HipCal - it's about time

Description

HipCal is an online calendar, to-list, and address book developed by fraternity brothers, Garret Heaton, Pete Curley, Chris Rivers, Tawheed Kader, Glenn Dixon, as undergraduates at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI) in 2005. The award-winning lifestyle management tool and development team was acquired by Plaxo, Inc. in May 2006.

Garret is currently a junior at RPI pursuing a major in Information Technology. Upon finishing this semester Garret will begin work with Plaxo as a programmer for their calendar team. Garret began working with HipCal as an extracurricular activity while attending RPI. He developed the basic framework for the popular calendar and now spends time enhancing the user interface, using web technologies such as Ajax. In addition to his work with HipCal, Garret is also president of his fraternity, and works on HipCal in the "office" located in the frat house. If he had any free time, he'd be skiing. Garret is a native of New Hampshire.

Chris is a recent graduate of RPI with a degree in Computer Science and Management. Prior to joining Plaxo, Chris worked in Manhattan for Wireless Generation, a leading educational software company. When he's not programming, you can probably find him playing his favorite MMORPG. Chris will join the Plaxo team as a software engineer. Chris is from Fitchburg, Massachusetts.
