Academic pursuits

Posted by matt, Sat May 03 05:03:00 UTC 2008

Throughout the last couple of months I’ve been busily working on finishing the my university degree. It has been a long time coming, though thoroughly enjoyed. So come the end of the year I will be changing from one stage in my life to another. I’ll graduate from Swinburne. And there was thunderous applause.

My pursuits will still remain academic due to the direction that Reformed Software is taking. That direction is one of service to the Academic community through the writing of software that aids in studies. The first way in which this service is being accomplished is with Scribere a note taking application for podcasts and vodcasts. Talking to an academic today at Swinburne, after asking what I was up to and the subsequent disbelief that I was still a student, he loved the idea of Scribere and was impressed about the development thus far. He also provided some much needed usability input at that stage.

How does this square with my faith? Reformed Software is still a Christian software development company, and by God’s grace it always shall be. The difference is that it isn’t obtusely so.

Further the tagline for Reformed Software will change, though what it embodies will still be present.

God bless, Matt.
