Welcome to the new Matrices.net Updates channel! I wanted to experiment with channels on telegram, they are the kind where you can get news or announcements real-time to your Telegram client without it being a "public chat" format.
Eventually this channel will be available to the public and I will use it to deliver public updates, such as when new tutorials are released to the public and when new features are added to the website. For now it has been shared with my closest colleagues and through my patreon campaign, https://www.patreon.com/Matrices
My Patreon subscribers get a lot of early-access updates and information first through Patreon directly. Once I publish tutorials that are later released to the public it will be announced in this Channel so you can know when you are able to share with your friends!
When the new Matrices.net website is live, this channel will have much more activity, and it will be linked to the website and made public via twitter and other social media.
Thank you for sharing your interest and support in the things I do! ❤️

Today's The Day!!!
I am extremely proud to inform you all that I have new hosting set up, and I initiated the transfer! There may be periods where my domain is down today while the nameservers for my domain migrate the information. It can be up to 24 hours.
In the mean time http://sarahoward.dotster.com/ is a temporary place where you can view the new website as the domain migrates. — Things are uploading RIGHT NOW, so if it looks "ugly" or empty, broken images etc, it is because things are still actively uploading, its literally going live as we speak! I have to wait an hour before I can access certain things, but I am extremely excited to share these live updates with you!
