What we’ve been up to lately

Here’s what’s been going on at Livewire in the last few weeks – because, well, why not? It’s a blog ,isn’t it?

Finishing up the LDM iphone app – which has been a big project that has presented us with some unique challenges. The Android version is likely to come out even before the iphone one simply because IOS has some, shall we say, uniqueness to it that makes hooking all 3 systems together a problem.

We’ve taken on some new clients including a really fun website from a English transplant to Gainesville who has ties to the Civil War. The website follows the story of a Thomas Jackson and is really unique. We’re so glad we have a chance to work on a project like this.

Started a new redesign with an Alachua company –  a large website rebuild

Started a website for Budding Biologist – a local company that creates science materials for children. This site will be a lot of fun. It’s been a long time since we’ve done anything related to children or learning.

We’re finishing up the Flour Pot Bakery’s website. Very nice design that we’re quite proud of.

Creating a web app for a food truck service – can’t spill the beans on our blog here but it’s going to be quite useful to a large target market. We’re building this app with a couple of associates over at PWH Tech.

TNT Graphics will be getting a new shirt designing software program. They just need our help installing and configuring a third party solution – we’d love the opportunity to build one of our own but the market is pretty saturated and we just don’t have that kind of time.

We have about a dozen other projects going on at this time – PHEW!, it’s been a busy, busy summer.

JSON and PHP

Here at Livewire, Gainesville Web Design headquarters, we have had a couple of projects recently that allowed us to work with JSON and PHP. Initially it may seem a bit strange for PHP experts to want to embed javascript functionality in their code base but the two work

Javascript called by PHP

Interesting little snippet. What is going on here? Livewire gives you the low down.    if($num_rowvs == 0){ echo ‘<script>// <![CDATA[ alert(“This is an alert message. I’m alerting you that you are totally awesome!”); // ]]></script>’; }   First, we’re creating a simple if statement in PHP.  Not entirely

The Low Down on Net Neutrality

What they heck is it? Most people don’t know it past the slogan .. and that’s what it is, a slogan. Net neutrality does not mean ‘left alone”, there’s nothing laissez faire about it. It does mean oversight, more oversight of the Internet than currently exists. The advocating

Content Marketing Mistakes That Derail Your SEO

Don’t fall into the trap of content which won’t rank on search engines to go along with your sites top-flight graphics. All the effort and money poured into your website is for nothing if you don’t rank on a search engine. These are some common mistakes that can

Netgear Routers Are Terrible

Why did we purchase this product for our office? What a mistake. Range on this router is about 4 feet before the signal drops off significantly. Speeds are sketchy and we experienced significant slowdown periods throughout the day. Connections lost – impromptu port disabling, you name it. If there
