Collections
We are currently working on a new product Collections. Collections is a Movie/Book/Anything database where you can make your own collections. All data is saved into a central database on the internet. This means that you can connect to you own Collections account anywhere even on the Windows Phone. A Windows Phone application which supports Collections protocol is also in development. We haven't got any release date for Collections at the moment, as Collections are still in alpha design state. As soon as we know the release date, we will write it here.

Collections supports guest login. This means that you can make a guest login for your family or friends, and allow them to view and even edit your collections. You can adjust per login which collections will be visible, and which can be edited by who.

Who we are

GD Software is just a name! Behind it, is a small group of developers. We all work full time elsewhere. We use this space to publish our spare time projects, projects we keep alive to improve our skills beyond our daily work. In the software business it's important keep up with all the new technologies and trends. GD Software has no limits, no rules and nobody to dictate what we have to do. This kind of space is important to any developer who wan't to be in front in more than just the technologies involved in the daily business.

Technologies

We primary write our code in Microsoft.NET (C# or C++). But also HTML, HTML5, Silverlight 4+, SQL, Java, JavaScript, CSS and a lot more. Our primary target is Microsoft and the Windows platform. But we are not religious about it. Android and iOS/Mac is indeed interesting too, but even thow GD Software haven't got any specific limits regarding technologies and platforms, we still have to be realistic. It is also important stay in focus. And the Windows platform, and .NET Framework is far enough for now. That doesn't mean that we havent played a bit around with Android and other platforms, we surely have.

We try to keep up with all the new technologies

Lately we have created applications for both the Windows Phone & Windows 8.
Currently we are improving our skills in indows Phone 7.0 7.5 7.8 and 8.0 and Windows 8 Desktop & Windows Store Apps.
We find both Windows 8 (WinRT/Metro) and Windows Phone very interesting, primary because of the .NET platform, we feel kind of home because it relates to our daily work. The priority of what we focus on is of cause also painted of which of our skills we need to develop. And as a Microsoft platform developer, thats a natural place to stick around.

We can help you

We love to help. We find applications that someone can actually use, a lot more fun to develop rather than developing "sample" products. If you have any good idears (realistic ones please), please let us know. We are also willing to help you (or your company).You may contact us at support@gdsoftware.dk. Of cause we won't do commercial development for free, depending or your project, we might help you for free. Just contact us, we won't bite, and lets have a chat about what you need, and together we can find a good solution.

DeTox

DeTox is a small application for the Windows Phone designed to help keeping track of "events". The idea DeTox is developed from, was
for me to quit smoking. You setup a pattern of intervals. Each pattern can be programmed for a specific duration, in which the event have
a specific interval. E.g. you can create one pattern of 4 days, and the set those 4 days interval to 1 hour. Then add 4 days more with the
interval 1.5 hour and so on. DeTox then automatically calculates when it's okay to "DeTox" (smoke etc.). That way, you can use your phone
to help keeping tack of, when it's all right to take a smoke. The idea is then to make the intervals bigger and bigger, to make it easier to
finally stop, when the DeTox has completed. DeTox supports live tile on the Winows Phone start page which will automatically update and
tell you when the time is up. You can always read the last and next "DeTox" from the tile. The app have a build in statistics function to let you
see some statistics about the intervals. You may (of cause) choose to DeTox even if isn't time yet. DeToX will then register the time and calculate
what your average interval is.
