Well it’s finally arrived, Sqip launched with a bit of a whimper as there are many of its services still to roll out in the coming months. What you do get at the moment is a somewhat limited connection on the left hand navigation bar to the various portals. The mixer social portal didn’t want to play and a few of the other links were slow or weren’t responsive.
Overall its early days yet and for sure they still have a lot of bugs in the system to clear out. It looks very nice and shiny with great graphics and that new fresh look, but they still have a ways to go to beat Google or Yahoo.
Twitter alternative? Chitter
I don’t know yet as with a lot of the other portals, this one isn’t operational at the moment.
I reckon they should have given it more time and got more core services online before they launched.
So check it out for yourself and give us some feedback

Much more to follow…
Sqip will be available in multiple languages starting in July.
Excellent breakdown of the launch. They couldve waited longer but they have been dawdling about the launch for quite a while.
Biggest issue is that the main site takes waaay tooo looong to load.
And at first the referrer code auto-defaulted to SQIPCOM but they have fixed that.
I have not seen my downline grow AT ALL since launch, and I wonder if they are having issues with updating or reporting.
P.S. check out sqip TODAY its finally live. Tell em’ Noah sent you!
