In the wake of the Fadtastic story about the Frazier Media logo, a number of gallery sites have placed our site on their lists, and we're thankful for both the links and the opportunity to put the site up for public scrutiny. Here is a list of sites that have linked to us in the last day or so...

  • CSS Remix - A great gallery of sites that make the most of standards based web design
  • Web Creme - A very interesting, minimalist design gallery
  • The Daily Slurp - Thumbnails of cool sites, daily
  • Gathering in Light - Not a gallery site, but I really like his site.
If the site has a voting option, go ahead and give us a critique.

Digital Photography Blogs
Blogging, these days, is our obsession. Check out one of our newest designs at Digital Photography Blogs. From creating a custom theme and plugins to updating the code for WordPress Multiuser (the engine the network runs on), we’ve become quite comfortable with blog tech.

I have to admit that it's a little weird seeing the F-clamation logo next to Shaun Inman (whose code makes our fount use on this site possible). Check out their story and let them know what you think of the logo.

Glued Ideas’ focus is to create new technologies that make identifying information that people are interested in easier. Our flagship product is Glue, a deep preference analysis engine that can be used by just about any site on the Internet to provide product or content recommendations to it’s users. Expect an open beta during the summer!

So what part does Frazier Media have in working with Glued Ideas? In addition to helping provide user interface design expertise and general guidance, we also have built their showcase blog network, Digital Photography Blogs, which will be the first place the Glue line of products will show up. This has been an exciting project and we have learned quite a bit about what makes a successful publishing network on the Internet. If you’re interested in Digital Photography Blogs, feel free to contact us for more information.

Oh - and make sure to check out Chris and his wife Amy’s blog, Shooting the Kids.

One of the main selling points for DiMichi shoes is that their shoes are great for people on the go who want a more comfortable, stylish shoe. Take a look at what they sell - you might be looking at your next favorite pair of shoes.

A Brand New CMS

On the development side of things, we implemented a content management system (CMS) for them that makes managing their site simpler. This particular CMS was created by Clarus Networks for Frazier Media and is being used on a number of other sites as well. One of the biggest advatnages of the Clarus CMS is that it allows for on page (but not inline) editing of content, making the process of learning to edit pages much easier than having to learn how to use a whole other tool for editing page content.

Keep your eyes open here for updates on the Clarus CMS - if things go well they may release it as Open Source so that developers all around the world can make use of their fine tool.

In many ways, this site has been a learning experience for Frazier Media - we tried new technologies that were “bleeding edge” and barely documented. We tried quite a few content management systems and rebuilt the site each time we tried a new one. In the end, we came away with a site that will allow fans to connect with the band and with each other.

In the next week or so, expect a client spotlight about them outlining the successes and pitfalls that we discovered building this site.
