We
have over 20 years experience in software
development, working for industries in the retail,
medical, and real estate fields. In the spring of
2004, torrential rains hit the Dallas/Fort Worth
area in which we reside, resulting in flash floods
that this area has not seen in many, many years.
Many homes were damaged or destroyed by the
floods, and we were asked by the
Lancaster Outreach
Center, a local community
service organization, to design a database
application that they could use to track the needs
of flood victims and keep information on
volunteers. That first database was a Microsoft
Access-based database and proved helpful in
keeping a record of both the needs of the
community and help that was available. Later that
year, we were again asked by the Lancaster
Outreach Center to
create another database application that could be
used to track their ongoing client base. OutReach
was the result of that effort. Ten Mile
Software was created in order to share that
application, along with a couple of others that
we had developed along the way, with the general
public. We enjoy creating software that fills a
need, both for ourselves and others.

In addition to software
development, we have diverse experience in other
technology fields, including PC & application
support, network management, graphic design,
technical writing, and most recently, social
media management. In 2010, at the request
of our local Chamber of Commerce, we began
offering classes in Social Networking for Small
Business Owners, including hands-on workshops in
the use of Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Google
Buzz, blogging, and location-based services such
as foursquare. Click
here to learn more about these classes,
which are scheduled periodically according to
demand.
We believe
in giving back to the community, so we are
active in a variety of local charities and
non-profit organizations. We volunteer our
time for many projects and provide financial
support as well. We are grateful that our
efforts have been acknowledged on several
occasions, as evidenced by the awards listed
below.
