Just this morning, the first of eSpace’s partnerships, Marginize, made notable mention in the esteemed technical blog. Read the article at length here. This was just the beginning of a marketing blitz, with more to come soon!

Just a couple days ago eSpace, in its first collaboration with Fictiv, opened the curtains to unveil our first iPad application. Being productivity buffs ourselves, and upon realizing that there is still a need for a cheap, simple, and yet effective productivity app, we went ahead with creating an index card based to-do list organizer called Task Cards.

Task Cards

One day we got this call from Ziad Sultan, a young and enthusiastic entrepreneur from Boston, MA, and he had this crazy Idea. His vision was to create a margin to websites… creating an augmented or meta web, where people can share their thoughts in real time on any website. eSpace created a team working very closely with Ziad, and over the months the startup, Marginize was created, enrolled in TechStars, and a mere three months later graduated being the only company succeeding in raising the money it needed even before the end of the event. The aspiring story about Dharmesh, a very successful entrepreneur and angel investor, sending his interest to invest in Marginize through marginize was the talk of the community in Boston for a while now. Around the same time as the TechStars event, which eSpace had the privilege to attend and catch on the fever, Marginize was featured in TechCrunch and a featured app for Google’s Buzz.

A problem we’ve been battling over for a while now is whether or not we should discontinue supporting Internet Explorer 6 in our new web applications. Not only does IE6 prove time and again to be buggy and infamously unable to adhere to standards, but it also takes about 20% more time during the development phase of any project for special handling. That time could be much better put to use in other things like code review, testing, and bug solving.
