Eric Kinney is responsible for managing the increasingly complex technical issues both inside and outside of RichContent.
With an extensive history as both employer and founder of telecommunications companies and technology/advertising businesses, Eric brings his broad scope of talent to the RichContent team.
Eric founded City Link in the late 80's, developing a powerful and profitable intralata telecommunications business in the Portland metro area. In addition, he was cofounder of Access Communications, a Portland metro area ISP (Internet Service Provider), recently acquired by a growing Vancouver, WA communications firm.
Eric's history also includes several years as a registered Macintosh software developer, during which time he wrote the Mac version of Paladin Measuring System's pen-based blueprint takeoff software. In addition, Eric brings with him deep experience in the graphic arts field, including owning and operating Ink Spot Graphics Design, and developing a revolutionary 2-color printing process named Richtone, which gives images a 4-color impact using only two colors. Eric was critical in the development and operation of the eXpertSystem+eXpertLingo Creativity Suite, and worked tightly with RichContent's software development team to provide a roadmap for the application’s functionality. Eric can be reached at HERE.

Development Team: RichContent is fortunate to have found Altuit Design, a Texas-based software firm seasoned in both interface and code design for usability. Chipp Walters and Chris Bohnert handled the majority of the coding chops, making eXpertSystem+eXpertLingo an extremely robust, stable and feature-rich application. Though outsourced, the firm acts like an inhouse development team, extending our capabilities and helping to quickly adjust the technology to meet client needs.
In 17 years of working in software development, we have never worked with a more competent, insightful and easygoing group of folks than Chipp and Altuit.
