Awesome Flight Attendant
If you have ever been on an airplane you have heard a flight attendant stand at the front of the plane before takeoff and they go through their whole speech of safety, etc. and what to expect on the flight. That’s pretty standard. I received an email this morning from a client which contained a link of the following video which I really felt was worth sharing! I don’t want to give away the contents of the video so just take a look.
Google is Always Looking Out
Google is always on top of it’s game with trying to make it’s services better and better for it’s users. There are so many great tools that Google offers (mostly for free) to help people in so many ways. There are the obvious tools for searching. There are tools for blogging. There are webmaster tools and they have their videos section and the list seems to go on and on. And one of the cool things about Google is that they don’t stop because something is going well. They continue to put out new products and ideas that it’s no wonder that Google holds more than 60% of internet searches. I watched a short video today that I thought I might pass through our site to help our clients and visitors who may not have noticed a small changed on Google.
What the Incrediblend?
Incrediblend is a new project that we recently started that isn’t really a new idea, perse; however, it’s bringing an idea down to a local community. We love to look at the different web design galleries that are all over the world and we’ve been fortunate enough to be featured in a few (CSS Mania, Unmatched Style, CSS Fresh Blend, and more…). So basically Incrediblend is a design gallery showcasing great websites designed by Lehigh Valley based design teams. Since we love to submit our sites to galleries all over the world we thought it might be a cool idea to showcase work from teams close to home. It’s a bit of an interesting thought because we’re kinda promoting our competition but the overall goal is to bring quality design to the Valley.
How We Work
A couple weeks ago I got an email from Paul of Digital Hand who is located in the UK. Paul had a couple questions to ask us on how we work so he could possibly get some insight from us to better help his client base. If there is only one thing that I have learned from the web community, it is that there are so many truly awesome things out there to help people with questions. So the tutorials on our site is kinda our way of trying to help to give back to the community and maybe us answering a couple questions might be able to help some people out there. Now there are tons and tons of ways to get the job done so our answers may not be someone else’s or even work for someone else. These answers are simply how we do things. And please, if you have any thoughts that you might be able to add please don’t hesitate to comment!
Making Great Presentations
For those of you who have browsed our site you may have seen our little video on how we handle most web design projects. In this entry we’re going to give you a really quick overview as to how we put that together. The biggest key is that we used Keynote to make it! Keynote is an Apple application (sorry PC users) that is simply awesome. It’s extremely dynamic, clean and easy to use. For PC users, it’s basically a much easier to use, better version of PowerPoint (in our opinion). It has beautiful transitions and effects that help make your presentations pop.
