defend new orleans black & gold tee

We recently picked up hosting duties for defend new orleans, and Jac was kind enough to set us up with some bangin tees.   Muchos Gracias, amigo!

gott gourmet cafe

Huge fans of this casual but delicious place on Magazine.  The food is spectacular but accessible – rarely do we all leave a table so universally pleased with our meal.  I thought that the Gott Salad was ridiculously good (topped with panko-friend brie croquettes – are you kidding me?), and the guys all raved about their sandwiches, all served on great-looking paninis.  Allan says that the weekend breakfasts are incredible – Thumbs way up.

We recently designed and launched a new Flash site for Landry Architecture, a New Orleans-based regional architecture firm. The site features a simple but stylish presentation of architecture and planning projects.

eyeblaster – rich media campaign management

We recently produced a somewhat complex rich media campaign for a national food brand, and worked with Eyeblaster for the first time.  Neat system for managing campaigns – it facilitates the submission & preview of rich media assets for deployment to traffic agencies or publications.  One cool feature is the ‘preview in context’ function, allowing the user to place rich media units into any active website for contextual previewing.

The Historic New Orleans Collection approached us recently, asking for an enhanced method to accept online donations.  We developed a cost-effective but robust PayPal-based system and integrated it into their internally-designed and managed site.  The interface provides a number of options, including variable and recurring scheduled payments, a ‘give anonymously’ toggle, and a ‘tribute gift’ attribution mechanism – all tucked into a clean, nested form via jquery sliders.

Ustream – broadcast iPhone video

Oh my.  This one looks very cool, and has got the office pretty fired up.  Broadcast streaming video from your iPhone.  Dangerous.

Ustream.TV is the live interactive video broadcast platform that enables anyone with a camera and an Internet connection to quickly and easily broadcast to a global audience of unlimited size.

Our friends Erik and Rami developed this gorgeous portfolio management system for artists.  Along with the system, they provide custom designed artist portfolios with support and hosting, all on an affordable budget.

flutter – WordPress custom write panels

We’re playing with Flutter for one-off type CMS needs – seems really good, though Ben has found some pretty serious bugs – if we can work around or resolve them, This may be a great, light solution for simple client edit needs.

mockflow – online wireframing/UI tool

We’re still road testing this web-based app, but so far it looks pretty neat.  Drag & Drop UI wireframe builder with a good library of frequently-used icons and devices.  Wireframes are always tricky to keep up to date, so we’ll see how well mockflow treats us over the long haul and report back…

theo’s pizza

Our office was delighted a few weeks ago to see a new Theo’s had opened up on Canal in Mid-City.  Same menu as the Magazine store.  Aside from the killer pizza, the Jalapeno Bread Sticks are bangin, the drinks are gargantuan, and the staff’s great.  We’re big fans.
