Wednesday, November 2nd, 2011

40 hours to complete a full-fledged app, that’s the concept behind a Hackathon. We added – on a new platform and in a new app category – and the bar was raised even higher. Invited by Nokia, a three member strong team accepted the challenge. We went to London and came home, surprisingly, as the winners and with a (physically) big € 50,000 check.

Symbian "Editor's Pick" recognition, the coolest of cool apps.

On the Symbian blog, in the introduction to my blog post (from the DEMO trenches) Symbian start’s out with asking:

“So what does this kick-ass little app do? Well, it allows users to immediately access documents that are stored on remote servers, attach them and simply click send. It provides push notification and easy access to email and documents anytime, anywhere – saving users time and data costs. In short, it’s amazing!”

We’re very thankful for the kind introduction and to top it all, we were awarded the Symbian “Editor’s Pick” recognition, as the coolest of cool apps.
