Urtak Blog

Squarespace is one of the world’s leading web publishing platforms, with tens of thousands of of subscribers.

Recently, we had the opportunity to have a nice lunch with Dane Atkinson, Squarespace’s CEO. One of the things Dane stressed was the need to make “self-provisioning” of our technology easier.

Next month, we’re hoping to release several new features which will make Urtak much more user-friendly. We’ll also create a How To section, with step by step explanations for embedding Urtak on Blogger, WordPress, TypePad, Tumblr, Facebook, and of course, Squarespace.

Here is an example of what that will look like.
