Taking it Local: Unattended Launches Shop208Beta.com

April 26th, 2009

When we aren’t doing client work, we are dreaming up grand new ideas to improve the web. The latest is Shop208, a local social network for the state of Idaho (i.e. the 208 area code), but it will mostly start in Boise, since that is where we are based.

Shop 208 | Social Networking for Idaho

In the past few months we have completed most of the systems architecture, purchased servers, and written a lot of code! So, I am proud to say that we can actually announce it to the public! Though we have not yet invited users to our private beta, we expect that to happen soon, so stay tuned!

Until the actuall app launches we have built a beautiful landing page where you can learn a little bit about it, as well as signup for our email updates. But the best thing is that the site uses an innovative CSS technique to create a parallax (think old video games) effect. To see it go to Shop208Beta.com and resize your browser (drag the corner handle) and it will give you a 3D effect.

Looking forward to hearing what you all think of this concept!
