Hello beta testers! Welcome to our latest beta release, SW-0.9.2 aka "Ash". Most of the updates that we made won't be obvious since this version was more about fighting off bugs in our code and stabilizing our platform, but there are a couple of exciting interface changes that you'll notice:

• Full text input for reporting symptoms and illnesses
• Option to post your status to Facebook and Twitter

The full text input is a sign of things to come (eg, full text searching on the map). For now, you can share any and all symptoms with us, but you'll still only be able to view the map and forecasts of the symptoms and illnesses that we're tracking, which will continue to grow. If you report symptoms and illnesses that we aren't tracking, it will not fall on deaf ears... that information will be processed by our algorithm to automatically make suggestions for expanding our tracking capabilities. In other words, the more input we get from you, the faster we'll evolve to track what matters most to you (another sign of things to come!).

As always, thanks for being a beta tester and keep the feedback coming!
