A family in need.

Friday, September 28, 2007
Imagine that you're sitting through a storm at home, when suddenly a tornado rips apart your house, with you escaping only moments before.

This is what happened to the Benko family recently in Cupar, Saskatchewan. Our client, Joe Toth from Linear Systems, who is related to the Benko family, asked us to help and we responded by building a custom Wordpress blog site to help the family raise funds to recover from this terrifying event.

Please help them if you can.

gotData.ca Launch

Thursday, September 27, 2007
There's an old saying - "The only things in life which are certain are death and taxes."

Well, in our electronic world, add computer crashes and hard drive failures to that list. Traditional backup services are cumbersome, and hardly know what to do with laptops.

We're pleased to announce that our client, Seerx Technologies, a Winnipeg based IT company has launched gotdata.ca, an online data backup service. GotData.ca simplifies system backups whether it's a desktop PC or highly mobile notebook, and the cost starts at only $5.95 per month.

Three new Client Sites launched!

Monday, September 17, 2007
It's been a busy week. With background music composed of hammers and saws, our production team has launched three new client sites this week. Good work team!

Imperial Steel
A good example of a Presentation class site, we integrated a simple flash animation showcasing their key manufacturing process.

Climate Change Connection
Ready to help save the planet? Manitoba's Climate Change Connection is devoted to helping connect Manitobans to climate change facts and solutions. We designed the overall look and feel for this site, and integrated our Point and Edit functionality, so that the client would be able to easily update the website content themselves - in fact, they built all of the website content themselves! Congratulations Curt Hull - you are now a webmaster!

LibreStream Technologies
Beyond video conferencing, this innovating Winnipeg company has developed a new category - mobile video collabortation. Their unique technology, the n_sight MVCS looks like a digital camera, but is really an amazing collaboration tool - allowing experts to solve problems through remote video collaboration. We were pleased to be able to work on this site, which combines flash animation, extensive content and a back-end dealer portal system. Watch this company.. they will change we work.
