myVBO
Background
I serve as the Vice President of Engineering at myVBO, a web application development company that takes ideas from concept to production.
History
MyVBO started life as a web application.
The myVBO app (my Virtual Business Office) was a powerful business application created by people who know business. It brought together all your business needs into one place, including purchasing, stock quotes, Quickbooks, and social media.
I joined the myVBO team in March of 2009. My contributions to the project include:
- Designed a full featured multi-account Twitter client with scheduling.
- Created versatile multi-environment configuration system.
- Designed and developed a versatile cross-platform short-polling and batch processing mechanism for dynamic data updates.
- Developed a robust platform API (both REST and RPC) as well as ActionScript 3 consumer client libraries.
- Created an extensible authentication system ready to accept users from multiple sources.
- Developed a user avatar system.
- Also contributed to: user profiles, product search, news infrastructure, product planning, billing, user interface design and operations.
The myVBO app is no longer available. However, the team lives on.
