What’s Wufoo I hear you say? An odd name for a WEB2.0 application indeed but don’t let the name put you off; Wufoo is one of the most useful, value-adding web apps we’ve seen in a long time or as Wufoo’s developers put it…

“Wufoo strives to be the easiest way to collect information over the Internet”.

Wufoo’s HTML form builder helps you create contact forms, online surveys, and invitations so you can collect the data, registrations and online payments you need without writing a single line of code.

The federal disability commissioner has threatened to “name and shame” government departments and agencies which do not make public information accessible to people with disabilities.

Propeller have been working with Pro Plaster, one of Australia’s largest plastering and plaster accessories distributors and retailers, for some time on their print marketing materials, catalogues and such like.

With design reviews and content delivery being an inexact science in web design, it can occasionally seem like we’re working behind the scenes for months with nothing to show for it and 2008 has been no different, with very few launches in the first couple of months and then bam! Bringing up the rear of a hectic May rollout schedule, Medilaw brings our 2008 website launches to 8.

We are proud to announce the launch of a new website for the creators of Brisbane’s yummiest pasta – CJ’s Pasta!

After we gave them a fresh new look with an updated logo last year, the team at CJ’s Pasta decided it was time to re-vamp their website to fit in with their new branding and make it easier for their customers to see their daily specials and latest menus.

I came across this great little article on website compatibility by Jonathan Crossfield over at Netregistry this morning and thought it worthy of sharing with you. The issues covered go without saying for most standards-aware developers though sadly we see far too many websites clearly designed by windows-only developers which break in other browsers or operating systems.
