The Winner of the Cloud Hero Contest!

To recap, in early June we announced our "Cloud Hero Contest" to hear the most inspiring success story of Refinder users. The greatest Cloud Hero is awarded with a GoPro HD HERO2 Camera. We wanted to hear your company's mission, what problems you had had with cloud applications, and how Refinder has helped you solve these problems. 

Thanks to all Refinder users who participated, there were twelve submissions which we are going to publish on our website in the next weeks. The submitting companies and individuals were:

Everyone deserves a price, so everyone gets a cloud badge (to the right), yet there can only be one to make the race and win the camera.


Stowe Boyd, from Work Talk Research was the judge on the submissions, and analyzed each by originality, depth of use, and call out. His choice fell to:

"MONOCHROM! - they are too good!"
The Refinder team gratulates the winners!

monochrom is an Austrian group of artists that currently organizes their first major movie called "Sierra Zulu". It's an alternate world sci-fi comedy about the last existing (and insignificant) Soviet state - the People's republic of Soviet Unterzoegersdorf. You can learn more and also support them at their kickstarter campaign.
We wish them a great time filming for their movie - with a brand new Go Pro HD HERO 2

The use of Refinder came in very handy, but it's best put in the words of Director Johannes Grenzfurthner:

"With Refinder, I took this unbelievable and chaotic bunch of apps and tools and connected them into one Refinder project. Victory! Now I was able to share all about Sierra Zulu with the core team. 

I integrated the tweets, Dropbox, and Flickr using RSS. Part of the production team is now part of this Refinder project and we are enjoying access to the production data in one place."
