I am an internet based holiday properties lettings agent whose centre of operations is Kefalonia, a small Greek island in the Ionian sea. Whilst we (myself and my better half) live in the UK much of the time we do keep our own property in Kefalonia and during the summer season spend some time there. I am being dragged (with a small amount of complaint)into the 21st century and now need to develop apps for our existing clients and web sites. I just hope being able to build our web sites will help a bit when building apps. Because when I learned web site building all those years ago (12 now!) I trashed two computers in frustration. Well lets just say they gave up trying to keep up. The first one had a massive hard drive of 8 whole GBytes and windows 98SE installed taking up much of that space! The one I have now I have had for 2 years and I have grown very fond of it! Title Comments Just a quick note to introduce myself to the community.

I reckon your previous experience will indeed come in handy. Put me down for a week in Kefalonia next summer. Don't hesitate to shout if you need anything at all. Once again, welcome to BT!

I'm based in Oxford and I try to set up a Buzztouch meeting every month so fellow British members can all congregate together.

Before you dive in, make sure you read through this doc to ensure you have everything needed to get rolling: http://www.buzztouch.com/files/howtos/Things_You_Need_Before_You_Start_Developing_Apps_v1.1.pdf We're all here to help! I think you'll find creating apps in buzztouch to be pretty simple. And you'll find no better community than this one to support you along the way! Mark Comments Hi Paul, Welcome to buzztouch!
