about:Nikos is the CEO and founder of SocialCaddy (www.socialcaddy.com), the first CRM for friends. A truly magical application, SocialCaddy changes the way we manage the people in our life and, ultimately, makes us a better friend. It was only when he realized that SocialCaddy's needed a Hummer-sized data processor that Nikos, desperate for a solution, discovered Erlang, Google AppEngine and Closure. It was love at first sight. Now he spends most of his time figuring out the amazing business implications of the high concurrency prowess of Erlang and evangelizing the merits of AppEngine to other start-ups in New York and Athens, Greece.

In his life before SocialCaddy, Nikos worked for non-geeky brands like VOGUE and The Wall Street Journal. He is a total sucker for anything made by Apple and, when not playing squash, he is in front of his computer going through thousands of feeds on Google Reader.
