Newly Completed E-Commerce Website!

Posted on Thu, 03/25/2010 - 21:34

Our team recently completed an e-commerce site for Motorcycle Parts Liquidators. Integrated with a content management system (CMS), our client can use a backend admin interface to add, remove and update products, pages and content on the site. The CMS also allows consumers to create a login for making and tracking purchases from Motorcycle Parts Liquidators. In this development we did not implement the content, however in most cases we do implement content when necessary for clients that need extra help or an eye for layout and typography.

Virtual Clearview Launched - Web Portal / Virtual World

Posted on Thu, 09/17/2009 - 04:23

We are proud to announce the development of the Virtual Clearview web based portal / virtual world counseling center. This web based portal is used to register their mental health patients for the virtual counseling center, as well as to provide resources, agendas, and even the ability to launch the virtual world from the web site in order to have a private counseling session with their mental health facilitator. This service is currently only available to the current members of Clearview Recovery until the start of the year where they will be opening the service up to the general public. This system is fully integrated into the virtual world so that users can post questions and comments to their counselor and it will show up in the web based system. They are able to schedule appointments with their counselor using the automated system that is tied into both the virtual world and into the web site allowing for synchronization between both systems. We are proud of this development and look forward to watching Virtual Clearview provide a virtual counseling service to their clients.
