It's been a while, but we want to give you an update on what's happening with Verb. There haven't been any updates for some time, but that's because some changes are being made that we want to get right before we unleash them on you, our beloved users. Here are a few things that you can look forward to in the coming updates:

Activity Feeds
Tasks and projects will have activity feeds of who has been doing what and when. No more guessing or trawling through lists to see what has changed.

API
Verb will have a simple API to allow the creation of 3rd party applications that interact with Verb. This will begin in a very basic form. Think of it as API Lite.

File Uploads
You will be able to upload files and attach them to tasks and projects.

iCal Feeds
Take your tasks and view them in your favourite calendar application (iCal, Google Calendar etc.).

Mobile
An optomized version of Verb for mobile phones. This will be web based and hopefully will allow you to do everything you can do with the desktop version on your mobile.

Better Communication
We are improving the way you communicate inside Verb. The current messaging system is basically just email, only not as good. Coming soon is the ability to comment on tasks and projects and have better conversations about your work.

Pro: Paid accounts
We are going to introduce paid accounts as well. Let us make it very clear that the core of Verb will stay free. Everything you can do currently will stay in the unpaid version. What will go into the paid version is optional extras. Things like more file upload space. By contributing to Verb you will also be supporting the continued development of new features.

New Name
It looks like we will have a new name for Verb soon too. There are a number of reasons that we will be changing the name that we won't go into here now, but don't worry we're not going crazy with the name. In fact, we think you'll like it.

We've also fixed a lot of little annoying UI issues too. These are just some of the things that are happening. More features will probably be added, and there's a chance that some won't be ready for a while, but we hope to do a major update soon.

Finally, stay tuned to find out a bit more about who's behind Verb.
