Interviewed on CBC

December 21, 2006

gn_cbc_logo.gifSo, it looks like I’ll be interviewed on CBC’s On the Coast show, this afternoon at around 5:40 PST today, thanks to a referral from Kris.

I’ll be asked about Craigslist and what kind of scams you might run into on it, and so forth.  The topic is news-worthy, I suppose, because of the recent West Jet credits fraud that was perpetrated on Craigslist.

It sounds like the usual “standard human activity + Internet = News Story”, but I do think that having the chance to warn people about potential scam techniques is a good thing.  I’m going to dress real nice; I don’t want Priya Ramu to think I’m slovenly.

Hop Studios Makes it Gospel

December 1, 2006

Screenshot of The Gospel of FoodBarry Glassner, Author of the Bestseller the Culture of Fear, asked to Hop Studios to develop a web presence for his Non-fiction work The Gospel of Food. In this new book Barry turns a critical eye on eating, food culture, and it’s place in society. With the subtitle Everything You Think You Know About Food is Wrong we’re betting he’s uncovered at least a few incongruent ideas.

Barry wanted a clean site, but with a little extra spice thrown in! Hop Studios developed a splash page that included a interactive animated book and carried soft gradients throughout the site. The final result, barryglassner.com is easy to digest, and showcases the book nicely.
