Yellowseed Web Design Services

In Canada sunny Sundays are when we head out for some climbing or lake swimming. Here in South India, sunny Sundays are about eating Birhyani and hiding in the shade. The 35 C+ afternoon heat is an energy drain. To stay cool on this blistering Sunday, we’ve taken our positions in front of our respective computers - Rik squashing bugs, Natalka getting Sugared and myself - bouncing between booking a room in Bangkok and learning more about the Golden Temple. The past three weeks have been rich. We’ve set up our office, hired 2 new programmers, taken 2 road-trips and joined in the full-moon walk (14km) around the mountain.

Namaste, greetings from India!  This is the first installment in a series of blogs that follows the Yellowseed team as we set up a web-development office in South India. Over the next four weeks I’ll share info about traveling in India, hiring Indian programmers, setting up a office and nurturing an effective and happy team. More has happened here in the last three days than a month in our home-town of Nelson, BC. While I have a plan for this series - being in India has taught me that plans (like traffic rules) are arbitrary. Sometimes it’s best to go with the flow!

Inspired by the famous quote from Gandhi about being the change you want to see in the world, we've launched the BeChange Package. This is a bundle of services designed for individuals and small businesses creating positive change. Our current focus is to support coaches and teachers in the health and wellness industry but we'll soon be expanding it to include other social entrepreneurs. The BeChange services include managed marketing and logistics backed by an integrated website and CRM system.

Nelson radio station CJLY, 93.5FM in Nelson BC launched a new website today. The new site a sweeping upgrade for the station with sections for each show, a member forum, downloaded files, news, comments and more. In addition to creating the site, Yellowseed created a podcasting system for the station that currently delivers weekly shows through iTunes to the world.

We're pleased to introduce Yellowseed's lead programmer (and newest staff member) Balakrishnan Somasundaram.

Centennial Canoe Outfitters Inc. take viewers on a scenic ride down the wild rivers of Colorado in a new video released today on You Tube.

Marty Generaux and Julia Gumper, owners, shot the video over a whole summer and sent it to Yellowseed for compilation and upload.  The canoeing video will also be displayed at http://www.centennialcanoe.com.

We launched NCES.ca today, a website for a local non-profit group (NCES = Nelson Citizen Empowerment Society).

After profiles on digg.com and MSNBC, the Great News Network surpassed the 20,000 visitor per day mark. The site has received great reviews for its comprehensive summary of the day's positive news and its easy-to-use layout. The site also provides a great system of positive news RSS feeds based on topic and region.

After many months of planning and work, we've finally launched our new website. This is a major plank in the development of Yellowseed 2.0 - a faster, friendlier and better quality web design company. We redesigned our logo, motto, accounting, customer support and we've made a new committment to web standards like XHTML 1.0 and CSS 2.0 (Painful irony: this site isn't completely compliant - dratted Internet Explorer has forced us to comprise). Anyways, hope you enjoy it and if you have any questions please email us or send a ticket through our Consulting and Support system.
