Here's a sampling of some of the work we've done on the web. We've included
our two in-house flagship sites (OttawaStart.com and
OttawaGasPrices.com), as well as several client sites.
For information about web design, including design rates, please contact
us.
OttawaStart is updated every day with news, events, weather, and other
important info about Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. If you're looking for a
website in Ottawa, you'll find it with OttawaStart.
What people are saying:
"Fast, efficient, well-organized, comprehensive, VERY informative, getting
better every day. So good I stopped my newspaper subscription."
—Roy Wood, Ottawa
"I have recently been "turned on" to your "OttawaStart" and now use it
as my own start to every day. (In fact I probably finish there too.)"
—Elliott Edelstein, Ottawa
OttawaGasPrices.com is a realtime guide that helps consumers save money
when they fill up their cars. It includes the city's best and worst gas
prices, as well as news and links to gas price information.
What people are saying:
"Thank you so much for this service. I hope you keep it up even after
this current price explosion. It is about time consumers get a tool to
fight back."
—Donald, Ottawa
"This is a great idea, great service. I could never understand why people
would knowingly gas up at a station where the prices were higher than
the one down the road. Your site helps me find the best prices."
—Adrian, Ottawa
"You have saved me at least $10.00 in the last month with your notice
of price increases. By being able to fill up before the increase in Gatineau
I saved on every fill up in the last month. Keep up the good work"
—Guy Leclair, Gatineau
For this Web site, OttawaStart converts the paper version of Better Bicycling
into electronic form. Better Bicycling is the official publication of
the Citizens for Safe Cycling, a local cycling advocacy group.
OttawaCarPool.ca
This site helps people in Ottawa and Eastern Ontario find a carpool partner.
Anyone can post a "ride offer" or a "ride wanted".
The site has connected dozens of local commuters, and helped them to set
up a carpool.
What people are saying:
"I think this site is a great idea. Serves to reduce traffic, emissions
and increases the mobility of many people who don't/can't drive. Keep
up the great work!"
— Patrick Quealey

The premise behind Obsessive Fan Sites is that it's not junk mail or hackers
that are slowing down the internet, it's the thousands of fans who visit
their favorite celebrity site to download pictures, sounds, and other
junk.
What they're saying:
"A deeply creepy links page to inexplicable acts of adulation, replete
with hasbeens and who-the-hells, from Tori Amos worshippers to those who
still love New Kids on the Block. A good way to put your own time-wasting
into perspective: Sure, you're looking at it, but somebody took a lot
longer to actually build the thing."
—Shift Magazine
Obsessive Fan Sites was a Yahoo!
Pick of the Year in 1998.
Diefenbaker Web offers pictures and stories about Canada's most charismatic
leader, John Diefenbaker. This website started out as a bit of a joke,
but is now a popular resource for history buffs, students, and researchers
alike.
What people are saying:
"This is a great page - very interesting. Diefenbaker was a good friend
of my great-grandfather J.V. Finley - but that's about all I really knew
about this former PM. I'm glad you've set up this web page so I can learn
more."
—Allison White, Ottawa
"Just a short note to congratulate you on your great web site. The Chief
would be proud!"
—John Baird, Ontario MPP
