Young Go Getter

Young Go Getter is an online community for helping entrepreneurs young at heart better their small businesses. When the site’s owners approached me about doing a re-design for them, their current site was mostly just a forum, with a few other sections, all patched together in a mess of iframes. It was a pain for them to maintain, and with an outdated design that only a mother could love.

In the course of a few short weeks, they sent me some design mockups that I transformed into a WordPress theme, and then integrated the new design into their existing Vanilla forum. Now they have a full-blown community site, where they can share and discuss whatever it is that young go-getters discuss in the company of other young go-getters.

See what they had to say about me.

Jen Gordon from Freelance Tipster wanted to create an online calculator so that freelancers such as herself can make sure that they are really charging what they are worth. She had a basic design mockup that I turned into a CSS/XHTML design, and then built the actual application using PHP and MySQL - I even through in a few swanky JavaScript effects using the script.aculo.us library.

If you are a freelancer, are you charging enough to cover all your expenses, and still have enough money left over to feed your iTunes habit? Find out now using the Freelance Tipster Hourly Rate Calculator.

Summer Ride Share

This summer Justin Shattuck had quite an adventure. He decided that he was going to give anyone in North America a ride to anywhere they wanted, and he would even pay half the gas. But what he needed first was a site where he could record everything that happened, and all the interesting people he met along the way.

Justin first presented me with a design concept that I turned into a WordPress theme. This included creating a custom WordPress plugin that he could use to track all the money he spent, and allow his site’s visitors to make a donation toward his expenses.

Justin had quite the experience doing all this, and he even liveblogged the whole thing on Justin.TV. His little experiment may not have attracted as many riders as he would have liked, but it was still fun to watch and be a part of.
