Barlesque - 30/10/2008
putITout has recently completed a white label
job for one of our larger clients creating xhtml pages using the
BBC's new barlesque
page layout system. It was our first experience with this new
layout paradigm and as ever with this kind of end client, attention
to detail was paramount. We're very happy with the finished result
and are very keen to flex our newly learned skills should the
need arise again.

Too much internet? - 18/06/2008
Do you find yourself rushing around the internet
to the same sites every day? With more resources being provided
through online portals this is an increasing problem. A company
called Accentivo
has created a technology to combat this problem by creating “agents”
to automate web processes and present these processes as XML feeds.
putITout can take these feeds and create bespoke applications
to make your business more efficient. A simple example to demonstrate
this feed is shown below:

Mashups - 13/05/2008
We have been doing a lot of research into mash-ups
recently. We are currently building a couple of demo applications
to show off the power of this technology. A mash up is the aggregation
of the information from 2 or more sites. One of our favourite
mashups compares google
and yahoo
search engines, showing what you miss by only using one search
engine. You can see the mashup in full effect by following this
link. There are plenty more examples of mashups at programmableweb.com,
have a look and see where it takes you. An exciting area, watch
this space.

Sharepoint - 17/04/2008
Following several recent requests, putITout
has taken the step to acquiring the services of a couple of excellent
Sharepoint developers. SharePoint
has proven very popular with large organisations who want a single,
integrated platform to manage intranet, extranet, and Internet
applications across their enterprise. One of the drivers behind
this platform is to boost business productivity by simplifying
access to organization-wide information.
Custom Build vs. Open Source CMS - 04/04/2008
Open Source vs Custom Build. It’s the
question on everyone’s lips. The last year has seen an increased
number of putITout’s clients insisting on us using an open
source solution for their projects. We can obviously code according
to any standard, but is this the right solution for our clients?
Is too much functionality sacrificed for ease of development?
putITout tackles this debate and helps you to understand what
points to consider when choosing which solution might be best
for you in our latest white paper. You can read it below.

Battlefield Microsoft - 04/04/2008
Reading about Microsoft is a hobby forced upon
all of us. Its sometimes hard to disseminate all this information
and the implications contained therein. There is a lovely diagrammatic
representation from 2006 where you can see what battles are being
won and lost. You can see that here.
Silver lining - 03/04/2008
With the global markets in decline and the journalists
shouting doom and gloom , pronouncing that we are heading into
a big recession (FT
- UK recession). Our industry continues to surge (The
new dotcom bom). Businesses have had time to prepare themselves
for the internet and now that access (via broadband) has increased
dramatically, so has demand. And who is needed to supply that
demand? Our developers of course!
H (Header) Tags - 22/03/2008
Header tags are tags designed to help with the
structure of HTML and allow for more symantic recognition of the
elements of a site. It has been the question of some debate whether
it is ever applicable to use more than one instance within a web
page. Following a decent amount of research into the matter the
best overview of the debate can be found on a thread within Linkedin
entitled "Any
downsides to using multiple H1 tags?". They are a topology
to be phased out with HTML 5.0 and is by and large a grammar point.
Although worth sharing.
Education - 15/08/2007
putITout's Edd Stockwell and Charlie Cadbury
were asked to speak at a careers event at the University of Westminster.
Following this talk they were invited back to give a 2 hour talk
on entrepreneuralism to the engineering faculty. You can see a

Community - 05/06/2007
putITout, whilst adding a CMS to their accountant's
website , suggests the addition of a "community" page.
This fits in very well with the ethos of the accountant's company
and is extra online exposure for their clients. Everybody's happy.
