Interview With Tech Ranch Austin

Last week, I was asked to be interviewed by Jonas Lamis from Tech Ranch Austin about BG Alert, and the impact that Tech Ranch has had on BG Alert and myself. For those who don’t know what Tech Ranch is, they are an incubator of sorts, helping entrepreneurs get the help they need, as well as provide office space, mentorship and classes to help launch the next big thing. Jonas has an interview with Kevin Koym from Tech Ranch explaining this more in detail.

Unfortunately, I haven’t done much video before, so I look a bit stiff in the interview, but it worked out. Tech Ranch has been a great help to me. It’s nice being around people who just want to help others. Also, make sure you check out the other video entries on Jonas’ site.

In the last week, I’ve been working constantly on getting BG Alert ready for the public. I have migrated from ASP.Net webforms to ASP.Net MVC, as well as integrated with a beta testing manager, called Prefinery. This is a very exciting time for BG Alert, and we are making a major push in marketing and advertising to get as many people registered to beta test as we can. Our plan is to start the beta test on September 14th. All of the testers will be using it for free during the beta test period, and will recieve 3 months free once the service finishes the beta test.

BG Alert would love to hear any comments or suggestions, as it is still in development. Our goal is to help as many families with children with type 1 diabetes as we can. I have a 12 year old with type 1 diabetes, and this service has helped our family a great deal, and I want others to be able to benefit from this.
