Just beat it.

Over the last few months, sgBEAT has had a couple of major events with breaking news and we’d like to make sure you’re always up to date.

In March, our one of our SMS gateways (SMS+) was terminated, while more recently, we celebrated our first year in Beta. The difficult part about breaking these news, however, was letting you know. We posted the announcements on the sgBEAT home page and on the various social networks we’ve connected you to, but there was limited reach since we didn’t automatically link your accounts when you joined.

We’ve decided not to compromise any longer on communication with you, our loyal existing users, which is why you’ll find yourself following sgBEAT on Twitter and Plurk.

We believe this channel is necessary for us to let you know any important news regarding the service. If you look at our tweet history, we post announcements only occasionally (barely a couple or so week), so don’t worry, we won’t be spamming you with random chatter.

We strongly urge that you continue following us to stay as up-to-date as possible, and in reward, get first dips to our freebies.

We promise. (:

Yours,
The sgBEAT Team
