E.A.Company:
Who are we and what
have we been up to?

My name is Nigel Openshaw
and with my team of testers I have a
business that can look after my
customers' needs on a personal and
friendly basis.
As it stands this is going fairly
slowly as my main job is as a teacher
in South Korea. I am currently at a
place called Gyeongsan English Town. It
has a small, but varied selection of
setups and scenarios for the children
to believe they are in an
English-speaking country. For pictures
on my travels,
Nigel Openshaw's Photo Blog.
I
am a programmer first by hobby. I have
been making software for the best part of
12+ years. Before that, I did a course in
Video and Audio Engineering at Salford
University, Manchester, UK. As with some
courses, you could say it was a bit "Jack
of all trades master of none". I did
learn management and software design
which I would say helped the most. Since
then I've kept learning in different
areas such as web design and
marketing.
"Organizing is something that
takes hold of me with or without my
wanting. I am an organizing nut so much
so that even my software organizes me."

Welcome to Bloat-Free software!
The software is for Windows based
PC's in various areas. This software is
meant for the home user or small
business user that really does not need
all the "Junk pile of accessories" that
some companies seem to think we
need.
The goal is to create and develop
products alongside our customers'
requests. This small team and I try to
create powerful and yet simple designed
software for ease of use. I always need
your feedback to help learn what you
require from the programs. I take your
requests very seriously and will try to
accommodate them for you.
Effective Aspects is a program I use
within my teaching job for keeping
track of lesson plans, and notes, etc. I
also use it for brainstorming ideas for
my software. I also use it to keep tabs
of software changes in a journal that's
lasted since 1999.
A big
thank you to some sites.
Without these people's efforts
Effective Aspects would look a lot
different.

How are your prices so cheap?
Our prices are low because for us it
means this website and software stay
where they are. This is a small business,
so small it's just one person to keep it
running. So as I said, any money this
site makes goes right back into
it.
But if
they're cheap doesn't that mean low
quality?
NOPE! Not at all. The money is second place. First is our software. The
software should be first in any company, naturally, but for us that is
very true. My plan is to make software (free and trial) that runs in
partnership with your views and ideas, therefore, you are in charge of
the program's direction (with my guidance).
If you don't believe this, then get in touch with me. I will be more than happy to help you.
Thanks for listening,
Nigel Openshaw.
