A few days ago our latest iPhone application for VOW Financial called “My Mortgage Kit” which you can get here .

Starting the year with a Bang

2010 was a great year for Sentia. With the release of the new Kazaa site along with a huge list of other projects including iPad apps for Telstra and Football Federation Australia our team also grew in size.

This year is looking like things will only be getting better. We have already started a number of new iPhone / iPad apps for clients which should be hitting the store in the coming weeks but also have a few pretty cool projects coming up, ill keep you posted.

Sentia is now a heroku and EngineYard partner which has been a great experience.

So here’s to a great 2011

Here are some photos of the new space when we started moving. Ill post some more once we have finished the move and made it feel like home

The problems with classic styles of Project Management

Michael Cindric — Thu, 11 Feb 2010 23:01:03 +0000

The constant battle l have faced in this game is dealing with old styles of project management still being used today. Some clients and businesses just don’t understand that its not in their best interest to work like this.

I came across a very smart story explaining why this is not the way to go and l think it explains it best.
