As of this morning, just shy of 2 weeks officially included on the Facebook application map, “Are You Normal?” has added over 25,000 users, making it one of the fastest growing apps on Facebook. That’s an average of 6 users per minute, or roughly one new user every 10 seconds. This morning it hit page one for “recently popular”. We’re pretty pleased, to say the least, as there are over 5,000 applications out there. It was a big moment when we pulled ahead of “Pee on your friends”, and now we just keep moving up! “Are You Normal?” falls under the just-for-fun category of extremely memorable and meaningful ways to waste time in Facebook!
And we’ve introduced a fresh, new design, making it easier for you to move around the app and see your test results and those of your friends. Something else of importance we would like share with you: every week we will be adding a new quiz to test your normalcy. Up this week: “Are you a normal Facebook user?”. (Is anyone?)
As always, we’d like to hear feedback from our users and the community at large. Feel free to leave us a note or post in our Kinzin Builders group and we’d be happy to help you out or answer your questions and suggestions.
Welcome to The Kinzin Blog!
We’ve been busy! After our Beta launch in the Spring of this year, and the support and community began to build, we went back into our Kinzin cave to work on more features and tools to provide our growing community additional neat ways to connect and share with families online.
The “Zin Magazine” is very much still in existence, but we decided to give it a new home (coming very soon…). It will continue to be a place for the Kinzin community at large, where you will find community news and items of interest, plus a ton of helpful family tips and tricks. Some of the content found here will be posted there as well, and vice versa. We want to keep the whole family in the loop!
The Kinzin Blog will be a place for us to share all of our own news with you and the fun projects and features we’ve been working on and unleashing to the masses!
Our own Kinzin Family are more than happy to share our Kinzin experiences with you. (Plus we’ve been told we may have to move out if we don’t!) We will be letting you in on our work and play experiences, both fantastic, and sometimes not so fantastic, as part of great team of people in continuing to find meaningful ways for families to connect online. It’s what we do best.
Kinzin has been chosen as one of the three finalists for a Canadian New Media Award: “Excellence in Social Media Applications”! I’m thrilled that the selection committee has chosen Kinzin, and proud to be mentioned together with the other finalists. The team here at Kinzin is working hard to produce fun and safe social networking environments for parents and families, and it’s great to get them some well-deserved recognition.
