Your client’s projects as lab mice

There has been lack of updates for this blog. My last blog post was on April 17 , which actually a repost of Izzat’s earlier entry, so that doesnt really counts. We (myself particularly) have been very busy with our side-project-turned-main-project : woobik.com - a web 2.0 social video / streaming project, which aims at redefining how social networking works (uhuh)  but in itself is not a social network (i know.. i know). More on this later.

As a web company, experimenting new technologies and new kind of developments / projects is vital to the growth and health of your company (or yourself if you’re a freelancer). If you’re a webdesign/dev company, yes no doubt you’ll get better and perhaps will reach the  ub3r l33t status at something when you keep doing the same thing, but routine works wont help us grow that much. A company needs to get out of its comfort zone in order to grow. Those warm and fuzzy  feeling won’t get us anywhere. Sometimes we’re afraid to step out of the ‘know’ into the ‘unknown’  just because we’re afraid that we’re not well equipped for what’s coming. There’s a reward in every risk taken. If all babies are afraid to take those baby steps , none of us will be walking today.

Personally, i am more lean towards a radically different concept for each project. However, this approach might not be suitable for every clients.

Now, a somewhat related question : what if you get a chance to do a project with a huge room for experimentation but w/ a very small budget. Do you go for it or will just let it slip?
