What's In a Name?
Many people have asked us at Corvid
Development, "How did you choose your name?". There is a simple answer to this:
Image. Corvid is a name for a family of birds which includes: Ravens, Crows,
Jays, Magpies. These birds personify the image we wish to portray for several
reasons.
Intelligence
The corvids are the smartest of all
birds. They have the ability to learn words as well as to count. They are
quick learners, basically the most intelligent of their kind. At Corvid
Development Inc., we only employ the best of the best.
Tool Users
To date, corvids are the only birds
known for tool use. They use sticks to scrape insects out of hollowed trees,
and different twigs for preening themselves. At Corvid Development, we pride
ourselves on being one of the only software development shops to bring their
own specialized
tools to the job
site, so this image also works for us.
Adapatability
The corvids are known as the most highly
adaptable birds. They live on every continent across the globe in a multitude
of environments. If you are on a mountain top in the Andes, the desert, the
rain forest, or the city, you will likely be able to see a corvid of some kind
living near by. Because of this adaptability, many cultures have myths of
Ravens as shapeshifters. At Corvid Development, we too are adaptable. We adapt
to the clients particular needs with lightning quickness.
