Martin did a great talk last night on his Mac shareware. He developed a sync program (MySync) which was acquired by a reseller and now he is working on a multi-function iSight utility. Martin suggested that this route is just as lucrative for him as being in a bank-consultancy role in London.
After Martin finished Paul Silver mentioned that for November’s Digital Festival he is planning a ‘hackday’. Details to come.
John and I also want to hold a ‘£5 App Day’ in the Festival towards the end of November. We will probably include an SEO WorkShop, a Marketing WorkShop, possibly a Sales WorkShop and some deconstructions of boot-strapped local tech companies. We want to look ‘back then, to now, and where next?’.
Vicky mentioned that Madgex are recruiting – full details are up on the WiredSussex Jobs Page. The jobs include a UI Experience consultant, C# programmer, Web designer and Office manager.
Our 7th event will probably be led by Jeremy Keith talking about a community he has built over a number of years. Details will follow on the five pound app site.
