Often it might seem that we write a lot about mid-to-large sized startups here at TechNation Australia.

But that’s not the site’s sole focus. What we really want to do is write about Aussie tech startups of all sizes. Sometimes that’s not easy because of the lack of information out there, but from time to time we come across people that are willing to tell their story. Like Nicholas from Wedding Countdown.

I ran into Nicholas yesterday at Sydney Open Coffee and we spoke about his site - Wedding Countdown.

Wedding Countdown provides desktop and website widgets that countdown to the big day. If you’ve never been married, then you might say, so what? If you have been married, or have been involved in the wedding process, then you’ll know that (whether you’re on of them or not) there are a lot of people out there that would love something like this.

There’s a link off the site to Our Wedding Scene another site developed by Nicholas that lets people create their own free wedding site. This is similar in concept to TechNation Australia writer Geoff Evason’s super successful site Momentville.  (maybe this is another cluster forming in the Aussie tech startup industry )

In any case, wedding websites and widgets are gold because you’ve always got new, enthusastic users coming through. So far Nicholas tells me his Wedding Countdown widgets have been downloaded a few thousand times, which shows that there’s a market for this sort of thing.

We’ll keep an eye on Nicholas and some of the other plans he spoke to me about in the near future but, in the meantime, if you’re working a smaller project make sure you don’t sit back and think that we’re not interested in covering you, because it’s not true.

Just contact us and we’ll have a chat. Promise.
