I have been contemplating this blog entry for a while now as these are two critical components to what makes Quiksu what we are. I write this fresh off of finishing a book called The Medici Effect which basically discusses the concept of the 'Intersectional' idea and its ramifications on revolutionary innovation. This was an extremely timely read for me because we are placing ourselves directly at the intersection of a few industries. The possibilities are endless and we are extremely excited to start showing some things off. Now to the final two core values.

In terms of the Web, nothing will have the staying power of a company like Corning if it is not sufficiently secure and ubiquitous. If a significant security breach happens in this day in age not only does the breached data travel at the speed of light but so does the news of it occurring. News, being highly peer-to-peer, has created an environment that requires that this circumstance be avoided at all cost. This is one of the primary reasons why when we narrowed our brand to three themes, security is one of them. Plus, coming from a guy who majored in Mathematics, security is cool. Though I never formally studied things like number theory and combinatorics I picked up books like that for fun. I have also been blessed to have been exposed to some of the world's best data architects and engineers. I'll introduce you to one soon, Quiksu's second member, Co-Founder and CIO.

Since we're on the subject of data and security it is a must to think about all of the places where we have access to Web data. When you really think about it, it is always and everywhere: ubiquitous. That is both a bit scary and exciting, the perfect place for a startup. Our aim is to provide access to our products and services anywhere you may have the desire to do so, whether on vacation at the International Space Station or at the public library.

Now that we've gotten the core values out of the way we'll start introducing the exact nature of our Intersectional idea and showing off a thing or two in the process. I can't tell you how exciting this is. Hope you enjoy the ride as much as we are.
