Enercient progress report

Well, last week was a stellar week for us and for Enercient. We met with our web development team early in the week, and the "junto" page seems like its going to be very cool. Thursday we attended our first meetup, a social rockstar event at RFD. Finally on Friday we locked in our relationship with the hardware provider for Enercient!

For those of you who don't know, Mel and I arrived at the idea to start Enercient after researching social platforms, online applications, etc. and tried to think about how these things would relate to the facilities management industry- one thing led to another, sending us down yet another slightly different path, and we arrived at the idea to create a fully integrated, web-enabled wireless building management system.

This has been a really cool experience for me, I've done other ventures and been involved in some pretty big things in the past, but nothing has been quite like this. Mel and I started out with the idea that if it got too wierd, or stressed us out too much, took too much time from the family, or just didn't seem like it would work- we would stop, and so far everything has been going according to our plan.

So, here we are now, and (I guess becasue of being a little older and wiser) things have progressed relatively smoothly. I have been thankful for the network of friends that I have, but we have just been able to plod along, follow our plan, and move Enercient along little by little. I am fully confident that when we "officially" launch in January, we'll be ready to go.

Check back here, and as things progress, I'll provide updates!
