So, this is partially why I’ve had my head under water for the last few weeks. I’ve been working to make this release possible…

We’re calling it Qumana 2.0 - and it’s big news. At least we think so. Qumana was previously a pretty cool blogging editor - it’s easy, it’s clean, cross-posting is seamless, tags are integrated, and it’s got that DropPad going on. Well, now it’s got a new toy. And we’ve called it AdGenta.

AdGenta is Qumana’s new ad network. We’ve paired with a great ad company, and are working to insert the best ads, at the best rates, easily. AdGenta lets you define a keyword, preview an ad, customize what it looks like, then insert it. You can choose when & where. And our stats let you see which ads are performing best. It’s that simple.

We have big plans to insert more ad providers later, but for now we’re really pleased. It’s simple to use. You’ve seen me testing them out here.

So, we went big on this release. Brand new website. Two of them, actually. A new Qumana site, plus an AdGenta site. New Qumana build. Lots of new features, and some fixes too. Here’s all the new stuff:

• post-centric keyword-based ad insertion
• ability to insert HTML
• better functionality with WordPress and Blogger platforms
• improved old post editing
• a new-and-improved website
• a new DropPad design
• better drag & drop from Firefox
• post to email (ads & images too!) with our integrated SMTP server

Our plans for the future are big. More ads. Greater simplicity. Better integration. Mac support. Language support. Just wait and see. But, in the meantime, go see what I’ve been up to!
