Dipity Adds Application Engineer, Staff Grows 14.3%
Dipity has not even celebrated it’s 2nd birthday, but we sure are growing up fast. In the last few months, we have seen record growth in accounts, page views and unique visitors on an almost daily basis. This only strengthens our belief that digital timelines that can filter and broadcast information containing timestamps, geolocation and realtime updates are an increasingly applicable and vital tool.
As a consequence of our rapid growth, users may experience problems with slower load times or event edits not showing up as fast as they should. We are working hard to add servers and keep Dipity up to speed, and in the meantime, developing an amazing, innovative new widget (more on that soon) that will absolutely blow your socks off. Another exciting development at Dipity is the growth of our team.
Until recently, Ben has been our only engineer, left to fend for himself in a vast jungle of requests for bug fixes and new features from overzealous project managers and copywriters. However, help has arrived in the form of our new full-time engineer Derek Brooks.
Look at that Pudum
Derek, A.K.A. Broox, hails from Port Byron, IL and holds a degree in Computer Science from Cornell. He currently resides in Des Moines, Iowa with his wife Kari (sorry, ladies). He has done some very impressive work for Adium, SiteMan, Pioneer Hi-Bred Intl., and Red 5 Interactive. He has been interviewed by YM magazine, The BBC and various local radio stations and publications. Needless to say, his reputation in web work precedes him.
We are excited to bring Broox on board and he has proven to be a great asset from the very start. But don’t take it from me, read Derek’s “Dipity Doo Dah!” blog post and he can tell you all about his new job venture himself.
Welcome to the team Broox, we are excited to be working with you!
