Congratulations to Smallthought
Congratulations to Smallthought software’s Andrew and Avi for winning Under the Radar’s Best in Show along with a slough of other awards at South by Southwest (SXSW Interactive) last week Under the Radar, a conference unto itself.
Smallthought are a local Vancouver start up making big waves with their DabbleDB product, which I was lucky enough to see demoed at MooseCamp a few weeks ago, which suitably wowed the NorthernVoice attendees.
Check out the Smallthought blog to stay up to date with DabbleDB news. These guys are doing some really interesting things and act as very good ambassadors for Vancouver’s nascent but burgeoning web community.
Update: My friend John Grantham points to this 7-minute screencast of DabbleDB from Under the Radar (.MOV file, Quicktime required). This is the presentation that won them Best in Show.
