      FileMaker Origin Stories

      jbrown posted a topic in Community Articles, Tips, & Techniques,

      Everyone here has an interesting FileMaker Origin Story. Sometimes we stumble into the platform, and sometimes we make a deliberate choice.

      We all know the ending of our stories, but what happened at the beginning?

      We at Geist Interactive are interested in FileMaker developers' origin stories. We're collecting stories into a series of episodes on The Context Podcacst.

      Here's the trailer: https://share.transistor.fm/s/d8ad250b

      Feel free to share your story too. We'd love to hear your story. Reach out at info@geistinteractive.com or send me a message. We'll set up a time to share your story. Please consider it: no matter your experience level, we want to hear them. 

      Thanks

      Jeremy

      HTTP Request: I don’t know how, but it works

      Todd Geist posted a blog entry in Geist Interactive,

      In the past year and a half here at Geist Interactive, I’ve been tasked with some development work that involves connecting to various APIs. I’ve written modules for clients that get definitions, other forms, synonyms and antonyms, hypernyms and hyponyms of a term from the client’s internal dictionary and such public dictionaries such as Oxford […]

      Forum Etiquette

      John Mark Osborne posted a blog entry in The Philosophy of FileMaker,

      Forums are a great way to get technical advice for FileMaker but for some reason, many people don't think they have to be nice in the electronic world. I was raised to say "please" and "thank you" and that has translated over to the internet for me. But, other folks think the anonymity of cyberspace is an excuse to be a jerk. Some posters are outright offensive and others will just leave snide responses like, "that wasn't much help". News flash! People on the internet are real and you should be as nice to them as you would in real life! In fact, I would say you should be nicer online so as not to be misinterpreted.
