			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>I am pleased to announce that we are opening our doors as a boutique web application/site development and hosting company.</strong></p>
<p>Dave, who heads up development, has over 2 decades of experience developing software.<br />
He is a thought leader in the areas of Object Oriented Techniques and Agile Software Development Practices.<br />
Nancy, who is in charge of hosting, has extensive experience with web application hosting and server management.<br />
We leverage various state of the art techniques and technologies including OS X, Debian Linux, Ruby, Rails, and AJAX, to name a few.</p>
<p>What&#8217;s this mean to you as a client?  Solid, high quality applications delivered as efficiently as possible.<br />
Because we can host your application as well as develop it, it&#8217;s easy for you to have changes and enhancements made.<br />
There&#8217;s only one company to deal with, and our development and hosting are tightly integrated, providing you with the quickest turnaround time possible.</p>
<p>Not only do we use the lastest, most productive technologies available, but we&#8217;ve been around long enough to<br />
have a deep understanding of the issues involved in developing and maintaining high quality, robust applications.</p>
<blockquote><p>Legend has it that Pablo Picasso was sketching in the park when a woman approached him and asked him to sketch her.</p>
<p>After studying her for a moment, he used a single pencil stroke to create her portrait.</p>
<p>When she asked the price, he replied  “Five thousand dollars.”</p>
<p>The woman was flabergasted: “How could you want so much money for this picture? It only took you a second to draw it!”</p>
<p>To which Picasso responded, “Madame, it took me my entire life.”</p></blockquote>
<p>Experience counts.  Who do you want developing your applications?</p>
