The State of Streamified - 1.0.0 and Beyond
Streamified began as a one-person operation with a vision for what could be. However, it quickly became clear that no one person can be artist, designer, coder and more all wrapped into one. Any good app must, by the very scope of the idea, be the result of more than one person. As we grew, the app grew with us.
Part of my role as the founder of Streamified is to manage the way that this project...

A Tale of Two Devices
Even as we continue to work with Apple to get the iOS version of Streamified in the App Store, we are asking Android users to be a little more patient.

Enter Streamified, Stage Right
Here in San Francisco, mecca of the tech industry, it is prudent to be able to package your idea into a single buzzword-laden sentence. “Streamified is a mobile social network aggregation app coming out of stealth and onto the iOS platform first,” I hear myself saying. It sounds so neat and tidy, yet it hardly captures the story behind the app.
Why does the world need more social network stuff?...
