Entrepreneurial Software Developers' Mall
[This page is outdated; it's future is uncertain. Please
visit www.EntEng.com. This page is
provided for historical purposes only.]
This site is dedicated to showcasing the efforts of entrepreneurial software
developers. These software professionals run their own businesses (full-time or part-time
while maintaining "day jobs".)
These are not "hackers" or hobbyists. They are ultra-serious,
ultra-hard-core, ultra-hard-working, ultra-creative professionals who know how to take
poorly-defined problems and turn them into reality with innovative solutions. If you're
looking for a product or service and it's not in here, just contact any of the principals
and they can develop a custom solution for you.
