Most of the work we do is business-related. It’s not often we get the chance to really get wild and totally creative. So when Robin approached us a few months ago about redesigning her personal site, we jumped at the chance.
The site is filled with fun details, from the post footers:
to the date container:
to the bee that follows you as you hover over the links:
I just want to say thanks very much to Robin for letting us have so much fun!
We’ve been very hard at work over at PrimetimePolitics.com adding new features and refining the design. The Featured Debate is now loading using Ajax, which speeds up the page load quite dramatically. I also recently added a bit of javascript that pulls in the favicons of the sites we’re linking to, which gives an immediate visual cue to what the site is about.
The hard work is really paying off. We’ve seen average daily visits jump from the low hundreds to 1100+ in just a few days. Of course, the content might have something to do with that.
We’ll be rolling out a very cool addition to the site early next week that we hope will really increase the usefulness of this already useful site. Stay tuned for more!
This is probably not the most appropriate venue for this rant, but I’ll live with the consequences.
People: like you, we work hard. Like you, we have families, friends, hobbies, and passions above and beyond work.
Especially on long weekends, we like to get out of town, unplug, and recharge.
As a general rule of thumb, emails sent and voicemail left after close of business on Friday will be replied to when we’re back in the office the next working day. Please do not send email freaking out when we haven’t responded by Sunday.
Thank you, I feel better now.
The Facebook Application we built for Primetime Politics is really starting to take off. If you’re a facebook user, please check it out!
