It will be a free application that allows users to do some pre-shopping. Ever wondered if shopping in bulk is actually a better deal or are you spending more money? We never really thought about it until we started crunching some numbers and came up with some stunning results. For example, did you know some stores charge you more per can of soda than a vending machine does? Feel free to contact us with questions or more details.</p> Thu, 07 Aug 2008 18:52:00 -0400 urn:uuid:92f5c334-4407-4331-9246-bc138d4559f9 http://cleverstart.com/2008/08/07/we-are-changing-the-world-1-at-a-time#comments Portfolio online grocery savings saving money greensboro preshopping http://cleverstart.com/2008/08/07/we-are-changing-the-world-1-at-a-time Ten Ton Technologies (web design/development) <p><img align="left" width="300" alt="" src="http://cleverstart.com/files/tenton.png" />Ten Ton Technologies was looking for something that would stand out and look professional.

This CMS uses Typo, which is a popular blogging platform, as a baseline for the project.</p> Thu, 07 Aug 2008 18:48:00 -0400 urn:uuid:27d5ba10-4006-43da-91e7-18aa6bd7de63 http://cleverstart.com/2008/08/07/gefen-productions-full-rails-cms-and-custom-development-design#comments Portfolio cleverstart portfolio web design greensboro hosting ruby on rails development typo blog http://cleverstart.com/2008/08/07/gefen-productions-full-rails-cms-and-custom-development-design Eve Haslam (idea for future development) <p><img height="206" align="left" width="300" alt="CleverStart portfolio, web desing, development, north carolina" src="http://cleverstart.com/files/EveHaslam.png" />Sometimes all you need is an idea for a project. For this project we were hired to create a new design that was fresh and modern looking. This is what the client ended up liking a lot and it was our favorite too!</p> Thu, 07 Aug 2008 18:47:00 -0400 urn:uuid:74607c36-27bb-47c6-980c-e3752e0914f7 http://cleverstart.com/2008/08/07/eve-haslam-idea-for-future-development#comments Portfolio cleverstart portfolio web design north carolina hosting ruby on rails development concept http://cleverstart.com/2008/08/07/eve-haslam-idea-for-future-development Umalt.com (Non-profit site and blog) <p><img height="206" border="1" align="left" width="300" src="http://cleverstart.com/files/umalt.gif" alt="cleverstart portfolio work umalt.com" />This project was a lot of fun, we used some PHP and a lot of CSS to get our client the desired look and feel that we were aiming for. Since completion they have been attracting many new visitors and helping out their existing users. Umatilla Morrow Alternatives dedicates long hours and lots of resources to the local community, and to help out with this, their guests are able to book events and needs. We still do maintenance and upkeep so that UMA is able to focus their time on what their good at, helping others and making a difference.</p> <p>The CEO of Umalt had good things to say about the finished product:</p> <p>&quot;I have enjoyed working with James on building our first website, not only were they very responsive but they tried to see things from my point of view which is helpful. We love the way the site looks, they were patient in working with me even though I know I was very confusing, they helped us to realize our goal.&quot; -Frank</p> Thu, 07 Aug 2008 18:38:00 -0400 urn:uuid:3e8bd0cc-a359-4e08-a814-32b290b92349 http://cleverstart.com/2008/08/07/umalt-com-non-profit-site-and-blog#comments Portfolio cleverstart portfolio web design greensboro http://cleverstart.com/2008/08/07/umalt-com-non-profit-site-and-blog GatewayURP.com (UNCG/A&T Research park) <p><img height="203" border="1" align="left" width="300" alt="" src="http://cleverstart.com/files/UNCG.gif" />This project was an enjoyable challenge. Using a lot of CSS, we were able to increase the performance of the website and ensure that pages were being loaded quickly. This was due to the high amount of traffic that the site recieves. Originally the background consisted of more than twenty-five images, using modern digital imaging we were able to reduce this considerably.</p> Thu, 07 Aug 2008 18:35:00 -0400 urn:uuid:b5769e64-2c20-4737-9872-b09fc35edc15 http://cleverstart.com/2008/08/07/gatewayurp-com-uncg-a-t-research-park#comments Portfolio north carolina cleverstart portfolio work web design http://cleverstart.com/2008/08/07/gatewayurp-com-uncg-a-t-research-park
