Happy Spring everyone! We’re going to celebrate this glorious season with a rebirth of sorts.

Over the past year, Providence-based BatchBlue has completely redesigned and rebuilt its venerable Batchbook “social CRM” web & mobile applications from the ground up. This is a major undertaking, made even harder by having to seamlessly transition the thousands of paying Batchbook users over to the new system.

At the April Geek Dinner this coming Wednesday, CEO Pamela O’Hara will give a sneak peek at their new baby, and discuss the opportunities and challenges such a huge “rewrite” entails.

Bonus: Batchblue is one of founding members and a driving force behind the phenomenally popular Small Business Web – a network of Internet software companies that serve small businesses (members include everyone from Freshbooks to Google). Pamela will give an update on recent exciting developments within the SBW.
