As of a couple hours ago, the limited BETA of Scriptovia has been released. The reason I say “limited” BETA is because all of the BETA features are not yet available. These features including document viewing within the browser, rankings and awards, and badges will be available within the next couple of weeks.

I also can’t stress enough that this is still a work in progress. If you decide to use the site right now you might find many bugs, but most of them have a workaround. Please email me at aseem@scriptovia.com if you find any critical bugs. The reason we decided to release the site with so much missing functionality is because we want to make sure students can use the core components of Scriptovia before the end of the school year.

The data from ThinkEssay (essays, members, and comments) has not yet been migrated into the Scriptovia database. If you are a current member of ThinkEssay, I urge you to wait a couple of days until we get the data migrated before signing up for Scriptovia. This way you can just use your ThinkEssay account with all your old documents and settings.

Let us know what you think and bear with us while we work out the bugs!
