Blog post have been taking a back seat while I’ve busy with Summer of Code, Free The Net, FooCamp and Webstock *sigh* . We’ll be introducing via the blog a number of technologies over the next few weeks.

We’ve been busy over summer (as well as Summer of Code projects) working on updates of existing products, improving ZoomIn and finalising a couple new tools and products.

Coming soon

• Fresh maps with all latest street information
• A geo-content management tool
• New Map visualisation api.
• A demo site feature some of the client work from the last 6 months.
• And more tools….

Starting to think about Foo camp at the end of the week… Paul Gold and I will be up there, looking forward to geek out and catch up with people from around the country.

We’ll be talking about:

• Summer of Code and student internships - How we can make this a national programme
• Data Visualisation
• Geo-location
• Web optimisation and how to make your site fast

We’ve shifted the ZoomIn website from our hosting provider in the US to NZ.

In the lead up to Xmas, we had a number of issues with our hosting provider in the US, and we made the decision to move the site back to NZ. The site has been up since the weekend, and is noticeably faster

We moved office over the weekend. We’re now located on Willis St above Roti restaurant. (Across the road from Catalyst and Ascent. Hi Guys !)

Our new contact details are as follows:

This came as a very pleasant surprise: In last night’s NZ Open Source Awards, ProjectX won the “Open Source Use in Business” category, and NZ Summer of Code took out the “Open Source Use in Education” award.

We’ll write some more soon about the advantages we’ve found to using open source, and some specific software that we can’t do without; but for the moment we’re all just rather stunned!

We’ve just been notified that ZoomIn has been nominated in the Open source in Business category and Summer of Code has been nominated in the Open source in Education. Woo Hoo ! Thanks to the NZ Open Source Association

Thanks for the recognition for ZoomIn and Summer of Code. We’re not resting with what’ve got. We’re working really hard on some major  improvements to ZoomIn and launching Summer of Code 2.0.

Kudo’s to our CHQ cousins Silverstripe in making the final selection also!
