Some of our skills:

	Cocoa Cocoa is Apple's name for the collection of frameworks, APIs, and accompanying runtimes that make up the development layer of Mac OS X. By developing with the Cocoa frameworks you will be writing applications the same way that Mac OS X itself is written, with complete access to the full power of the operating system, including the signature Mac look and feel. Cocoa is simply the best way to create native Mac applications.		Javascript and Ajax Ajax (Asynchronous JavaScript and XML), is a group of inter-related web development techniques used for creating interactive web applications. A primary characteristic is the increased responsiveness and interactivity of web pages achieved by exchanging small amounts of data with the server "behind the scenes" so that entire web pages do not have to be reloaded each time there is a need to fetch data from the server. This is intended to increase the web page's interactivity, speed, functionality and usability.
	Python Python is a dynamic, general-purpose, very high-level and object-oriented programming language that can be used for many kinds of multiplatform software development. Its design philosophy emphasizes programmer productivity and code readability. Python's core syntax and semantics are minimalist, while the standard library is large and comprehensive.		Flash Adobe Flash is the standard for delivering high-impact content, allows you to enjoy the most expressive, engaging experiences on the web that combine interactive, rich content with video, graphics and animation also in 3D using cool Flash Actionscript engines such as Papervision3D and Sandy. Designs, animation and application user interfaces are deployed immediately across all browsers and platforms, attracting and engaging users with a new generation of rich web experience.
	PostgreSQL PostgreSQL is a powerful, enterprise class, award winning Open Source relational database system. PostgreSQL has a solid set of features provided by many years of active development and a proven architecture that has earned it a strong reputation for reliability, data integrity, and correctness therefore it is fully ACID and standards compliant.		WordPress WordPress is a state-of-the-art and the most used publishing platform with a focus on aesthetics, web standards, and usability.
