Nearly 3 months after the development for the website began its finally ready to go live at 2.00 pm
A Website one may think is so trivial, there are hundrends of tools which can create slick websites within a couple of minutes and yet its taken us such a long time
Well there is another story with the website. Our first attempt at creating a website began in december of 2006. The idea was simple, quickly learn some powerful language of the intenet like perl, java etc and to toil day and night to develop unique designs and features and create a great site. We are indeed a set of very hard working people but then there is something called as doing smart. After trying to create some "Hello World" programmes on perl we realized the website would take a generation to develop. We then started looking at alternatives on the net and Eureka!! we found Joomla. Joomla is a powerful way to create a heavy content website or what is called a Content Management System.
Finding Joomla was like finding wings to fly over delhi traffic. We quickly began evaluating the various features of Joomla and how we could develop a website with it. However we realized soon that developing on Joomla a system that requires a very strong database support would not be easy. The wings were too small they just couldnt lift us off.
In May of 2007 the MBA grad who had started earning from a high profile job now decided that in order to pursue his dream seriously he would require professional support. Somebody who could worry about design, security and host of other issues. This required money and quite a bit of it. At that point a freind came to help, he decided to invest too, although he dint believe completely in the idea but he still decided
The Wings were back in business!!
Its one minute before 2 pm
See you in the virtual world
