Matias Piipari joins Mekentosj

Monday, June 21st, 2010

We couldn’t be more happy with Matias Piipari joining Mekentosj Inc. to take the iOS versions of our apps to a whole new level.

Back in February last year we launched Papers for iPhone, allowing you to take your personal library of science wherever you go. We were already super excited with its success and the reactions from its users, but compared to that the recent launch of the iPad version has just blown us away. We worked really hard to get Papers for iPad ready at launch day, and to see how much users are loving the app is absolutely phenomenal. We’re sure that especially for those users it will be great to hear that Matias will take this momentum and do his best to bring our iOS apps to the next level! He already has a ton of ideas and we can’t wait to ship them to you in a next version of Papers for iPhone, iPod touch and iPad. Check out Matias’ profile page and wish him luck!

Papers wins 2010 Ars Design Award!

Monday, June 7th, 2010

WOW! This morning we got the news that Papers has won another design award! Ars technica, one of our favorite websites, decided to hold its own ADA (Ars Design Awards) ceremony when Apple announced it wouldn’t do one for Mac OS X apps this year. Ars asked its readers to nominate the best Mac OS X apps in 5 different categories and we were very happy to see Papers nominated for Best Education app. And then came the announcement on the Ars technica website this morning that we had actually won! We’re very honoured and happy that Papers has now got two design awards behind its name. A big thanks to anyone who nominated Papers!

This means we will soon receive a second shiny aluminum cube! Awesome!
