Decades Whizzing Past

Travel, events, musings, politics, tastes, beliefs and whatnot. In short, the stuff that is supposed to be on Google+ (Google+?), or Orkut(?), or Hello(?), on Facebook, Instagram, VK and what have you. Some of it is (or was) in those places. The post are preserved on this website to keep it all in one place, away from digital cataclysms.

Family Photo Albums

In the early 2000's we started a photo blog website. Originally, we would write static HTML pages with Dreamweaver. In 2005 Dmitri developed a proper CMS written in PHP. It supported multiple themes and we were able to change our visual language as our tastes changed. It had features like online WYSIWYG page editing, full internationalization, ratings, comments, security.

Good Behavior Tools

Dmitri and Liza developed two Android apps for kids with the Autism Spectrum Disorder and similar conditions.

Through research and our own experience we found that positive reinforcement using tools like a token reward system and timer-based scheduled activities work best for helping such kids to learn good behaviors. The Easy Kid Tokens app is a lot of fun due to Liza's awesome animations. It has developed a loyal following over the years.
