Featured Client - Jim Bull, CEO of Brass Monkey
Jim Bull, CEO Brass Monkey |
Brass Monkey is at its core a networking library for interconnecting mobile devices and computers over a local WiFi network. Brass Monkey’s primary use is as a controller, where a mobile device, say an iPhone, uses its built-in controls to communicate to a web based experience (Flash/Flex, Unity3D).
We are addressing the lack of interoperability and speeds of connecting various mobile devices, laptop and desktop computers, large screen displays and web browsers. Devices that have different operating systems usually cannot communicate easily with each other without using proprietary software and/or inefficient web-based networking protocols. Methods used currently to connect multiple devices together typically implement an intermediary server, and thus are slow and experience latency, making it prohibitive to use for instant feedback and control. Some other solutions have built-in peer to peer networking, but still lack the responsiveness and instant feedback expected from something like a game controller. Other implementations use Bluetooth for connectivity but this does not allow for connecting to many types of devices and its range is severely limited. In addition, none of the current solutions in existence allow for low latency experiences running in a web browser, thus making it a requirement for the end user to install an additional program on his/her computer. We have solved these problems by removing the server and keeping the connections local to the users’ network, while allowing realtime control over experiences running in a web browser. In the process, we have created possibilities for new and revolutionary user experiences, allowing for large numbers of people to communicate in real time across WiFi networks.

Lessons from an Entrepreneur: Guilty of Not Branding My Own Company
1 year, 28 days, 5 hours, 37 minutes, and 6 seconds ago I jumped head first into the world of business owner. I had always been an entrepreneur, creating and developing for other people/organizations, but now it was my turn.
Connect your customers and prospects to each other. One of the best things you can do as a young company is to foster word-of-mouth conversations among your earliest customers. Whether you do it on Facebook or on your own site, it's important to invite your customers to talk to each other and share ideas. Allow them to guide one another on how they use your product or service. Not only will you have the opportunity to learn what people like and don't like about your product, you may end up with a bunch of people you can ask to help you.
Make the time, build in the role, or hire the right partner. You can do all this yourself if you have the right time, energy and commitment. If you can’t muster that, give this role to one of your first hires. If you’re less than comfortable identifying that person within your own company, (hint: it’s not an intern or a kid right out of school; Digital Natives may know all the technology, but they often lack the strategic chops and the ability to create truly compelling content) retain the services of a public relations agency with real experience in social influence. Make sure that if you go this route, you ask for case studies as evidence that the PR team assigned to your business actually practices what it preaches.
Side Bar: I found an article Blogging advice for people who “have no time to blog” that echoed some of the advise that Ed shared. Enjoy!

My Camera’s are NOT Enjoying the Hot Weather as Much as I Am!
This past week I was lucky to have six photo sessions that ranged from senior pictures, a graduation celebration, engagement announcements, 1st birthdays and family photos. Most of these photo sessions were out in the elements and as the temperatures rose, so did little problems with my digital cameras, which I did not anticipate.
The article attached was very helpful to me. Whether a professional or just a lover of photography, these tips should help you capture those summer images that will last a lifetime.
