Under: WhereverTv, Zigron Inc

Absentee, absentee and absentee… from Zigron’s grand trip or any outdoor activity, even completely out from blogging, it was WhereverTV team habitual of absence. This was the limit and the notice was taken by blog administrator and Haris so here is the inside story of Dream theater.

What kept us away for so many things, is the question that  every mind might have noticed on every event.  Obviously, everybody knew that we’re not there as we’ve been working but so what!!! Others were also working,  and might be working more hard, but still they spared time to do the fun part as well, that we couldn’t. Deadlines, late sittings and immediate requirements is a common thing for IT, but innovations have always been out of the way and so was the case with WhereverTV. What was behind the scene that made us so busy, goes here:

WhereverTV website is a complete portal with all the features implemented so far, standardized and implemented. From secure Paypal & credit card shopping to User Role management in Salesforce, so many integrations like YouTube, TimeZone, java mail all are working perfectly. And above all, the system is logging the events comprehensively, i.e. any activity(I really mean any activity any user performs), scheduling efficiently the events at background and exporting capabilities like to excel and pdf. The presence of webservices definitely shows the strength enough to expose the system to be accessed by wherevertv devices.

Now coming to WhereverTV device, believe me its like Pandora box and it was dared by Mark Cavicchia and Kashif Mueen that they did not only opened this box but also decided to fix, enhance and mould it to their own requirements. From UI development to protocols implementation, it was like waking a sleeping giant. Codecs implementation and then webservices integration are the tasks which seem small but ask WET embedded team how much effort they have put it. (You want to know what this device looks like, click here )

The purpose of exposing these features is not to impress you people by any means, instead to let people know about the reason for WhereverTV team to be absent from trips, outdoors and even from blogging. Go to this link, and imagine that from February to August, we were busy in making this dream happen. And when the release was about to go live, for more than two month, our development rooms were always occupied by developers. So on behalf of WET Team, Please excuse us for all the absentees, unavailibilities and non-participating.

WhereverTV has moved from Beta to Gamma but the game is still on……… Yet so many features, enhancements and upgradings are in the way. Wait and see , how far we can take this ride for you…… But one thing is for sure that we’ll be with you on Zigron blog from now onwards.

Till next blog, adios
