			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Final design for the <a title="Scituate Farmer's Market" href="http://scituatefarmersmarket.com" target="_blank">Scituate Farmer&#8217;s Market</a>. Their website includes a newsletter, real-time weather information, calendar listing rotating artisans appearing at the market, photo gallery of pictures from their flickr account and tweets from their Twitter account. </p>
<p>We still have some work to do adding vendor images and perhaps short bios, recipes and more. We&#8217;re sure the site will evolve as we use it this first year. We hope you find it informative and easy to use.</p>
<p>Be sure to stop by the market, open Wednesdays 3-7pm this summer in the North Scituate commuter rail parking lot &#8212; corner of Country Way &#038; Henry Turner Bailey Rd. Visit the <a title="Scituate Farmer's Market" href="http://scituatefarmersmarket.com" target="_blank">Scituate Farmer&#8217;s Market</a> for more information.</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s to a great season and an amazing group of people bringing fresh, local produce and artisan wares to Scituate :)</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>LifeKnot.com is a social networking site and side project of mine.</p>
<p>I created <a title="LifeKnot" href="http://www.lifeknot.com" target="_blank">LifeKnot</a> in 2003 as a cross between internet dating and social networking with the focus on finding people that share your interests. Some members use LifeKnot to find a significant other. Others use it to find a friend for hiking, biking, scuba or any of the 1,500 activities listed.</p>
<p>The site has gone through many revisions and could currently use another redesign. I&#8217;m listing it to show an example of a custom-built site and also share  some of my experience in running a site of this scale.</p>
<p>LifeKnot was developed using the PHP scripting language, MySQL database, prototype and scriptaculous javascript libraries (among others), custom CSS, and soon PayPal integration.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve created marketing collateral including everything from subway advertisements, vinyl banners and business cards to PDF literature, coffee mugs and stickers. Different print jobs require different files, formats and scale. I use Adobe&#8217;s suite of photo and publishing tools for such jobs.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve run Google AdWords and AdSense campaigns for LifeKnot, to both  advertise LifeKnot on other sites, atop search engine results and  generate revenue by running ads on LifeKnot. I also use Google Analytics, which according to Google is their &#8220;enterprise-class  web analytics solution that gives you rich         insights into your  website traffic and marketing effectiveness.&#8221;</p>
<p>Some complicated code underlies the site that compares interests (books, bands, movies, tv shows and myriad activities) of all members to show individuals those with whom they share the most in common. So if there isn&#8217;t a plug-in solution to a site I build for you I can code it for you from scratch.</p>

<p>We don’t believe you should have to spend money every time you want  to make a change to your website. For this reason we build websites that  utilize a content management system (CMS).</p>
<p>A CMS allows non-technical users to easily modify text, photos, and styling from a <em>dashboard</em>. We will even teach you the basics when we deliver your website.</p>
