2009 is wrapping up but it comes with some very exciting news. I’m very pleased to announce that Lively Labs is now open for business.

The core team consists of myself, Ed Adkins, and Chelsea Otakan and we will be providing Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) development and consulting using Salesforce.com, the Force.com platform, WordPress and the iPhone.

You can read more at Lively Labs: The Adventure Begins.

Our first product, Basejump, which I’ve talked a little bit about here will be available this month on Salesforce.com’s AppExchange and the Basecamp+Salesforce developer toolkit will be released to the developer community to allow for others to create their own integrations between the two applications.
