As I mentioned yesterday, the California expansion went so well that we have decided to open it up to Seattle, too. We’re getting a bunch of invite requests, but the servers have been rock solid, so we wanted to continue our plans for world domination (or at least the west coast of the U.S.)

In a similar fashion, here is how you can help:

• If you live in Washington State and would like an invite, please request one! I’ll be sending them out in batches a few times per day.
• If you are already using Shizzow, please send a few invites to your Washington friends and family.
• If you run out of invites and need more, you can petition the Shizzow Invite Fairy using our contact form. I promise that the Shizzow Invite Fairy monitors the contact us emails.
• Send us feedback! If you find any bugs or just want to send us some suggestions for feedback, please submit all feedback to our Get Satisfaction account.

We’re still deciding on the next expansion city. Feel free to make suggestions in the comments.

Wow, we’ve had a great response to the California expansion! We continue to send more invites and get more users signed up for Shizzow. We also had some great coverage of the launch in case you missed any of it.

The initial expansion went so well that we’ll be expanding into other areas very soon with Seattle (and other cities in Washington) next on the agenda, so stay tuned for that announcement. If you live in Washington, please go ahead and request an invite now. We’ll be sending them out soon.
