Interview with Mark Phillips from Vertabase Released

An interview with me from CFUnited 2009 was released today from CF Conversations.

It spans a wide array of topics including:

  • Making project management work in an organization
  • Open Source software
  • Managing a software business
  • Railo, OpenBD and Adobe ColdFusion

It starts out with a brief intro from Brian Meloche on things that he’s been working on then soon after moves into the interview.

New Vertabase Timer and Helping Adobe Launch New Service

We are excited to announce the latest version of the Vertabase Timer. This coincides with the launch of a new try-before-you-buy service from Adobe. We were honored to be part of only a handful of applications chosen to help launch this service.

The new Vertabase Timer (version 3.0) has a ton of new features like:

  • A sleeker new look
  • New charting and graphing functionality
  • New personalization options including user names, skins and more
  • Billing rates for profitability analysis
  • Adding notes and contact information per task
  • Reminders when you are working on tasks

As with the previous versions, it runs on Adobe AIR and is written Flex. It works on Windows and MAC as a desktop timer. It is a fast and fun way to track time on projects, clients or tasks.

The new Vertabase Timer is available for Trial Download or Purchase. There is a special introductory price of $5.

I have a few coupon codes from Adobe to offer the application for free. Contact me directly on the contact form if you’d like one of codes.
