Time and Expense Tracking On the Go CurdBee Mobile for iPhone, Android and Blackberry

Las Vegas, NV (PRWEB) February 23, 2012

CurdBee, an online invoicing service aimed at freelancers and SMEs launched CurdBee Mobile, a platform independent mobile web interface to its popular service that supports invoices, estimates and time and expense tracking. CurdBee Mobile will be usable on browsers running on Apple’s iOS, Google’s Android and RIM’s Blackberry platforms. It is designed to provide the users of the world’s most popular smart phones and tablets their best mobile invoicing experience yet.

While new devices like Apples 4S, Samsungs Galaxy S II and the RIMs Blackberry 9780 will run CurdBee Mobile just fine, the team behind the application also want to make sure that the service should run well on all recent smart phones. Accessibility is key, said Sameera Hettiarachchi, Lead Developer behind CurdBee Mobile. We want to give as many people as possible access to the invoicing and time and expense tracking features we have worked so hard on, and going mobile via a web standards compliant, accessible web app seemed like the best way to do that.

CurdBee Mobile is being released following massive demand from its existing user base. The service is popular among freelancers and SMEs the world over and many of its users had been requesting a mobile version for a while now. We are glad to be able to deliver this functionality now, said Sameera. A sizable percentage of our users are already using CurdBee via their smart phones and were sure that this mobile interface will only help increase that number.

CurdBee is developed by Vesess, a Sri Lankan web design company, and this made their mobile efforts that much more meaningful. In a region with over 600 million mobile phones, delivering content to handhelds seemed like a no brainer. Though CurdBee Mobile is optimized for smart phones, it will also work on many other less expensive phones as well. As a South Asian company, making our product mobile friendly was a top priority, said Lankitha Wimalarathna, CEO of Vesess. With more affordable handheld devices becoming available and better connectivity being rolled out throughout Asia, the chances are high that more and more people will discover and use CurdBee via their mobiles.

Manufacturers in India and China are bringing out phones and tablets that are becoming more affordable. The majority of them run the popular Android OS, and the Vesess team has kept this in mind as they approached the development of CurdBee Mobile. We thought that SMEs in South Asia could benefit from being able to access CurdBee from them, said Sameera. As such, making CurdBee work on Android has been a major focus for us.

While shipping separate apps for each platform was something the team considered, they eventually decided that focusing their efforts on one fluid web application made more sense when it came to feature enhancements and maintenance. CurdBee Mobile makes use of next generation web technologies such as HTML 5, CSS 3 and JavaScript, and to the end user will look and feel just like a native application, said Sameera. Ultimately, we want to deliver the best possible user experience across all platforms, and a web app was the most reliable way to do that.

Priding itself on its user interfaces, the Vesess team hopes that many freelancers and SMEs will experience CurdBee Mobiles sleek new look in the days and weeks to come. Weve put a lot of work into optimizing the interface for Mobile Time Tracking and Expenses, said Lankitha. We realized that most people will use CurdBee Mobile for on the go Time and Expense Tracking, and did our best to make these functionalities really shine.

CurdBee Mobile is available for free to all CurdBee users via curdbee.com/mobile. CurdBee offers three tiers of service, and while its PRO and BIG accounts are priced at $ 5/mo and $ 20/mo respectively, users of its FREE service will have unrestricted access to the new mobile interface. As a SME ourselves, weve always been passionate about helping small businesses get off the ground, said Lankitha. We think everyone will enjoy our new mobile interface and restricting it to paid users is just not something wed be comfortable doing.

About Vesess

Vesess is a Sri Lankan based web application development company that believes in small teams, solid development and great design using Web Standards and Free Software. Beginning as a small design firm in Colombo in 2004, Vesess grew with the web, and today maintains CurdBee, a popular online billing software application for small businesses and freelancers.

MyAjaxApp.com Launches AjaxDB A New Multi-Tenant Database Service Designed for Ajax Applications

Montreal, Quebec (PRWEB) February 28, 2012

With the release of MyAjaxApp.com, a new opportunity for supporting data-driven Ajax applications is launched. MyAjaxApp.com is now providing an easy, affordable and scalable way to construct a database that is instantly available for JavaScript programmers. This system is aimed towards small to medium sized companies who have been unable to build or use a database system, due to cost, infrastructure and technical barriers.

To create a SaaS web service that has the potential to be offered to a lot of customers, a non multi-tenant system will not be effective. Building a SaaS offering that can scale is a huge undertaking for development and is practically impossible for most people, due to its high cost. MyAjaxApp.com believes they have the solution to this in AjaxDB. AjaxDB is a true multi-tenant database system, or database-as-a-service, and is built from a new Multi-tenant Poly-schema data model designed and created by Jerry Visser. Our system is multi-tenant right out of the box, and so is your use of the system, says Jerry, AjaxDB doesnt even know how to be single tenant. Our database service is multi-tenant at the table level, table schema level and at the table view level.

Typically, database systems are designed for engineers and require complicated code to connect, create and manage information, even for simple solutions. There are less and less skilled programmers, yet all traditional database providers continually target engineers. Using AjaxDB greatly simplifies the development of data-driven web applications and SaaS offerings because it does not require database administrators or software engineers. Jerry Visser states, We designed AjaxDB and the ajaxPlugin specifically for web designers, rather than programmers. We wanted the people who create web pages to also have the power to easily design and integrate the database with it. This will make it so much easier to build and launch a new web service. Now, anyone with JavaScript skills can build a database too.

AjaxDB is a database-as-a-service where there is no software installation ever, and no software development kits. Other providers still require the download and installation of software on the customer server. MyAjaxApp.com provides a JavaScript library, ajaxPlugin, which creates a database connection to AjaxDB across domains. Also included on MyAjaxApp.com is a point-and-click online database management system, where a designer creates tables, tenant categories, tenants, XML subscriptions, and can input/modify database records. All this makes creating a database table easy for any web developer and takes only milliseconds to become instantly available or edited for a website or service. A web developer using AjaxDB can use data in the tables at any web hosting company, opening up web development to endless front-end solutions.

Many small to medium sized businesses have not been able to take advantage of SaaS and cloud-based services, because they are still too costly. MyAjaxApp.com aims to bridge this technical and cost gap by providing a database system that is easy to use and affordable. Using AjaxDB provides a revolutionary and refreshing approach to database development.

MyAjaxApp.com is a new company based in Montreal Canada, with their premier product, AjaxDB, conceived and in development since 2005. MyAjaxApp.com was founded by Jerry Visser, who graduated from British Columbia Institute of Technology where he studied Electrical and Computer Engineering. Since 2004 Jerry has been creating enterprise data-driven solutions in Canada.

Zombies Eat Republicans: Digital Comic Kills the Apple App Store and Traditional Storytelling with HTML 5

Miami, Florida (PRWEB) February 28, 2012

When the team at Hype Comics started their work, they had in mind one goal: create a comic book with storytelling that maximizes the available technology. So many digital comic formats are created to replicate print, we felt the entire creative and production process had to be rethought from the ground up, says Founder and Creative Director Scott Ownbey. The traditional 3-6 panel per page format was created for a print medium, people currently read content on the ipad or online in a horizontal or vertical scrolling fashion with much more emphasis on the larger images and putting the reader in control of the action. We couldnt take a traditional comic and try it in our platform because the characters had to be created in their own planes and spaces, he said.

Zombies Eat Republicans was developed by Scott Ownbey to maximize the hype surrounding the zombies and the presidential election basing the story around both fictional and real characters. The central character Mike Scott is a fictional republican press secretary for Mitt Romney whose quest to win the race for the presidency turns into a battle to save humanity.

In creating the website the Hype comics team wanted to be able to create movement in sensations in a format that would translate for the web, Ipad and Android devices, a true cross platform product.

Using HTML 5 allows us to publish the project for the web today and in 2 weeks we will launch a web app version of the site, so a reader can download and experience smooth playback on mobile devices such the iPad, without going through the Apple Store, remarks Antolin Partidas Chief Information Officer and Lead programmer at Hype comics.

We wanted to create a seamless and immersing experience for the desktop user, but we also wanted to be able to recreate the whole experience on mobile platforms without major modifications to the source code (specially for the complex 2D panels animations); so by using a rich set of JavaScript libraries specially designed to enhance HTML5 canvas and audio elements, we were able to achieve this goal and surpass our own expectations, explains Partidas , who also added that the new disposition to the public of hardware-accelerated HTML5 elements available on the majority of the browsers, played a key point to make this project a reality.

Partidas added, We also paid important attention to the social integration, so we added features such as chat room, comic comments section and social networks panel sharing options. All this features will be equally available on web app version, to ensure the user totally cross platform functional experience.

Ironically Hype comics founder Scott Ownbey outlined a major goal in the beginning was not going through the Apple Store. We found from experience from a title we developed around Osama bin Laden, Seal Team X, the Apple Store is way to strict on content as they censor content turning down apps while approving others with the same content. We have republicans getting killed mixed with nudity were not going to waste development time creating an app we know will never see the light of day in the Apple Store. We didnt want to have our hands tied creatively or technically.

If people want animation theyll watch a movie, if they want to read its an entirely different aesthetic that we think we have addressed in Zombies Eat Republicans, said Ownbey.
