Approach
Our approach to technology development
We're excited about how recently emerged or emerging technologies can enable fewer people to do more, faster, and better than in the past. We're also excited about new paradigms of data availability and access: web services, data APIs, widget architectures, and the like, and the kinds of problems that can be solved with them. At the same time, we recognize the limitations of these tools, and aren't afraid to build our own when necessary.
We move quickly, attempt to fail fast (if at all), and move forward with what we learned from our experience. Our approach...
- is data driven
- is experimental
- is user-focused
- is leveraged
- utilizes rapid iterations
You may be interested in working with us if you have any of the following interests, each of which reflects some aspect of the products we're developing:
- novel user interaction design (over email, IM, web, etc.)
- AJAXy web development
- rapid prototyping and development with rails and other large levers
- new paradigms of data availability and access (OpenSocial, etc.)
- distributed systems and large datasets
- statistics
- algorithms
- NLP and machine learning
- recommendation systems
- usability research
- online community building
- data-driven marketing
