Plaxo just released Server 2.12.

Now that we have a bunch of partners using our website, we had to slide an extra step in the release train that allows the partners to test against the release candidate for a few weeks before release. What this means is I’ve forgotten what is in this release. For me, it was basically a big bug fix release.

One thing I do remember is that I put in a new preview tooltip hack so that you can see the full preview of the eCards without having to select the card first.

This is strange because I’ve been working on a much better way of doing this already that will replace this in the next release. But hopefully it will address the frustration I had where I wanted to get a better idea of what the card might look like without having to navigate 3 pages each direction to do so.

Some other features in the new eCards (part) of the release are

• New bounce management—you get an e-mail informing you if the eCard bounced
• Sending across time zones is improved to make more sense to you
• The customize page loads much faster
• The “Want to send a card like this?” link has been improved to be less ugly

(Now that the Product Design Team for setting up a usable intranet, I was able to look this up.)

Of course, there are a tone of new features and bug fixes in the other parts of Plaxo, but I’ll leave it to others to report them.
