Working On Our Twitter App

Ok, it has been a while since we posted anything here. In the last few months, things have not been going as smoothly as we would have liked at the office. In an effort to make saving and trim down operations, a number of our staff have gone... well, that's just the beginning according to the people at the top.

So, because of that, a number of the projects we had going had to be put on hold (including our planned fortnightly books and movie ticket give-aways). I will blog about the give aways in another post.

However, because of the said cutbacks at the office, one of our main developers has now moved on to a different company, leaving us with no one really good enough on our team to understand most of his code to carry on with those half completed project.

In our attempt to get things working again, we have now expanded our yearly interns recruitment programme and have 4 interns working with us this year - that's 2 more than we are used to. Luckily for us, one of the guys is very talented and was kind enough to look at the code in hopes of getting the application finished.

So, fingers crossed, we should have our very own branded Twitter App running in a few days time. There will be different versions for iPad, Android and web-based. So, watch this space.

We would like to say a big thank you to you all for being there and we hope to start Tweeting again soon. So look out for tweets sent via 'Greenwich Live' in your timeline.
