Our friends at NGS Associates designed the updated look and information architecture of the new Acsis Inc. website, while we consulted on technology and took care of the development phase. After reviewing the goals of Acsis Inc., we recommended WordPress as being an excellent fit for their needs, although it was an edge case scenario: Drupal(…)
Once only considered for major high-traffic sites, since early-2011 Content Distribution Networks (CDNs) have been picking up some traction as several hosting services have begun integrating CDN services directly with their hosting packages to offer to smaller hosting clients. In the recent past, access to CDNs was out of reach for most small operations. The base(…)
Our site runs on WordPress, which isn’t a huge mystery to anyone who’s even slightly savvy with the ol’ computer. When we recently changed our domain name from mediumrarenyc.com to mediumrareinc.com, I installed the 404 Redirected plugin to manage redirects from the old site to the new, and also to capture any missed URLs from(…)

Debby Brown represents 10 photographers who do a variety of types of work in a geographically diverse area. In addition to just showing off(…)
We built this mini-site with the good folks over at Edelman Vancouver for GE Canada’s Fitness Day in 2010, and GE re-used it again in 2011. It was a great little piece that let the various departments of GE measure their fitness activity for a week, trying to get people out of their chairs and(…)
The CMA site is a feat of Drupal engineering: it integrates core, contributed and custom modules and a scratch built theme. There’s really no corner of this project that isn’t thoroughly customized: modal registration forms, refined and tweaked Übercart behaviors, import/export communication with DonorPerfect, numerous levels of user roles interacting with over a dozen content(…)
