AGI Applications & NPD Team Blog

The blog is the place where the AGI Applications & NPD Team lives. Here, you can see what’s new with the team, engage in discussion with our people and other technology aficionados, and suggest things you’d like to see AG Interactive get into. Our first project was the Kiwee Beta postCard Maker... but we have evolved since then to support various innovations (including websites, social network apps, mobile apps, desktop software) for AG Interactive.

Ogygia

Welcome to the kiwee blog. We are working hard to get our first products launched and will be out in the open (to our best friends and family) tomorrow.

With kiwee we are aiming to do something really big and (we think) really interesting. As we look at the ecosystem of content for social media platforms, we see a complicated mess of poor content, incomplete experiences and frustrating restrictions. We want to make some sense of all of this.

The folks who make up the kiwee team will be checking in here to talk about what we are doing, what we have planned, stuff we like and anything else that comes to mind. Please check back here often – we’ll try to keep it interesting.

The purpose of this blog is to begin a conversation about ideas, products, design or anything that influences what we do. It is meant to help us create a better experience – and as such, only works if we hear from you.

We’ll keep you posted.

All About Kiwee

All About Kiwee
Kiwee’s all about giving you ways to flirt, laugh, and communicate on your friends’ pages – and your own. Put tweak-able digital animations, images & ideas (we call them postCards) on your friends’ pages automatically – forget about messing with ugly HTML code. And keep your eyes peeled, because we’re just getting warmed up...

1. Find It
Sift through our site and pick a postCard to put in your friends’ comments sections.
2. Design It
Make it your own: your words, your colors, your twisted inside jokes...
3. Post It
In just a few clicks, Kiwee quickly and automatically finds your friends and posts your stuff in their comments section. Or you can put it there yourself, if for some reason you actually like to handle HTML code.

What’s a postCard?
A postCard is what we here at Kiwee call one of those "thingies" people leave for each other in their comment sections on friend networks like MySpace, and blogs, too... you know, the sparkly "Thanks For The Add" messages, strange pics, and funny gags. Basically, any image or animation you leave in someone’s comments section, whether it's a shoutout to a person that makes your pulse quicken, or a "Thanks For The Add" poster.
