In August 2008, our team here in Boston began working with a group of developers, VST, from Hanoi University of Technology in Vietnam. Our first project was a simple call and display function along with a minor template change. Since that project, we now work full time, around the clock with VST on complex projects dealing with our system architecture, crawling technology, semantic taxonomy and many other exciting components of Pinyadda. Like the Pinyadda Team, they are young and entrepreneurial and are passionate about their work and we'd like to introduce all of them.First up is Christian. As the chief executive of VST, Christian's focuses is on running the business side of VST. Next is Jimmy, who is one of three team leaders for VST who runs a small group of developers working on Pinyadda. Jimmy maintains similar late hours as we here at Pinyadda do. His availability during our morning hours has been extremely helpful when last-minute tasks need to be completed. Jimmy's command of Linux operations and efficiencies have made Pinyadda a faster site as well as a more agile company.
Kurt is another team leader for VST and takes his nick-name from Kurt Cobain (his favorite rockin' roller). Kurt's tireless work on developing Pinyadda's indexing system has been invaluable. Over the last 12 months, Kurt and I have learned much about open-source technologies while tackling challenging obstacles together. MySQL, PHP and Javascript are just a few of Kurt's specialities.
The final team leader for VST is Mars. Although Mars is relatively new to our project, he has quickly learned and become a great help in project management. Thomas, the PHP and CSS efficiency expert for VST, and Sarah, the customer service representative, are both terrific at what they do and always available when needed.
Last but not least is the developers whose terrific development is the driving force behind Pinyadda. They are HieuT, HungPT, HungTX, LamHV, TamPT, and VuTD. Without the work of each of these devs, Pinyadda would be nothing but an idea (but a great one at that!)
