About Gigdoggy

Because I am feeling lazy, and essentially because we kind of re-designed our about-page with pictures and little descriptions of ourselves, we decided to present to you this new about-page as today’s post. This is maybe not the most interesting post in our Gigdoggy blog, but at least it enlightens you on who’s responsible for all the doggy musically-related foolishness (and saves me the effort of writing a whole post :-)

A warm Mruff! to all and thanks for the support you’ve given us up until now.

Gigdoggy is a four doggy clan for now:

Greg Whiteside is a geek (no doubt about that) who is currently developing, scaling, hacking, designing, scripting and building the gigdoggy platform that is coming out on February 1st. He is also what could be considered the editor of this here blog. Greg is also a singer/songwriter in his spare time, and hopes to one day make millions with his music for the sole purpose of buying a yacht.

Robin Charmant is also a geek, but of a lesser statute then Greg. I am the author of this here blog, editor as well, and I also help patchwork, promote and design our yet-to-become Gigdoggy website. Formerly a sound engineer and composer, I too plan on becoming filthy rich off my music with hopes of buying not one but multiple yachts (or possibly a battle cruiser).

To conclude this post, and in the spirit of copy-pasting our about-page, here’s the word-cloud representing a collection of our most prominent tags. It was created using Jonathan Feinberg’s amazing Wordle service.
