welcome to thinking virtually

making the web work for you

What we do, or try to do is simply help people to make the web work for them.

It’s important to understand that a website can serve a multitude of purposes and people and organisations that own them can be just as wide and diverse.

What we do is look at the individual, group or company and just ask ‘what do you want from the internet?’ and then thing ‘what could the internet do for you’.

A Great Weekend

(This was posted 8 months, 3 weeks, 5 days, 10 hours, 43 minutes's ago.)

In spite of the ridiculous cold weather the weekend was great fun.

Sunday dinner at the mother in laws saw an all out Nerf battle between the forces of good and evil (me and my son Jamie and my brother in law and his girlfriend).

Saturday was a little calmer, helping Jamie to beat me at chess (not going to live that down for a time...).

And knowing that I am just about ready for Christmas.

This week is going to be interesting as we are about to rebuild a long standing clients website using our CMS (ExpressionEngine) as well as play with another clients site. We have a business networking website to build and a storage solutions website to build – so going to be busy, busy, busy!

Thinking Virtually on the iPhone

(This was posted 8 months, 4 weeks, 2 days, 4 hours, 37 minutes's ago.)

Just because we had some time and I’m a geek we have developed a limited version of our site that is optimised for the iPhone.

Thinking Virtually iPhone means that you will soon be able to see our lovely site on your iPhone without having to zoom in and out!

Is it a gimic.... yes. Was it universally accepted/wanted in the office.... no. Most importantly though is what does your website look like to mobile browsers?

Automatic Twitter and Facebook Updates

(This was posted 8 months, 4 weeks, 2 days, 8 hours, 20 minutes's ago.)

Automatic Twitter and Facebook updates are here!

We have been working on a way of getting our blog to update the entries on the social networking sites that we are members of without having to do x, y, z and a combination of other things.

Well thanks to a combination of a new module for ExpressionEngine, Ping.fm and our bloody minded approach to development we are there!

This is a technical thing so I won’t bore you with it but the long and short is that we can now send anything entered into our preferred CMS to an email recipient or a social networking site.

If you can’t do this or if you have to go through x, y, z, and so on give us a call so we can show you a simpler approach.
