March Newsletter

Eighteen Intelligence is my new Internet consultancy. Thanks in advance if you can spare a minute to learn more about it.

The Past

I have been building Web apps for about 17 years, most of that time leading small teams of engineers at consultancies. I met many great friends, including you. Sometimes friends would nudge me to start my own company. Recently, the time felt right, so I took their advice.

The Present

The formalities of starting the business are wrapped up. I founded 18INT on four values (truth, independence, computer automation, joy) and the core mission to free you from unnecessary constraints through programming. Now I’m ready to live and breath these principles. Clients recently commented on my speed and expertise, using words like “most excellent” and “awesome”. I hope to improve my service through more detailed feedback.

Our Future

I would love to work with you (again)! I have projects close to launch, I’ve got bandwidth to spare, and I’m ready to expand the business. How can I help you?One of my specialties is putting up with the ever-changing Facebook API. Ask me about HTML5 apps optimized for Android devices. I’m also expanding capabilities to include browser extensions for Chrome and Firefox.

The Name

Most of us know how few .com domains remain available. Did you know many domains with digits in them are still easy to register? As I brainstormed names, my youth spent playing Dungeons & Dragons came to mind. In this roleplaying game, you might find yourself as a magic user frying monsters with lightning bolts. Your key stat would be intelligence with a maximum value of 18.

 

I appreciate your attention. I hope to hear from you. If you don’t care to receive any further emails, please use the unsubscribe link below. Otherwise, I will occasionally share tips and trends via these emails — less about me, more about info that helps you.

 

Thanks!
