Calgary Folk Fest Home Page

SA is extremely pleased to be working with our Folk Fest friends this year! The new mobile site is designed to add to the festival experience by making artists bios, schedules, and maps available for quick and easy access – on any smart phone. Primary targets are the iPhone, Blackberry and Android devices – with support for most new mobile browsers. The key feature is the new ‘MyFolkFest’ personalized calendar – add shows with a simple click! - to ensure no one misses any of the over 200 shows they could attend. The mobile site also displays all Folk Fest related Twitter feeds to easily track all of the relevant Tweets and updates. The SA team will be attending most days – and we can’t wait!  m.calgaryfolkfest.com

SA is extremely proud to launch DeliverGood - a new online business dedicated to matching charities with 'needs' to private individuals who want to contribute. Basically a dream project for SA, as we get to create an altruistic online business from the ground up - utilizing our SWIM content management system. The site features an amazing Ian Russell design, an innovative Search/Match function, and an extremely easy to use CMS to allow non-techncial charity organizations and individuals to manage theor own content - with no training required! Phase I launches May 14th with the cross country 'Got Ginch' tour, and new features are already planned for the next six months. www.delivergood.org

The HPR is Calgary's International Festival of the Arts that illuminates our city every January. SA created an online home to match the energy and excitement of the festival, with some innovative touches to mirror Micheal Green's curation. The site will be key to festival communications, displaying the lineup, interactive event calendar and ticket buying links. As January gets closer, look for Curator videos, blogs and commenting, community building features. Keep checking back as we get closer to the January Rodeo Season. www.hprodeo.ca

Birth and Babies Online
The Perinatal Education Division of Alberta Health Services approached SA to help launch this online education project. Based on the Birth & Babies class, the site provides informative content, self quizzes, FAQ's and interactive modules for Mom's to be. The site features an easy to use content management system, and provides extensive reporting, so the AHS can monitor class effectiveness and update regularily. And having two of our SA team recently attend the class makes the project extra special! http://online.birthandbabies.com
GreatWest Newspapers
SA is contracted to create the web design for GreatWest Newspaper’s stable of 16 regional papers. The Red Deer Express site (pictured) launched in September 2009, and will be the ‘model’ for the rest of GWN’s regional newspaper websites.
