MOBILE OPTIMIZATION AND YOU!

Because there aren’t enough minutes in the day to sift through poor websites, when you KNOW which are the best and fastest at delivering desired information. Welcome to the daily routine of your customers.

SIX WAYS TO TIGHTEN UP YOUR CODE

A colleague, Andrew Chernauskas, recently sent me a link to a blog post on InVision’s site, titled “6 Ways to Tighten Up Your Designs.” As a developer who leans heavily on GSATi’s very talented designers for anything design-related, I found this an extremely useful 5 minutes of my time.

THE IMPORTANCE OF REPLICATED WEBSITES

Most people in the direct sales channel understand how important a company’s website is. It is a company’s hub on the Internet, which also serves as someone's first impression of the company.

I decided to be a part of working for solutions, versus being a part of the problem by not getting involved. That service started first with the DCTA Citizen Advisory Team.
