There are so many stories
But my favorite is the first project that got me started.
A childhood friend reached out to give word that we lost another friend from school days. It really enlivened us to stay close, but through letter writing, like we did when we were younger. So we went back to writing letters, & she collected little sayings that she found humorous in our correspondence. She really started expressing the desire to have a place to write together online, like a joint journal or even a book. It was a big leap of faith, but her encouragement was so inspiring to me.
I build her a blogger blog, because she could not do it herself, so she would have an outlet to be creative online, as she is very artistic at home. Long story long, we did build the blog from something she had written as a DearHeart note, we called it "TheTenderTwo"
We are still building it 4 years later, at a grandma kind of pace, but it continues to grow. I've had to migrate it recently, so it's still always a #learninginpublic project. It also was the starting point for all my other projects, all the other domains, blogs, journals, learning, everything I'm building online started from those letters.
It's my most treasured project of all.
We've developed a tool that allows users to explore, compare, and rank employers based on the workplace cultures they've created. Our product is called "Culturama โ, so the word "cultur(e)" with the suffix "rama" (as in "panorama") to evoke the idea of a panoramic view or display of diverse workplace cultures. During our brainstorming sessions, one of us came up with this name, and we all loved it as it effectively conveys the purpose of our tool.
Dezbor.com - its simply a mistyped and short version of dashboard
How did I come up with that? just playing around in godaddy to find domain and experimenting with word "dashboard"
The founder of our company used to work in Entertainment and he would be in meetings where people would argue about who would make the best celebrity ambassador that fit the brand's image. He didn't think it was right for a couple of people in a meeting room to decide who was the "cutest", "most talented" etc.
We started out as a big data platform for K-Pop fans. (Celebs is a short slang for celebrity in Korean) A few years later, he built an AI that analyzes the semantics of enormous user review data (including noisy data like Twitter) and generates real-time rankings :) Because the founding motivation is important, we never changed our name although we developed an Ai and branched out to different industries
We actually launched ๐ today! Check out Maimovie and show support ๐
