Thingamy Founder On Bloatware Versus Enterprise 2.0

While our Windows PC was loading our Word application this morning, a lengthy process, we had time to read Sigurd Rinde’s blog. He’s the entrepreneur behind Thingamy, an application development tool for business aplications. Based on recent blog posts, it looks like VCs are courting him, seeing Thingamy as an example of Enterprise 2.0, no doubt.

Call it what you will, we like his viewpoint on the computing giants of this world... Here’s an example:

... Microsoft is coming out with a software update to make the Zune compatible with Vista. Good for them. The patch is 22 Mb. Thingamy is 14 Mb. With Zune you can play some music, with thingamy you can run Microsoft. Are they paid by line-of-code in Seattle?

Read - software - big and small
