September 2010Present (1 year 5 months)

Zipongo is a social mobile (www.zipongo.com/getapp/iphone) and (soon) web app , that lets users track and share food, exercise, sleep, mood, weight and outcomes they are interested in. Users can integrate devices like the Zeo sleep tracker, Withings wifi body scale and, soon, Garmin exercise trackers. This data informs our two most popular features: LifePower stats, which turns reaching daily nutrient and activity goals into a game, and the Guide, which provides specific meal, workout and sleep recommendations. In the next couple of months, we will begin delivering Deals for pre-purchase on healthy groceries (serving as promotion for our natural foods manufacturer partners), which users will have the option to buy online (via our Amazon integration), in local stores or at Farmers Markets.

The Alpinet Project

October 1999Present (12 years 4 months)

Since 1999 I am part of The Alpinet project, a non profit initiative ment to create a Romanian Mountaneering Web virtual community. So far the project is available in Romanian only.

By having a high Internet traffic we managed to finance Alpinet sub-projects, even support and sponsor other projects.

"Invitatie in Carpati" free online magazine (www.iic.ro) and "Fotogeografica" photo contest (www.fotogeografica.ro) are just two examples of what a non-profit project can do.
