Acmesofts

Acmesofts started in a small room on 9 H Cross Street in Senthilnagar. We are right here in Kolathur, Chennai-99, which is a place where everybody knows their neighbors. I’m usually at my desk by nine, trying to fix code or talking to someone about a website. It gets pretty humid in this part of Chennai, so the fans are always spinning fast. We aren't a big corporation with hundreds of people, just a few of us who know our way around a computer. Sometimes the internet acts up when it rains, and we just sit and wait it out while drinking some tea from the shop down the road. The office address is 101, and it's easy to find if you know the landmark. We’ve been here for a good few years now. Most of our work comes from people nearby who need something fixed or a small program built. We don’t have fancy chairs or a coffee machine that makes lattes. It’s just us, some old desks, and a lot of wires tucked behind the monitors. We try to get things done without making a big fuss about it. The street is usually quiet except for the milk delivery in the morning and some kids playing later on. It’s a good spot for working on software because there aren't too many distractions around here. We have a couple of bookshelves filled with old manuals and empty boxes that we haven't thrown out yet.
