Working with our partner company Stowe Consulting, we've just completed work on the new home for G2 Microsystems Inc. They're an Austrailian-based manufacturer of ultra low-power wifi chipsets. We used a persistent site map navigation style in the footer of the sub pages which is a bit different than you're likely to find elsewhere.. This was done in part for simplicity, and in part to offer an alternative to the Flash-based primary navigation scheme.

Enjoy!

 

PhlooQ: Widget Winner

After weighing in all of the pros and cons, a finalist has been selected. The PhlooQ team and the web community really gravitated towards the open, approachable look and feel of the widget above. Everyone found the "maybe state" a welcomed addition and also emphasized a strong desire for natural looking hands in lieu digital versions. We're happy with the overall direction.

Next on the agenda, redesigning the website.

One of our favorite news sources - the AOL-owned The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW) got a fresh coat of pixels today and is looking a lot more sleek.

A few points of interest include the top story representation at the top, better videos and a more up-to-date look and feel. They put up a brief post about the re-design, and we've got a shot of the last old look and feel posted after the break if you feel like being nostalgic.
