BUG #4!!! This is a joke right!?!?

Now the People ("Everyone") section won't work for me.

I can't be alone with experiencing this pain - right?

Good way to start off the launch guys. I won't be a customer anytime soon. Just say'n

Arg! Bug #3 found. Now the Daily Progress is not working for me.

37signals, seriously.

37signals, this is why you don't rewrite software from scratch.

System Down!

Not sure how 37signals can claim 99% uptime when on the first day of launch, it's not working.

No, this is a major bug because they are trying to authenticate the credit card before accepting the input in the form field. Meaning, if you type "1234567891234567" that won't work, yet a test credit card # does work.

This is crazy, so 37signals doesn't even allow new users to sign up for the Basecamp Classic version.

Seeing this new Basecamp product makes me even more so want to use the OLD Classic version ... yet I can't.

Does anyone else find the marketing on basecamp.com shaddy?

It says on the front page:

    8,000,000+
    projects managed with Basecamp

    99.94%
    rock-solid uptime reliability record

    97%
    of customers recommend Basecamp
Yet all of those stats are for the legacy Basecamp Classic product and not for this brand new product they created, which has a completely different code base, which was just released TODAY.

Free plans by using a test credit card # (e.g. 4111111111111111).

It works.

Good job 37signals. You instill so much confidence in your in attention to details in your product. Much like the recent known Rails security vulnerability that you never addressed and now Github was compromised as a result.
