    • 2 years since the opening of the site. Our date of birth is January 16, 2006. Can this be considered a “startup” - I don’t know. In two years, much has been done, both in terms of the functionality of the site and its promotion. We organized parties for 1C programmers, held the first bowling tournament “Do not drive balls to roll,” rolled on a yacht in the Gulf of Finland. In principle, there is something to remember.
    • 1 programmer. The programmer’s functionality has been working all this time by one programmer, we keep his name a secret, since he has the main work. The entire portal engine was written by him “from scratch”. There were several attempts to switch to a typical CMS, but each time they stopped. I still don’t know if this is correct or not.

    Your humble servant is support aka Tsydenov Dorzhi, I combine the functions of a director and a layout designer :).
