Wow, it's been a crazy week!

We held a really successful launch / Hack Day at The O2 Arena on the 12th December, thanks to all that attended and supported us on the day. You can check out photo's here:

Congratulations to our Hack winners:

First Prize: Mark Kirby and Antony Ribot from ribot (Develop an App for the O2 Litmus Press Launch in January)

Second Prize: Adam Cohen-Rose from KiTZOOM (30 hours free access to Device Anywhere)

Third Prize: Tim Langley from mangami ($500 free testing from Mob4Hire)

We have been up and running for 6 days, seen our first app's published and so far have had over 100 developers register - Welcome.

I've published a summary deck on the O2 Litmus Developer Business Model, as discussed at the Developer Day last Friday - you can check that out here:

The Forums are starting to buzz with good suggestions coming in, please keep them coming. I've kept my promise and published our initial road map containing the things we are thinking about - let us know your views.

Over the Christmas & New Year period I'm sure all of our thoughts will turn to turkey, mince pies and falling asleep in front of the TV, but things will start to get really interesting when we return bright eyed and bushy tailed in the New Year. 

Our marketing campaign to the O2 customer base begins in January, and it will be the presence of real customers inside O2 Litmus that will make it such a valuable collaboration and co-creation tool for you. So, start uploading your app's in preparation for the arrival of them and have a great holiday season.
