Short links today are a huge part of social communication and metrics. Making short links is usually a simple task and is sometimes even automated to save character space. For a while now services like bit.ly have been making it easy to create, track and share links through their service. Even Google has http://goo.gl to do this as well. About a year ago, we found a good 3 character domain name - http://mdg.me which would lend itself perfectly to being a short url creator but the task of creating this meant a descent amount of development time. However - the friendly folks at http://www.yourls.org have created a lightweight set of PHP scripts to help you easily setup one of these services on your own. The process is simple - create a database, make some modifications to the config.php, upload the files, activate the admin area and you are ready to go. You can make your service public or private (ours is private) and get detailed analytics on all of the links you create. As a note, because of the rewrites necessary for the link shortening in the .htacess file I decided to make the redirect at the root of mdg.me in plain HTML. If you have an extra domain that is short in character length this is a quick easy way to create your own custom links!
It's been over three years since we began working with Blick&Staff Communications and today we're excited to show off their new site. As you can imagine, a lot of things can change in a three year period and one of the things for Blick was their image. So naturally, one of the first places to show off your new look and feel is your digital presence. When we started looking at the project with Blick it quickly evolved from a landing page to an informative single page site. We were excited with the challenges this brought on and are even more pleased with the outcome. Here's how we did it... Amanda worked with the Blick team to craft a new look based around "Imaginative, Meaningful Communications." We started development with a static HTML site and implemented some jQuery features to dress it up a bit. One of the main features of the site is the fixed navigation. When you click on a menu item the page will either scroll down or up to the desired content. We also used a content slider to feature some of the their recent work. The image below is a preview of the full site but you can see it in action by heading over to www.blickandstaff.com.
