Hi,
We are excited to bring out Beta 3 of the new ViRN Instruments site powered by our universal WebC Platform. We have been talking about WebC and the ability it has, and hopefully you get to share in the experience.
WebC will manage services on the backend while any site we run will sit atop it and refer to it for specific data, e.g. User Details, Messaging amongst other thing. Its a seamless platform which means you don’t get to actually know when you step out for Authentication.
Authentication
WebC also has an authentication mechanism that any site can attatch to, making it easy for them to authenticate us. This is important if you want to be able to engage with our growing user base. Its easy to engage with a new set of people and they don’t have to keep registering on different sites. Soon, we will begin support for Wordpress and Joomla sites amongst others, allowing a shared user base, and all for free.
Mobile
While WebC is mobile compliant, we have chosen to first avoid releasing for mobile until we exit Beta status. In the near future, you will be able to engage with the site from any device.
The Old
What happened to the old sites? WebC is now powering ALL ViRN Instruments sites. What this means is sites like Ukurasa, News, Blogs, Wallapa are all now in WebC. The domains don’t change but the sites will improve a lot.
