Facebook Open Graph What Does It Mean For Us?

In case you live on Mars and do not know it – the Open Graph API allows pages on the Web to have all the features of a Facebook Page. Pretty neat huh? Read more here – Open Graph API -

But, what good is a post about a new fandangled thing-a-ma-jig without an example of where I can actually see it at work right? OK. Levis seems to be rocking the API very well in its Online Store. The question is will this work for or against the store? Are 334 people liking the Slim 514 Jeans enough to make me purchase them? Or, will it have the opposite effect? For now, I am NOT buying the 514’s as I am now caught  up in finding the most ‘liked’ pair of jeans on the site, and when I find it – what if I do not ‘like’ them? Oh no!

WordPress Site Launch: Unreal Studio

UnrealStudios_logo-blueOur latest projects is now live. Unreal Studio approached us with some great ideas and a theme they wanted to use as a framework.

Combine Unreal’s ideas with Nicasio’s creativity and WordPress knowledge and you come up with a site anyone would be proud of.

Our in-house designer, Chris Underwood, created all of the custom header graphics on the site from scratch.

One of the more fun aspects was upgrading the client from WordPress 2.2 -> 2.9.2 – blast from the past.

The Importance of APIs in the Future of Web Design

The world of web design and development is changing rapidly. New programming languages, open source blogging and CMS platforms are popping up left and right, and there are more proprietary systems out there than one person could ever hope to learn in one lifetime.

In this world it might seem like web design and development is moving in a thousand different directions, but in reality I think there is one constant that we are going to see grow more and more in the very near future and that is application APIs.
