The Start of the Widgeo.us Blog

Readers, both imaginary and non-existent. I am excited to be the first to write on this blog. No, actually the others are all too busy with their work and I had just finish mine — designing and coding the theme for this blog. I have even bought a WordPress Navy Blue Hoodie to reward myself for the time I have spent with WordPress for the past one week.

2046430875_a01f4c6d88.jpg I think it’s a nice and good-looking thing to wear since it’s getting cold here and I get to show people how much I love WordPress. Another thing about WordPress that gives me a good feeling is how each release is named after a famous jazz musician. I believe developers who love music and jazz are able to build genuinely good products with a passion like the kind they have for music. I have been using WordPress since version 1 and prior to that, b2\cafelog, its precursor.

For a quick introduction, I am Aen, the Art Director and UI Designer of Widgeo.us. Being the creative guy and a WordPress junkie, I designed the blog and made myself its blogmaster and now this blog is like my flesh and blood.

What is Widgeo.us? In a nutshell, it is a tool we are building to allow people to build tools which unify multiple communication channels into one central core. I know this description sounds rather vague and geeky and you can barely picture the actual product in your mind. If you want to know more, this blog is where you should be checking for news and updates. Subscribing to our RSS Feed is a good idea. You can also hop on to Widgeo.us and sign up our newsletter for a chance to become a beta tester.

This is my short introduction of the Widgeo.us blog. As for other stuff like development updates and Widgeo.us related news, I’ll leave it to U-Zyn and Kah Wee, the programmer guys and Ridzuan, our man in the suit, metaphorically speaking… I have never seen him wear one.
