When it comes to pies, I’m partial to blackberries! And, my tastes do not change when it comes to Smart Phones and hand held devices. The Blackberry® is my favorite! So, it is no surprise that I decided to go with the Blackberry® platform to design my mobile business app!

You might think that BlackBerry® is a messaging device, but the newest models incorporate other Smart Phone technology and can compete with other popular Smart Phone devices for flexibility and reach! Internet faxing, web browsing, multi–lingual messaging, auto–text with auto–correct and other text features like shortcuts, FaceBook and other social networking updates, and support for Google Messenger, ICQ, Windows Live Messenger, and eBay.

Take it from Trudy! I have a lot to learn. When my colleague, Alex, told me he was using Joomla, I thought it might be a new energy drink. While you won’t find Joomla on the shelves of a grocery store, it WILL energize your company.

Joomla is an award–winning Content Management System. Let me explain why it is so special. It can be deployed on nearly any operating system or platform, which makes it pretty flexible and useful for CMS implementations. It also has a lot of tools for web designers and developers to efficiently create CMS sites and clients using Joomla sites easily manage their site after implementation is complete.

My friend Cynthia cannot wrap her head around technology infrastructure. She knows that IT infrastructure is the foundation of all organizations. How does she know? Because the IT department tells her so! Beyond that, she doesn’t have a clue. Her IT staff and IT consultants told her that without an effective infrastructure her team can’t develop or exchange information, nor can it protect its competitive and proprietary data or build knowledge repositories to grow revenue and succeed in its market of choice.

Cynthia was scared out of her wits by these predictions of doom! She wanted to do something constructive about that old, creaky IT infrastructure. She hired a team of IT consultants with the skills and knowledge to remotely maintain and support her infrastructure.

Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you know that the Android is not a being from another planet. It is a smart phone mobile operating system. The Android (Droid to his buddies) is a Google business, and supports thousands of apps, including third party developed and certified apps.

If you are a software geek, you can develop proprietary features and extensions. Think Java, XML and C++, with a SQLite relational data base management system and an SGL graphics engine. Take your pick! Developers can adapt the platform to VGA, 2D and 3D graphics and generic smart phone interfaces.

EM-Blog-OffshoreOutsourcing

I’ve heard all the excuses. Outsource to an offshore IT company and pay a lot of money for rotten communication and a yucky ending to your project or relationship. That is SO yesterday! Today’s most reputable offshore outsourcing IT vendors employ the best resources and serve custom software development needs, ongoing support and maintenance and everything in between.

Not every vendor gets an A+ in service or experience, so do your homework. Find a vendor with great references; one that is located in a business-friendly environment that provides the best IT resources, a dependable infrastructure and a positive government and business relationship. Find a vendor with experience handling client relationships across time zones; one that can handle multi-cultural, multi-lingual relationships; one with cutting edge technology, quality and leadership.
