HELLO.
You've reached the website of +GOOD. Purveyors of the finest ideas and diversions. May we take your coat?
THERE.
All safe and sound in the box-room. Now, if you'll just step this way, we'll explain the features of our new site. It can be disconcerting at first, but we hope you'll have fun.
WELCOME.
Contact details and a link to the flash version of this site are just up top. But we doubt you're after those right now. We reckon you'd rather catch-up with what's been happening our end first right?
WAIT.
Have we even met before? Your face does seem familiar, bit now we're not so sure.
BAD?
Let us think. Well, we can't be everywhere at once. That's pretty terrible when you think about it.
NEWS.
Right then. Time for the good news.
NEWEST.
A new interaction for those who enjoy Twitter. And, erm, fridge magnets.
Behold the awesome bodacity that is www.twittermagnets.com! The world's first utterly pointless, yet thoroughly compelling fridge-magnet/Twitter mash-up. The devil makes work for idle hands, and so, in our five minutes of free time, we threw together this compelling piece of flash in the vain hope that it will bring good cheer and mirth to all.
NEWER.
Well bugger us, we've only gone and won an award.
Hah! Not to sound boastful, but it didn't take long for the awards to start rolling in. And an FWA too - one of the industry's most prestigious awards. It was for this very site in case you're wondering. Nice to know someone out there likes what we do!
NEW.
Can you tell what it is yet? Yes! A new site for children's illustrator, Adam Clay.
We remember when we were kids. All this was just fields and the internet was a mere twinkle in Al Gore's eye. Oh! The giddy times we had. So let us now revisit those halcyon days via the medium of our new website for Adam Clay at www.adamclay.co.uk. It's more jam-packed than a Jammie Dodger with rich, syrupy goodness in the form of cutesy vector art and a unique navigation system.
DONE.
Well that was newsworthy and good. Shall we shepherd you merrily onward to the bad news next?
YES.
We knew you'd been here before. We won't bore you with another introduction then. Nope! We'll just show you right on through to the examples of our work. OK?
US.
This is us. Sweet geeky ol' us. We make the things that make you go 'ooh' online. And you know what? We don't half love what we do.
We'd give you more of a hard-sell, but that's not really our style. We'd much prefer our handiwork do all the talking. Fancy a listen?
SSSH!
Feel free to roll over the elements. They don't bite. They have no teeth you see, so they couldn't even if they wanted to.
(In the flash site, these are read out y'see...)
Subtle Gradient
Oh hi! I'm a subtle gradient. We're all the rage right now. We're 2.0 dontcha know. Make sure to hire +GOOD and they'll keep you bang on trend. Uh-huh.
Consistent Margin
Hey there, I'm a consistent margin. And I'm here to make sure that you know that when you hire +GOOD it'll all go straight to plan.
Finishing Touch
Hi. I'm a flashy finishing touch. You'll find lots of us all over a +GOOD website, they're good like that really.
RIGHT.
And how about a run-down of the services we provide?
FINE.
And how about a nice run down of how we would approach your website?
MY.
Difficult to please aren't you? Tell us again, did you see the news in the end?
METHOD.
We think you'll find that this diagram expains our methodolgy quite clearly.
NEXT.
Presumably at this point, you'll be wanting a goosy gander at some of the sites we've built recently, eh?
SERVICES.
You could say we're the original try-sexuals. We'll try anything once. Though if we're honest, our favourite jobs are a heady mix of any number of these things.
WORK.
Sadly, life's not all lemonade and hammocks. Everyone has to do some work eventually. Even us.
Difference is, 'course, that we make it look +GOOD. Here, let's show you what we've done.
FIG 1.
Marvel at the ingenuity inherent in this, the world's first fridge-magnet/Twitter mash-up.
Why so serious? Isn't that what the crazy man said? Well, we took that to heart here at +GOOD, and crafted this utterly ridiculous piece of internet tom-foolery. Users drag and drop fridge-magnets into a central dropzone to create a slice of beatific poetry that is theirs to keep and treasure forever via either their, or our, respective Twitter accounts. The site was made with Flash, and utilises PHP to interface with Twitter.com.
FIG 2.
Matheus Guimares is a singer-songwriter who was looking for a simple, yet sparky site that would help spread the word about his fantastic music.
The site is built in Flash and powered by XML, with data being loaded into the site for ease of use and updating. Users can preview audio tracks from the artist, or simply browse through a gallery of images from his performances.
FIG 3.
Wheeeeee! It's all the fun of the fair on our topsy-turvy extravaganza for children's illustrator Adam Clay.
There's lurching and spinning and all manner of giddy movement on our flash-based site for this talented illustrator. Powered by XML, the site is swift and easy to update, and awfully good fun to have a rummage around as well. Get over there and get dizzy! We double dare you!
BEAUTIFUL.
Wasn't it just? And all down to the hard graft of members of this very boutique. You know, you really should hire us! Have you seen a list of what we can do for you?
SHAME.
There was some really nice work in there. Ah well. It's a trip to the kitten parade for you then Sonny Jim!
FEISTY!
In that case, you must be itching to get in touch with us. Isn't that the case?
CONTACT.
Here's a form. Send us a message, ask us a question or tell us a joke. It's entirely up to you.
STUMPED.
That's what we are. We have no idea what else we can show you. Unless you're game for a spot of the old e-tennis?
TENNIS.
Oh! Hello. We weren't expecting guests.
Erm. Well, you can't actually play tennis here today. We don't have the means. You'll have to go to the flash site for that. Now gerroff my land! Off with ya! Go on!
KITTENS!
Satisfied now? Wouldn't you much rather have seen our work?
OVER.
That's all folks. Move along please. Nothing to see here. Why don't we just show you straight to the door. Thanks. Don't forget to collect all your personal belongings. And see you again soon!
