FindTechs.com Redesign

Author: mprokes

The findtechs.com redesign is underway to be more commercially friendly. While the current design was technically nice, it was not commercially viable for communicating with the people who we need to communicate with. So as a result the site main page has been re-designed so far, I will also be re-doing the rest of the pages. The backend for findtechs is done, so it is simply a matter of migrating the current javascript to the new look and updating a few things.

We should be ready to go after that point, the site deadline wise is way past is point, and some core features were dropped, but one way or another we will get a release out there so we can start doing business already! One of the nice things is that the code is all custom, and the platform was designed around some very nice core concepts (scaling, open architecture, SOA oriented, very low technical debt). So I am excited to get it out there, and get cracking on things.

Hopefully in a couple weeks I can report that Webactive is in business!

Sumpernet!

Author: mprokes

I went to the sumpernet! meetup last night, and it rocked! I was able to meet business professionals and aspiring professionals (like myself), talk about issues, and how to succeed in business and marketing. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking to get into entrepreneurship. I learned tons about how people work, and get work done.
