So where do I start? The last month has been crazy. We accepted our first Webby Award, won a bunch of new gigs, brought on a few new people, and continue to churn out great work.

We accept this award for the people of Boston…
We had a great time at the Webbys accepting the award for mbta.com. Mike D conceived and delivered the best five-word acceptance speech ever given for a Transit website: “Fewer Boston Drivers…your welcome!”

Can you find RDVO on the red carpet?

The after-party was even more fun than the show. DJ Jazzy Jeff dee-jayed the night away where Ben was the subject of one more five-word speech: “Most tragic dance moves…ever.”

New Projects
We’re pleased to announce several great new projects. We’re now working on the user experience for the new trip planner for 511.org, a roll-up of San Francisco transit organizations. We’re also working on the redesign for Carbonite, a online backup provider, and are working with online community provider Communispace on planning out their new online marketing platform.

We also have a couple of new engagements working on product UI that we’ll be announcing soon.

More coming soon…
