We started to notice www.setfive.com was starting to show some signs of age so I figured it was time to give it some web 2.0 love. It’s still basically the same site but the HTML+CSS have been modernized, we updated some copy, and added some screenshots to the client page.
Anyway, without further ado check it out at www.setfive.com
I’ve also slowly started updating my Github! First up, check out a Setfive Boilerplate to help your bootstrap projects.
Earlier today we launched Boston Built in collaboration with our friends at Bocoup, UpStatement, and SignedOn
Basically, Boston built allows you to “represent” by either adding a graphic logo or a 1×1 tracking pixel to your site via Javascript. Then, the bostonbuilt.org site will pick you up and list your favicon along side the other sites that are including the tracking code.
BostInnovation has a nice write up and a poll at The ‘Built in Boston’ initiative.
Happy Friday!
Recently we’ve launched a new site for a client called Purpose Beverages: http://trackyourimpact.com . We’ve received great feedback from users so far. The site uses a wide range of technologies. It is built on symfony and uses the Apostrophe CMS to manage the main parts of the site. It integrates with a SMS provider to allow you text into it to find out more about your purchase.
Tēvolution is a new brand of tea on the market that does good with each purchase. Every time someone buys it they done a specific amount(for example 25 cents) to a specific charity. In order to find out how large of a donation and what charity your bottle goes to you can actually text the code found on the bottle to the website, or you can login in on your phone browser or regular browser and enter the code. You will find out how much and to whom you just donated money to!
Right now Tēvolution is just coming to the market so keep your eyes peeled for it! It’s a great product that does good!
I realized this morning that Anonymous Coward’s Facebook Phonebook Greasemonkey script broke awhile back so I decided to rewrite it from scratch.
The original instructions for how to install the script are available here.
I updated the original Userscripts page with the new script so you can download it here.
Wow two in one day! Well it has taken some time, but along with the WeGov team we launched WeGov.com this morning.
From the site’s about us:
WeGov.com is the most comprehensive, nonpartisan platform for civic engagement, political participation, and organizational activism. WeGov provides a free and open environment for groups, campaigns, and like-minded citizens to organize themselves, easily reach elected officials, and magnify their influence as a VerifiedVoter™.
We’re really excited to see where WeGov goes and how it will reshape the online political landscape. For WeGov media and press inquiries, please email info@wegov.com. Otherwise, to get in touch with us shoot off an email to contact@setfive.com.
Hope everyone has a great Memorial Day weekend.
