Callalily Luxury E-commerce Website

Callalily Luxury E-commerce Website   When we were asked by US-based Callalily Luxury to build a website to showcase and sell luxury skincare products, we were initially overwhelmed by the requirements. The site required a straightforward secure e-commerce platform, as well as a tiered wholesale membership system with options for all tiers to be able to bulk-order. In addition, we also had to integrate a membership rewards system that hooked up with social media - in other words, ant 'likes' or 'shares' or 'comments' on social media would earn the member points that could be redeemed by discounts against product purchases.

Pronto On Flinders Restaurant Website

Pronto On Flinders Restaurant Website   I've been buying my coffee twice a day at Pronto On Flinders for the last few years, and because I'm such a coffee nut, I've been doing it because Ele and his team simply make the best coffee in Melbourne. I know that's only an opinion, but they make it just the way I like it. Consistently. Somehow the topic of websites came up in conversation, and before I knew it, Ele was asking me to build a site for him. Not only did he want the standard type of restaurant content - menus, [...]

Object Of Desire : New Website by JRD

Object Of Desire is a site where you can find not just what's new, but whats stylish and sometimes unusual, uncommon and definitely cool. It's a blog and an e-commerce store. Sophie Taylor’s innate sense of style and space, as well as her knowledge of the technical aspects of website development made this e-commerce website both a joy and a challenge to complete. It’s great to have a client who knows exactly what she wants and won’t accept anything less than perfect. Her attitude towards her business is equally precise and I’m proud to have been able to represent her [...]

Android co-founder jumps ship

Andy Rubin leaves Google to set up startup incubator for hardware technology. Rubin sold Android to Google in 2005 and ran the Android development until 2013 when he moonwalked to head up the "moonshot" robotics project team. Now Rubin's focus will be more on hardware than internet services. It'll be interesting to see what his tightly-focussed and entrepreneurial ways will do to hardware development. Google/Android's tight hand-in-glove partnership with Samsung might have persuaded Rubin that a more open arrangement would be better for the end user and his share portfolio so hopefully his team will come up with some really funky that [...]

Using Web Fonts

Tips on using Web Fonts Many times I've found myself wondering what font or typeface has been used on a website, particularly in these days when the availability is not restricted to just what the end user has installed on their local computer system. Being an ex-typesetter from the days when type was set in metal, and leading (line-height) was actually a piece of lead, I've always been fascinated with type. For a long time, web browsers have disallowed the use of fonts except for the most pedestrian and over-used varieties, and as the general public we've been punished unduly [...]

The Seven Digital Deadly Sins

I wouldn't normally just post a link to someone else's ideas or work, but this collaboration between the National Film Board of Canada and The Guardian is really quite amazing. Apart from having a great interface and user experience, the content is full of wittily factual nuggets and I dare anyone to walk away from the experience without learning something new. If you find that you do suffer from any of the Seven Digital Deadly Sins, turn off your phone, unplug the computer and take yourself out for a walk in the rain. Check out The Seven Digital Deadly Sins.
