INC Magazine has a great article that looks at the tools that make your life alot easier. 

The following programs are hosted, Web-based applications, meaning there’s nothing to install on your computer or company servers. Most of them are so easy to set up and use that you won’t even be tempted to speed-dial your tech guy. And you can access these services from home, the office, or anywhere you have an Internet connection, which makes it easier for your home office team to travel and for your satellite office employees to stay in the loop and feel part of the team.

ConceptShare is one of the tools mentioned in the article that is both online and in the July 2008 edition of the magazine. Take a look at the tools that they are talking about and see if they are able to help you. I am sure that there are a few tools there that you will want to look at.

We are excited that we were recognized by the magazine as one of the tools that will help businesses improve their daily life at work. Go check out the article and see if the tools can help you. 

Cheers

What is twitter you ask?

{ June 19th, 2008 }

Twitter is over capacity … again. Ruby on Rails at its finest.  Free and easy to program in …but scalable ? Not on your life. How long can a service be a service if it is always down ? 

When it is up Twitter is great.

IDEO Quick Tool

{ June 19th, 2008 }

I love the folks at IDEO, aside from ConceptShare it is my next favorite company out there ….ok that might be a bit of a strech .. but you get the drift.

they have this quick little tool that many designers will find handy. It isn’t a boiled down version of Adobe’s Kuler which we talked about here. But instead it is a quick resource that lets you make sure your text is going to look good on that back ground you have.

Like I said this isn’t kuler by any stech of the imagination nor are they trying to make a kuler killer …although i bet they could if they put their collective thinking caps on. 

Hopefully this will help you make sure that your text is going to be very readable on what ever websafe color your background is. 

Cheers,

Scott
