that solves a problem for people, that’s delightful to use and has them coming back every day.

What new can the users expect from Cooliris?

Two big things are coming up – first is performance improvement. We just released Cooliris 1.11.5,which provides significant performance improvements for Windows  users overall and IE users in particular. Our upcoming 1.12 release is going be focused on personalization – particularly around the Cooliris channels and content. We have amazing content from Hulu, CBS and Warner, but it’s hard to find today. We are focusing on helping people realize that we actually have this incredible content in the first place, and make it more discoverable.  Right now we don’t even surface the content in a logical, time-based sequence in the Wall – there is a lot of room for improvement. We will also allow people to start favoriting items and personalizing their Cooliris experience a bit more so that it would be easier for them to find what they want.

What can the users expect for the 2.0 release?

We are moving to a new platform for 2.0 which will open the door to many new product opportunities, including new and more effective ways of viewing content. The Wall works very well for viewing videos and photos, but for viewing text-based content it is not as effective.  We’re still in the product definition phase, doing a number of user studies.  What we want to provide people with is the best way to discover and share the media that they love.

Favorite feature of Cooliris?

There two things I use it for a lot. I like looking at Facebook photos on Cooliris because it’s fun, and gives me a better viewing experience than I get on Facebook. Second, I have 3 kids so I have a lot of family photos. I first became hooked on Cooliris when I was looking for one specific photo of my son and I couldn’t find it because I have 5000 photos on my machine. I was paging through iPhoto and I thought, “Oh, what about using Cooliris to find this”.  It took me less than a minute to find that photo using Cooliris. My husband was looking for the exact same photo on his PC, paging through endless screens of images,  and it took him 45 minutes to find the same photo. So if I’m searching for a photo – one of mine or something on the web, Cooliris is definitely the place I start.

One fun fact about yourself?

I’m a runner, and years ago I ran the Berlin Marathon.  It was the year the Berlin Wall came down, and we were some of the first westerners to run freely through what was then East Germany.  I will never forget the sight of the Germans running through the Brandenburg Tor with tears in their eyes as they crossed into East Berlin.  It was an amazing and touching experience.

In addition, we know you’ve been writing us about supporting Bing Image search and we’re super excited to announce that it is available now!  Simply click in our search toolbar and select Bing as your search engine, or launch Cooliris from any Bing Image search webpage. In light of Halloween coming up in four days, here’s a Wall of some funny Halloween comic strips!

We sincerely hope that you’ve been enjoying our recent performance and usability enhancements to the Cooliris product. In Michele Turner’s words (our very own Executive Vice President of Products), “Supporting platforms, devices, and sites that are important to our users will allow our unique user experience and superior browsing capabilities to spread beyond our immensely happy community. We are thrilled to continue our support of Microsoft’s platforms and innovations through our continued investment in improving their users’ experiences on IE, Windows, and Bing by providing the fastest, most visually compelling, interactive, content browsing experience available.”

Enjoy!

And what better time to brainstorm the spookiest of costumes on Cooliris! Around the Cooliris office we’ve been getting into the spirit of Halloween – even the Cooliris client’s taken up residence at a haunted mansion!

It’s not hard to figure out why: working on Cooliris all day, the opportunity comes up often to browse through walls of whatever pops into our heads (or lack thereof), whether it’s pumpkin carvings, ghouls, or even the Scooby Doo Gang (although that last one may just be me).

So have yourself a frightfully good time and fire up Cooliris to check out the freakiest Halloween walls this side of Transylvania!

You may not notice any visible new features, but there are tons of changes backstage that will make performance better than ever.

The same Cooliris, but faster and better. Enjoy!

Because of this, unfortunately, some of you may have already upgraded to 1.11.3 and noticed that Cooliris has disappeared from your browser!

Here is a table that will help you find which Cooliris version we recommend that you use with your configuration:

All downloads for previous versions are listed in our release notes. Because these are older versions, performance may not be optimal, so we do recommend an upgrade to a supported system if you want the full Cooliris experience.

Thanks for your support and understanding!

Summer may be ending, but a new season is just getting fired up. Get ready for a great Fall on Cooliris!

During the install, you will be prompted to change your Safari settings from 64-bit to 32-bit in order to properly complete the installation and run Cooliris. If you choose “Cancel”, Cooliris will still install but not run until you switch your browser to 32-bit mode.

In Snow Leopard, 64-bit processes are not allowed to load input manager bundles. Since Cooliris installs as an input manager, this renders us incompatible in 64-bit mode. We are working on a 64-bit version of Cooliris, however this requires a significant new release and we do not have a date for that version at this time.”

We encourage you to use Cooliris on 32-bit Safari, but if you’d like to be updated when the 64-bit compatible version is released, you can subscribe to our blog or follow us on Twitter. We will update these communication channels as soon the version goes live, though this may be a while. Alternatively, you can leave your email with us by emailing snowleopard@cooliris.com with “64-bit” in the subject line.

As always, feel free to shoot us an email at feedback@cooliris.com with any feedback!
