01 Mar 08 _ Ithaca’s New Commons Cam

Exploring Ithaca

Website, that is.

We’ve had our eye on the pedestrian mall for a while and have cleaned up the view before, but never like this.
Several days ago we re-launched a brand new Commons Cam. Aside from the obvious visual differences that go wayback, we wanted to do a little more than provide something fun for everyone to look at. Not that we didn’t improve the overall aesthetic (and there is still more to unveil in the next week!) but we wanted to add some interactivity to the experience as well.

22 May 07 _ Fashion Mongrels Unite! (bloggers too)

tuffpup.comWe’ve all been enjoying the stories that our friend’s over at Tough Pups have been cranking out in their brand new blog: The Tough Pups Gazette. This is version 2.0 of the Gazette and it has already been nominated for some blog awards, go vote!

While the site uses the same technology as our very own Red Frog Blog (WordPress) it has been customized to fit their visual/functionality needs.

So go on over and check out what’s new in the Tough Pups Gazette. The latest story looks very promising.

Thanks pups.

27 Apr 07 _ Oh Yeah… We Completely Redesigned Our Website

I’m not sure how this slipped by sans blog-post, but we completely redesigned and recoded our website, http://www.ancientwisdompro.com! It actually happened about a month or so ago, and we’ve been meaning to send out something about it, but, you know, we got distracted.

So without further delay, let me be the first one to suggest that you all check it out. The new look is awesome in the original sense of the word. And so much is new, it’s hard to know where to begin. Let’s see, you can see our hot new Portfolio, which is but a mere smattering of our previous work. Let’s call it the highlights. Are you curious about us, the Ancient Wisdom team? No more must you wonder about our various visages! Check out the Team page and find out what we look like, Tyler’s favorite waterfowl, and Molly’s sign, among other things. You can even see what we’re currently listening to in our offices, as our iTunes songs get updated live on the sidebar. There’s really no reason for this last feature, except that it is cool to make happen.

Which is pretty much why we do what we do to begin with.

There’s tons of other stuff in our new site too. Check it out. You might be surprised at what you find.

Oh, and all of our code is written to XHTML and CSS standards. You can verify it on every page if you’d like, just to make sure. Look forward to a future post on why we code to standards and why standards are so important to the future of the Web.

If you’re not sure why we’re so excited about our new look, or don’t remember what we looked like in the first place, check out the Internet Archive’s entry on Ancient Wisdom Productions for a walk down memory lane.

As to why it took so long to post about the new site, I can think of a few reasons.

22 Mar 07 _ …Out Like A Lion

thebigbluedoor We’ve been busy around the shop lately and are eager to share the updates that have taken place. Our realtor website service The Big Blue Door has a big new look and 10+ brand new themes to choose from. But the coolest new BBD feature is the free 30 day trial! Realtors, you can now get your site up and running in an hour or less with complete control over your properties and page content (pretty nifty). Check out the demo page to see it in action.

thecommonscam Our ever-amusing Commons Cam has gotten some attention lately, and we’re proud to announce that EarthCam awarded it one of the Top Ten Webcams for the week of March 5th (check out that nifty trophy, and give us a good rating!). We’re also accepting donations to upgrade the cam with the possibility of also having several webcams for multiple views. The future looks promising!

22 Feb 07 _ AWP Redesigns PattiWitten.com!

pw-thumb.jpg When singer/songwriter Patti Witten approached us to redesign her website we knew that she’d want the new look to be as refreshing and unique as her music. Impressively enough, Patti had designed and maintained her website up until calling us (and through the custom content management system we created, she’ll be able to continue updating it!) and was ready for something completely different.

While working with her previous site’s well established structure in mind, we set out into in the wonderful world of Flash with a design inspired by her music and personality. Add a dash of content management functionality and a few pinches of natural goodness, stir, and POW: you’ve got Ancient Wisdom’s latest treat.

Whether you’re familiar with Patti or not, the music alone is worth a trip to her brand new website. Stream her latest album “Tell The Wind” or listen to some tunes from her previous albums, just go check it out!

Pow (again)!
