Jabbakam API and Developers site launched

Rob Searles — Thu, 10 Mar 2011 14:04:16 +0000

We’re pleased to announce that Jabbakam, the IP camera security network platform we’re working on, has just launched its API and developer site.

The API will allow developers to build applications on top of the Jabbakam system, or integrate Jabbakam into their existing apps. This is very exciting for us here as this is just the start of our developer products at Jabbakam. We’re looking to foster a developer community around Jabbakam to extend and improve the service to all our users so whilst this is small beginnings, we’re really hoping to offer a great developers’ toolbox of goodies, centered around the Jabbakam platform.

So, if you are a developer, have a look at Jabbakam’s new Developers site, and play around with the API.

Triffids at ibrow Towers

Rob Searles — Wed, 26 Jan 2011 21:40:11 +0000

With lots going on with Jabbakam, Doolali and Live Unsigned, and with the short winter days keeping us wrapped up inside the office we decided to spruce up the place. So we ventured out and bought a load of plants. Now the insides of ibrow Towers resembles that more of a jungle then a busy development boutique.

Obviously this isn’t news in itself but it was good to see that in today’s sprint retrospective the plants were included in the list of positives!

In other news, Rob is off to Brighton beach tomorrow to meet up with some iPhone developers we’re hoping can help us with Doolali.

The site is a simple no frills worldwide gig directory that allows artists to quickly post shows thereby creating a list which users can skim through to find gigs to their liking. Users can share information easily on Twitter and Facebook, rate acts and venues out of 5 and leave their comments.

Version one of the site is now online and we are now eagerly awaiting bands to come and sign up and post their gigs so that we can take develop this little beauty further…

Jabbakam.com Launched

Rob Searles — Mon, 17 May 2010 12:59:46 +0000

For the past year ibrow have been hard at work on Jabbakam.com. Jabbakam is an open platform for IP cameras, allowing owners of these devices to easily manage their camera online and create camera networks and share their footage with others.

The system is ideal for those interested in setting up a community watch scheme or video diary or other interest group focused around camera footage.

ibrow developed and designed the website, mobile site and iphone application, also a developers’ site that gives access to the Jabbakam API with the intention that Jabbakam will be extended by others to work on a growing number of platforms with increased functionality and features.

New Office Intern – Brian

Rob Searles — Fri, 11 Sep 2009 11:14:30 +0000

We here at ibrow towers have a brand new intern. He’s a little bit excitable and can’t seem to sit still, but he is proving to be very popular in the office here that we share with ArtFacts.Net. However, he’s not as professional as we would have hoped – on his first day at work he had a poo in the middle of a meeting!

I’d like you to all welcome Brian.

In the pipeline

Rob Searles — Mon, 27 Jul 2009 10:21:31 +0000

LiveUnsigned.com – a worldwide gig directory for unsigned artists and those wanting to find them. Our focus with this site has been on making it as easy as possible to list and find out about shows by new and upcoming artists by area. Visitors will be able to quickly listen to a sample track of each band whose show is listed and read reviews by other users. The site’s purpose is to GET PEOPLE OUT to gigs, so we’ll be dishing up concise and current information which should always stay up to date via it’s wiki interface. No fluff, no frills, just a clear and clean gig promotion tool.

New website launched

Rob Searles — Sun, 12 Jul 2009 14:04:42 +0000

We have just relaunched the ibrow.com website.

The old website had been around for quite a bit, so we felt that it was time for a spring clean. The new site is now more focused to our areas of expertise, allowing us to showcase our best work. At the same time we have upgraded our blog, giving us more room to share our opinions on the state of the web industry, and it’s opportunities, as we see it.

We hope you like the new site, and don’t forget to sign up to our RSS feed.
