Pono Media Founder, L.P. “Neenz” Faleafine has put together a team of local programmers; Kaeo Kepani, Zen Lao, and Tammi Hitchcock.  Only a week into the partnership, the team has already begun developing mobile applications for local businesses.

Faleafine first entered the tech industry in 2007 as an enthusiast and then a writer for Nononina’s citizen media site, Truemors and currently as the Chief Evangelist for the company’s leading news aggregation site, Alltop.  She is one of Hawaii’s leaders in the social media community speaking to businesses, organizations, and entrepreneurs about creating ones own opportunities as well as providing media solutions and strategy services.

A tourism driven State, Faleafine explained, “With a mobile app, travelers will be able to book their flights, hotels, or activities at the convenience of their smartphones whether they own a Blackberry, iPhone, or Droid.”

For retail and manufacturing businesses, a mobile application will allow customers around the globe to easily order products or local residents can send their family and friends gifts.  As a business owner with children who have equally busy lives, Faleafine envisions more personal luxuries, “I’d like to be able to order and pay for dinner from Haili’s while watching my son’s soccer practice via an app built by Pono Media, powered by Motherapp.”

Pono Media is looking to empower every Hawaii business and organization with their own mobile application and will be looking towards doing the same in Guam and the rest of Polynesia later this year.
