This week on SDNtv, Kristopher Tate, founder of Zooomr, talks about the genesis and development of his one-year-old company. Zooomr is a unified, multi-language, photo-sharing site that uses "Geo-Tags" to help its worldwide community share, search, and sort the treasure trove of images.
Zooomr received Best Startup honors at last November’s Startup Camp, a Sun-sponsored event for emerging companies.
So how do you build the “Best Startup"? Watch this week's video and see what Kristopher has to say about getting started. As a programmer and entrepreneur, Tate also offers advice to beginning developers. Find out how Startup Camp helped him hone his message, especially during five-minute rounds of Speed Geeking, intense round-robin "pitch" sessions.
Also this week, Greg Posten, the Geek Gadget Guru, talks with Sun Labs Senior Staff Engineer Randy Smith about Sun SPOT small-device technology. Because it’s built on Java code, Sun SPOT technology puts the principle of "Write Once, Run Anywhere" in action.
Tune in next week to learn more about EchoSign, another hot Silicon Valley startup.
