Ok, here is the first post to let the cat out of the bag. We're getting close to releasing a really exciting "app". We've been working for the better part of the year on a virtual memory quilt. Once you've signed up for a quilt, you can create quilt patches (with our patch painter). Behind each patch are the "memories" - rich content, including photos, video, audio, stories, etc. Perfect for creating lasting memories of lives, events, pets, yourself.... You can also create a "community quilt" to allow multiple people to all contribute. Let us know if you would be interested in beta testing this. We are releasing it to selected testers. You get a free quilt and we get feedback. Stay tuned!!!!

Just a heads up: A spammer cracked a client's email password and starting spamming through our email server yesterday. We caught it quickly and managed to stay off of all the blacklists except Microsoft. We are in the process of trying to resolve this now. In the meantime, you may experience difficulty delivering to .com and .com email addresses.

Ack! Our mail service got hung up for a couple of hours this morning. A virus on a client PC started spamming through us and our mail server got blacklisted. We quickly suspended the client and got off the black list. However, there may be some disruption in service for a couple of more hours as it takes time for individual servers out there to recognize we are no longer blacklisted. Sorry for the inconvenience!

Please contact Zach at [email protected] if you are having site issues. Kit will be checking email and phone messages as frequently as possible.

Cykic Memory: The January, 1975, Popular Electronics magazine ran an article about building a computer for $499. The PC revolution is often attributed to this machine. It was the MITS Altair 8800. Kit and brother Ned got a college grant to purchase and build one. It had 256 BYTES of memory and only on/off switches to program it. No disks, no keyboard, no monitor... This is what we started with. Our software today still has its roots in those years of making this little "toy" smart. Within about 4 years of building it, we were running a Medical Accounts Receivable system on it for dentists and doctors. Every byte of code was ours, built up from those original 1's and 0's.

Interesting side note - Bill Gates worked for the company that built the Altair about the same time we started developing software for it. Hmmmm.... look what happened... I'm afraid he had the marketing savvy and financial resources, whereas we pretty much stuck to just making good software.

All right! We are on our way to being a FB presence! Thank you all for your comments and "likes". In the coming days, we would like to introduce our team and give you a bit of history regarding the company. We have been around a long long time, sort of hiding in the background. And it is time to step out!

Welcome to Cykic's new page! We are so used to developing our own technology, that it has taken us awhile to embrace others. But we're jumping on board because it is a great way to reach our clients and others who are interested in a hosting solution offered by a 99% company, great technology, and one-on-one support with the developers. We were one of the first to run a PC-based hosting server in 1994 and we continue to offer elegant solutions to any kind of Internet need.

So stay tuned here for not only what's new from Cykic, but announcements of hosting issues, tips and tricks with Cykic's Web Builder, and much more. Thanks for joining us!
