Having gone through the process of developing one of the earliest social software mashups (GROU.PS) in PHP six years ago, and LoveBucks, a node.js Javascript app that is the Facebook “Like” Button for online content monetization (both alone), I want to describe to you a little bit what has really changed in web application development in recent years and the beauty of minimum viable product. 1.

NationBuilder - the Community Organizing System. Stride, A CRM System Salespeople Will Hate (But Freelancers Will Love), Launches Into Beta. Stride, a new CRM system designed to meet the needs of freelancers and small business owners, is launching into private beta today.

Stride, A CRM System Salespeople Will Hate (But Freelancers Will Love), Launches Into Beta

The product, which was born out of an actual need for a more simplified CRM system, is focused on efficiency, not a complex feature set. It’s not for adding contracts, managing cases, or allocating tasks to a team of salespeople. Instead, Stride is about deal-tracking and high-level metrics only. “For salespeople, this app is going to make them cringe,” says Stride co-founder Andrew Dumont.

The idea for the app was sparked by Nathan Carnes and built by the team of Andrew Dumont, Adrian Pike, and Amiel Martin. “I didn’t need multiple salespeople or complicated reports,” he says, “and I didn’t have time to enter contacts and manage them.” Giving up on finding a solution, Carnes decided to build one instead. Andrew Dumont tells me that he felt similar to Carnes about the current state of the CRM market.

Cowbird Is A Community For Amazing Storytellers, And Another Reason To Love The Internet. Not yet familiar with digital storytelling platform Cowbird, despite recent glowing coverage from the likes of Wired and The Washington Post? Well, if you like reading, seeing or listening to a good story as much as I do, you will be mighty glad I’m introducing you to the site today. On a sidenote: I’m very happy that my last TechCrunch post is about something like Cowbird, because it’s one of those things that make me ever so grateful for the existence of the Internet. Simply put, Cowbird is a place where you can go to tell a story that you think is worth sharing with a wider community of lovers of good stories.

The idea is for people to tell short location-tagged stories based on their own experience using text, photos and sound or a mix thereof. The more personal and authentic your story, the more it will resonate with the still relatively small Cowbird community. I added some screenshots below to give you an idea of what it looks like.
