First, I want to thank Luca Passani for speaking at RoNewMedia. We at StarTech are members of the WURFL community for several years and we appreciate Luca’s efforts in managing this vibrant community.
What is StarTech? It’s the first .ro company that took mobile web seriously. That is.. the web for mobile phones. [Slide 2].
And this includes them all: starting from smartphones, pdas, iphones, androids, to older nokias, motorolas and so on. Even phones that are not “compatible” with Vodafone Live or Orange World.
So our challenge can be expressed like: your site on any mobile.
Well, it happened a while ago. After we got back from America we had to make a choice. Either backpacking to Indochina, programming c# on the way for smokes and booze, or settling down in Scandinavia and marrying some rich middle aged swedish chicks.
Yep.. that’s when it happened. I’m still not sure why, but we remained home and we suddenly started programming like crazy. I remember that once, back when I was employed, I had punched out the card after twenty hours.. And I didn’t Counter Strike! But this time, after twenty four hours of continuous typing, my brains were fine but my wrists were killing me!
So after countless sleepless nights, hectoliters of irish coffee and too much tobacco, we got a very powerful mobile web platform that we still use today. Although we haven’t done anything really spectacular since, we got some big local clients and we learned a lot.
Let’s see how we’ll manage from now on.
