New website and a new blog

change text size: A A A

posted  3/18/2010 7:23:47 PM  by Vivek Thakur -  Views: [1184] 

Finally after years of having a static website, I moved on and used our own social networking product Communifire to create my personal website.

And ofcourse I love the changes! Communifire means not only easy content modification, but also a powerful and flexible content management system with complete RSS support. In case you would like to use Communifire for managing your own personal website, do let me know as I have some free non-commercial licenses available for use.

Here in my personal blog, I would be writing about my own perceptions and views about life in general. For my technical blog you can visit CodeAsp.Net here: http://www.codeasp.net/blogs/vivek_iit

I am one of those computer nerds who loves playing guitar. Professionally, I am the co-founder of a small software firm, Axero Solutions, based in California, USA. Our company creates software for social networking and business collaboration using Communifire, a unique platform which helps companies create external as well as internal collaboration networks. I am also the author of the book: Application Architecture and Design in ASP.NET by Packt Publications (2008). I am a big follower and advocate of Chaos Theory in software systems and management (SCRUM methodology).
