Projects

Overview:  PadPressed helps content publishers of any size make their web based publication act like a native iPad application (swipe to advance articles, touch navigation, accelerometer aware column resizing, and more).  PadPressed works with your existing CMS and theme.  Formatting for the iPad only happens when your content is accessed by a user from their iPad.

Current Status: Profitable with paying customers and fully launched.

Overview: Genevine is the simple and private way to share your family’s memories.  We’re now living digital lives where our memories are measured in gigabytes, not megabytes.  Current options are either too general, public, and/or difficult to use.  We’re the 21st century equivalent of your family’s shoebox.

Current Status: Beta operational with paying customers.  Future launch pending.  Developed with Mark Bao.

Overview:  Cloudomatic is working on providing the monetization and distribution layer for SaaS Applications.  Infrastructure companies such as Amazon Web Services, SimpleGeo, Rackspace, MySQL, Zend,etc. have made it cost effective and easy for startups to build web apps.  We’re working on what comes next: making money and getting more customers with your web apps.

Current Status: Operational.  Paying customers and testers lined up for first piece of infrastructure, Cloudomatic(flow), a simple way to provide an affiliate program for your web app.

Overview: Publictivity is the online social workspace that allows small businesses to easily share information.  Instead of using excel as a psuedo-database, we created Publictivity to allow companies to easily share data such as contacts, files, links, or custom defined structures with each other. Publictivity was founded in late 2006 after originating out of theweblogwire.com.  We received a small amount of seed funding and named to one of Florida’s top young companies for 2007 by the Enterprise Development Corporation.  I moved to Silicon Valley in 2008 to further expand the company.

Current Status: Deadpooled.

Overview:  popshiz is a fun little side project that I created with Mark Bao.  It originated as IsHilarySwankHot.com, which was an extension of TheOffice episode where everyone asked if Hilary Swank Is Hot.  The site received tens of thousands of visitors within 24 hours.  We eventually morphed the site into popshiz.com, which would put a simple yes or no poll with a short article related to a popular/trending pop culture topic.

Current Status: Operational with traffic, but content is no longer being updated on a regular basis.  When I have more time, I’d love to expand on the concept.
