Developer HTTPS Access, Early-Access Program and App-Buttons craze

Hi guys, its been a while since we last chatted so its time for a quick round of updates.

First of all - you should totally Follow Appsto on Twitter, its great to have our community active in a real-time fashion on Twitter.

HTTPS Access: As more developers recently started using our Analytics Dashboard we've been getting more and more requests to support HTTPS access. I'm happy to update you that the Developer area has been supporting HTTPS for a week now and everything's been smooth. We've switched the header link for the Dashboard to the HTTPS version as well so just remember to update your bookmarks.

Early Access program: We're creating a program where we will share info on products that are still in development with a select group of developers. Our focus is getting high-quality feedback on some of the new product directions we are working on as well as enlisting launch partners for these products. To sign-up for the early-access program please email us at info@appsto.com and tell us about the apps you've already built.

App-Buttons Craze: Our monkeys have been rendering Custom App-Buttons like crazy over the past few weeks and wow has it been overwhelming. We wanted to say thanks and show our love by sharing some of those uses:
