Engaging in the social media space

By pedropalhotoqg

Welcome to Quidgest’s Blog.

Quidgest is an information systems provider characterized by fast prototyping and evolutionary custom built solutions adapted to client’s needs. Instead of regularly providing pre-built systems, which are costly to adapt, we focus on having the ability to quickly build functional systems from the ground up. This is achieved through the use of our automatic code generation platform, Genio.

On the technical and business sides, we’ll gradually be putting out more content on the blog. In the mean time, you can check out our website at Quidgest.com.

For the purpose of the blog’s first post, I’ll let you in on how we will initially explore the social media space. Our first step has been to create this blog for Quidgest employees to be able to share in a corporate context, their progress, discoveries and opinions with like-minded individuals around the globe.

My role in this endeavor will be to help the organization throughout this first stage, getting to know how to move in the space. In my spare time I’ve been following the new/social media space enthusiastically through podcasts and blogs for the past two years which will help jump start this initiative.

Applying corporate blogging to our expanding small business will definitely require us to manage it through the gray, as C.C. Chapman would put it. Being a relatively unfamiliar medium in which people in the organization will start to explore in a corporate context, we’ll just have to figure it out as we go along. For instance, I’ve currently disabled comments, but kept trackbacks, for reasons put forth by a recent conversation on the topic at Twist Image’s Six Pixels of Separation.

Feel free to join the conversation by trackbacks or just write us an email to Quidgest Email, No spam.

Take care and enjoy,

– Pedro Palhoto, Marketing and Business Developer
