The Podio launch in San Francisco
27Mar2011 Filed under: podio Author: Casper FabriciusI have just returned from a full week of work, socializing and excitement in San Francisco with my colleagues from Podio, leading up to official launch of Podio: The product is now open for everyone to try out, and a physical store is open in San Francisco where people can walk right in and get started with Podio. I don’t think anyone ever done something quite like to launch a software product, and it has generated a fair amount of PR with articles in TechCrunch, FastCompany, Inc. Magazine and Mashable just to mention a few.
I joined the Podio team just three months ago, and leading up to this launch we have been working our asses off to provide a top-quality product to make a serious impact on the U.S. market and the rest of the world. The culmination of all this hard work was this launch week in San Francisco and of course the launch party Thursday which more than 300 people showed up for. There is plenty of photos from the week on the Podio account on Flickr.
I love web development
Hello, I'm Casper Fabricius. I have developed for the web for 10 years, and have been enjoying Ruby on Rails for the past 5.
My experience covers communities, shopping solutions, multi-language sites, heavy back-end lifting and a wide selection of more traditional websites. I like to integrate Ruby with Java and .NET through JRuby and IronRuby when it makes sense. I am passionate about test- and behavior-driven development, but at the same time I am pragmatic and believe in getting things done.
I live in Copenhagen, Denmark, where I work for a fantastic company: Podio. I do not currently take on freelance assignments.
