Hi
The spellr.us team are excited to launch a stable production version of the spellr.us system - spellr.us v2.0 - this launches 26 February Australian time (sometime in the morning).
As a fun exercise in the wisdom of the crowds we want to ask the spellr.us fans how long you will think it will take for our first commercial customer to sign-up with spellr.us - 1 hour from launch? 5 days? 20 minutes?
Let us know your predictions in this blog - the person that is the closest will win a $US100 Amazon.com voucher.
BONUS: If you are the closest predictor time wise AND get the plan choice to match with the first customer we will up the Gift Voucher to $150!

I think that it will take 8.5 hours from launch for you to have your first credit card paying customer! I think it will be for a 24 hour plan.
GOOD LUCK!
Are employees (including family members of employees) allowed to enter?
If so i’m betting less than an hour from launch to ka-ching. Let’s say… 55 minutes.
26 minutes and 14 seconds.
Plan = Zebra ($24/mth)
Hmm… 15 minutes on the Zebra plan.
6 hours; leopard plan.
Great concept Kevin. I hope you enjoy the J-curve express!!
3 hours is my prediction.
I wish you all the best with this new venture.
33 minutes 24 seconds…
I reckon no more than 10 minutes.
Given that this is the smartest thing to happen to website quality assurance in…well, forever, I think it will be five hours or less until someone signs up for the Leopard package.
~90 minutes & Elephant
Zebra in 1hr 43 min. Go get em!
i think you ALREADY have it !
24 hours - Followed by 1 every 10 mins :).
Great site, great product.
Congrats to David Einstein of http://www.portraitkingdom.com/ who provided the closest prediction. We received our first paying customer at 10:45am on Friday 27 February. Approximately 22 hours after launch. David was the closest. We haven’t though quite reached his second prediction of 1 new sign-up every 10 minutes though.
David wins a $100 Amazon.com gift voucher. Enjoy.
