Inspired by Matt Webb at BERG we thought we’d start posting weekly updates on what we’re up to. Apparently this is the 199th week we are in business. The concept has spread and even has it’s own site at weeknotes.com. So without further ado…
We all worked together on launching some tweaks on last seasons hit at UNICEF. A giftshop with blankets, vaccines, footballs and more. The gifts you buy are sent to children that actually need them, you get a nice gift certificate to give away. Now you know where to buy presents for christmas.
Arvid has finished a small project for Dennis Blomberg who runs Nollimages, a stock-photo agency. The project involved getting acquainted once again with his lost friend PHP. Now you can buy illustrations by Liselotte Watkins, printed on canvas by ProCenter.
Joel has been working on a couple of projects for Daytona recently, writing markup, style and javascript. Can’t tell who they were for though. I also helped out a bit while he was drinking beer i Prague.
I’ve been trying hard to finish a re-design of Ungdomsstyrelsens site. It’s long overdue, it started more than a year ago, but should be finished any day now. I’ve also spent some time with our friends at Oktavilla. They are helping us defining content strategy and information architecture for unicef.se.
The development on PortfolioDeck has unfortunately been quite slow. We did get the chance to have a workshop with our good friend Henrik about pricing. He did his master thesis at KTH on “Pricing Strategies for selling Software as a Service”. It was both fun, interesting and extremely helpful. More on that later. Thanks Henrik!
One big step for PortfolioDeck though is that we released the first portfolio built and designed with the app. The site is for our friend, and former office-mate, Frank Aschberg. Go check it out!
Btw, Henrik and David have been keeping us company at the office while working on their personal projects the last couple of months. Yesterday they released their iPhone app for citysounds.fm. It’s mighty cool.
