As you can probably tell, things have been busy lately for me. Most of my efforts have been focused on ThemBid.com marketing and development. With that said, there has been one significant milestone towards the Life 2.0 project. I have finally made the switch to Ubuntu from Vista, thus laying the OS foundation.
One of my goals is to build the heart of the Life 2.0 System using the Symfony framework. I now have a bare bones Symfony framework up and running locally and on on Media Temple. Here are the steps I took:
The first real world application involving collaboration using the Life 2.0 framework is with one of the companies I co-founded: ATLInnovations.com, which is the creator of ThemBid.com. Allot is going on with both these companies, which has a small tight knit team of eight. Generally the span of control is four, so a Life 2.0 system is critical to keep sane when trying to manage the rapid pace of these companies.
This is the new home of the blog post Life 2.0: An Entrepreneurial Framework.
Today, I have completed the starting framework using Google Apps. It will serve as a starting point in the creation of the final system. I am using MindMeister.com to organize the foundation of the project via Mind Map. Please comment here if you would like access to that Mind Map.
