Hi I am Jose Vigil, a software developer and entrepreneur from Buenos Aires. I started as a LAN administrator and then moved to development.
From my working experience I am very familiar with some known technologies like VNC, TeamViewer and NX. Also servers like Proliant, AS400 with up to 120 PC in a medical healthcare facility where I implemented PEX and worked with Ghost as well. It was fun, but I moved on.
I started programming after dominating a scripting language for Windows environments called Kickstart in a community I really enjoyed making friends. Then I started coding in Acess and the list continued, havent sopped ever since. Specially cause allows me to be an entrepreneur and move ahead with my ideas. I love to do this.
From an entrepreneur standpoint since 2007 I started playing with technology and came up with ideas for using agnostic screen and interfaces over the different devices (here is my post) . First with FreeNX (partner) and team we build a mouse pointer for Android called PadKite, we forked WebKit which was awesome but we came across OEMs and we crashed. It was a lot of fun to stay up for one day at Hackers News.
After that I focused on gestures and created a mobile API called GestureKit, it was a great experience presenting it at Berkeley University. Met plenty of amazing people at the Valley and continued seeing them. The project was cool but proven that people would not remember gestures in a daily basis usage, it was acceptable to see that no project doing it so took over.
I still think that the time was not proper to advance with such innovation therefore I continue thinking its possible to create a new type of interactive thin client environment with full customization.
I am actually working in my startup, an educational social network for kids AI driven. My goal at this great site and community is to find friend with whom I can share a vision with and play with the technology to create awesome new stuff that can solve problems and ultimately demonstrate a business model. I am now learning AI that keeps me motivated.
Its great to see that this technology is renewed and I am ready to be part of a change with new ideas.
Thanks lot
Jose Vigil
