Who is Tangerine Element?
Bio
Tangerine Element was founded by Dave Murdock in 2006. Dave is a .NET developer that switched to Macs exclusively for home use in 2004. Once the iPhone SDK was announced in March 2008, Dave started developing applications for iPhone/iPod Touch.
iTimeZone, Tangerine Element’s flagship app, was created because Dave thought it would be great to be able to see what time it was for anywhere in the world for any time while in a spec review meeting trying to figure out when India, Singapore, London, and New York could hold a meeting. His tinkering with Mac OS X applications since getting his first Mac gave him an edge in developing iPhone apps, and iTimeZone 1.0 was released when the iPhone App Store launched in July 2008.

Founded
2006
Location
New Jersey
where did you get THE name?
Dave did a lot of debugging of iTimeZone, the flagship app of the company, riding in his Tangerine Honda Element between Vermont and New Jersey. Seemed appropriate to name the company after the “roving office”.
Is that a real periodic table symbol?
Nope, totally fake. Te is Tellurium, and Tg is nothing. Besides, have you ever seen an atomic number of 2006? Now you have.
