This week Whaddado has integrated a new SMS gateway to allow two way messaging. This will be the backbone to the much awaited SMS idea pool. Its key functionality will allow uses to SMS there #whaddado #idea to Whaddado to be saved in their inbox. Never forget an idea again. Know more, Do more… Whaddado.
Team Whaddado has expanded and is currently being developed in 3 countries. The UK is still handling the core development however there are developers in both Czech Republic and Romania. Currently we are seeking more developers that specialize in advance PHP OOP and Codeigniter development. Along with backend development we will begin to expand the front end development team to complete new designs coming out of the London office.
It has been confirmed that Whaddado will continue to use the PHP framework Codeigniter for its Beta build. This was succesfully used for the whaddado Alpha site and has been an excellent RAD tool. We will be planning on pushing the framework to its limits and are confident it will allow the flexibility and the lightweight benifits it provides over other frameworks such as PHP Cake and Symfony.
Additionally we will be integrating the Zend Library files where possible and extending these to complete our 3rd party API integrations.
Currently we are looking for experts in Codeigniter php that can work within virtual teams to help deliver the Beta for Q1 2010.
