De brandstof vergelijkingssite fftanken.nl is vernieuwd. Naast een paar opfrissingen in het uiterlijk is de site overgezet naar een eigen MVC framework in PHP op basis van enkele .NET beginselen, waardoor deze aanzienlijk is versneld. Ook is de nieuwe routeplanner online gegaan. Daarmee kun je direct de goedkoopste brandstofprijzen langs een bepaalde route berekenen.

New webshop shines a light | LED verlichting

• Project: LED·je·wel·nl
• Type: Web shop for LED products
• Address: http://www.ledjewel.nl
• Assignment: design & implementation
• Techniques: PHP & MySql based on a PrestaShop platform

LED·je·wel.nl is a new webshop which focusses on LED light, LED gadgets and LED accessories. I’ve used the PrestaShop platform for this, modifying it for its special needs. Every shop has its own demands, but PrestaShop generally satisfies most wishes. The object oriented PHP and MySql platform offers a fast solution for some solid marketing. It is in my strong belief that LED technology will be a major lighting provider in homes and public life within 15 years.

The Wings of Society

• Project: The Wings of Society
• Type: Supporting website and document library
• Address: http://www.thewingsofsociety.eu
• Assignment: design & implementation
• Techniques: ASP.NET / C#, MySql

The Educational Materials Project The Wings of Society provides schools with a new method for the subject of Technology. It consists of books that contain basic material, a website with flexible and easily adaptable material, and support activities.

This month I’ve released this website for Technicles, an organization which develops educational programs for technology students, aimed at ages of 12 – 15 years. The website’s main purpose is to act as a resource library, containing e-books, task sheets, glossaries and more. Each type of user (students, visitors and teachers) have access to different library sections to provide a custom tailored single point of access to every resource this methodology provides.

Woord van de dag: new and refreshed

• Project: Woord van de dag
• Type: Daily web log about the Dutch language
• Address: http://www.woordvandedag.nl
• Assignment: design & implementation
• Techniques: ASP.NET / C#, MySql

Woord van de dag (Word of the day) is a weblog-like website about the Dutch language. Everyday, a new exciting word is selected and visitors can vote for it, have discussions and view interesting statistics. A team of dedicated writers share their thoughts on language in general in the regular editorials.

Since the website has over 1500 unique visitors each day, it was time to give it a make-over to make it a bit more brighter, happier. It has to be a feel-good website for a happy start of the day. So brighter colors of blue and white were used, bigger fonts, more spacing and more images. And that all while reducing the actual page size for bandwidth purposes.

The new website has been constructed entirely in a custom made platform in C# (.NET) with a MySql database. Custom functionalities contain:

• Paypment provider implementations (iDeal / Mollie)
• Automated jury-driven word selection procedures
• Twitter.com integration
• iGoogle modules

Always wanted to be that funny man at the office with the instant rimshot ready for action after a colleague’s bad joke?

Yeah I’m one of them, I admit  But hey, I don’t see problems, I see challenges! And with every challenge comes a solution.

So here I present my newest product: HotKeyz! Just bind the CTRL-ALT-Numpad keys to any sound (wav, mp3) you wish and there ya go! Key combinations available from any application, anywhere in Windows.

The only prerequisite is .NET 2.0 of course, but for you fancy Vista users that shouldn’t be a problem!
