The Exit from the Comfort Zone
Written in Events, Pure Business - on Thursday, March 11, 2010 23:21 - 1 CommentHi guys,
We’re on a trip to learning right now. We learn from you, the everyday users. But this is a new approach for us, IT specialists and developers.
Product Development
Since our startup began, we faced a lot of technical challenges and mostly put our efforts on creating a prototype for you guys. We failed with the private alpha release and we continued to improve it until we changed 70% of it. Now we have the SDK ready, the free developer accounts in place, documentations and a demo of a collaborative application, developed on ActionScript, our primary developing language. But it’s not enough.
Customer Development
Now, we’re onto a new trip. We plan to learn. In an disorganized way, investing 70% of our time networking and searching for people that have the need that we’re solving. It’s like most of today’s entrepreneurs called it “the exit from the comfort zone“.
The belief that people don’t like it when you offer to much is a fact. We tried, again and again and again, to contact people in order to attract them in using our technology. We didn’t take into account, that perhaps it’s better to offer little of what’s important to them, not much of unimportant stuff.
If you think we consider ourselves damned by now, think again. We had a vision and we had to concrete it. But now, it’s time for others to speak and to visualize their needs implemented into our service. We’re looking forward to that.
That’s all for now.
The Team

Ok. Cristi here. Adventure started a few weeks before NetCamp. We met strangly at a bus station(knowing each other faces from some physics class in university), and started talking about different software projects. Simple as easy, Bogdan told me about TWIP, and how we can make users collaborate entirely, with no restrictions imposed whatsoever , inside one framework.
After a while, we skimmed a few basic ideas, focusing entirely on collaboration. As we are both tech guys, tons of ideas immediately showed up, and we both shaked hands friendly…TWIP must become reality.
This is the team!
The greatest thing about XTWIP is that it can easily be attached as a layer over your BI or MiddleWare applications [...] I believe this is the ultimate step a company should take in its efforts to increase productivity.
