We're hoping to make this
the last update to this version of the Squidz Ink website
as a new version is approaching readiness. It will include
a more thorough print/web/identity portfolio and more
frequent updates. Keep your eye on the ball.
Though '09
is starting off a bit shakey for the country overall,
we remain focused on achieving exciting new goals and
will be looking to work with organizations interested in
creative ways to move forward in the face of the storm.

EXCITING DEVELOPMENTS:
We have been working hard to complete our new website
content management system, ergoCMS™, in collaboration
with Wildrice Solutions. Our mission has been to separate
design from development and provide end users a comfortable,
powerful, easy to use site management tool. ergoCMS™
does just that. Once the system is deployed, your
dynamic, data-driven website can be designed and published
by any designer with HTML skills and a bit of ergoCMS™
training. Most content managment systems require a
developer familiar with the inner architecture of
the CMS to hard-code templates and other layout elements
into the CMS. ergoCMS™ allows the web designer to
fully control visual presentation without developer/programmer.
This separation of display from data offers complete
freedom in site design, reduces future redesign cost
by streamlining the process and removes the need for
the hard-coding skills of a programmer.
We'll be sure to update the
current portfolio and yes, hopefully this whole site
will finally redesigned and driven by the soon to be
announced version 1.0 of ergoCMS™. |
