  3. Carsonified Design, Development & Consultancy

    We’ve decided to do a bit of web design, development and consultancy for outside clients in 2009. As the economy is tightening up, we thought it was wise to diversify our revenue streams a bit, just in case.

    We constantly get folks asking if we can build sites or apps for […]

What’s new?

  1. Start-up Clinic #

    I’ll be doing a 1-day workshop for anyone building a start-up. It’s Dec 12th at Carsonifed HQ, and there’s only 12 seats.

    Leaving your 9 to 5 to launch your own company is exciting but a bit scary - especially with the current financial climate. However, downturns in the market are always the best time to start a company, and we can give you the advice you need to succeed. With everything riding on your success you need to make sure that you have the best advice from the folks who’ve done it all before - that’s where Start-up Clinic comes in.

    Hope you can make it!

  4. SXSW Panel Picker #

    I recently found out that I was lucky enough (Thanks Hugh) to have a panel proposal chosen to go forward to the 2009 South by South West (SXSW) Interactive Panel Picker. My panel is called “Build a better team through web app development”. Here’s some background about the idea.

    In July 2008 we spent four days building a Twitter mash up web app called “The Mattinator” using a web framework we had never used before (Django). We conducted the challenge publicly and blogged about each days progress daily. At the beginning of the week we weren’t sure if we would achieve our goals.

    Ultimately the app did launch and we managed to get a post on TechCrunch talking about our project. We learnt a lot of things, both positive and negative. The aim of this panel is to talk about our experiences openly and explain why we feel building a web app in a short space of time will reap rewards for your company.

  5. Facebook platform opens up… #

    Facebook recently announced Facebook Connect which is the next iteration of Facebook Platform that allows users to “connect” their Facebook identity, friends and privacy to any site.

    This latest development will enable users to log into 3rd party sites using their Facebook log in details and also to see which of their other Facebook friends are already using the site, among many other benefits.

    Dave Morin , Senior Platform Manager, confirmed Digg to be the first partner using Facebook Connect and we’re sure many more will follow suit.
