Creative Process, Liverpool

Creative Process, Liverpool

We sponsor and support Creative Process, a small, but friendly and fun evening occasional mini-conference that’s held at Elevator Bar in Liverpool. The great and the good of the Liverpool web and creative industry were out in force at last night’s event.

Designival 2012

Designival 2012

When it was first announced Designival seemed a little underwhelming but that was largely due to the time between the announcement and when the speakers and programme of events were announced. I’ll admit even then I had never heard of Sara de Bondt, James Jarvis or Simon Manchipp before but it’s far more interesting to be surprised by someone new… continue reading

TBI Vision Goes Live

TBI Vision Goes Live

We’re proud to announce that TBI Vision, the industry magazine for the TV business has just relaunched using WordPress and interconnect/it’s section based enhancements.  The design has a deceptively simple look and feel that, once you explore some more, reveals a great deal of custom functionality. As the client gets used to working with the platform and system we expect… continue reading

Google shuts down their weather API

Google shuts down their weather API

If you’ve been using our weather widget plugin you will have noticed by now it no longer works. The reason is Google quietly retired their weather API that we were relying on for the data. As a result we’re putting the plugin on hiatus until we have some time to find and implement a reliable API that won’t cause you… continue reading

Implementing The EU Cookie Law

Implementing The EU Cookie Law

You may have noticed a lot of fuss being talked, of late, about the EU Cookie Law. And it’s just termed that, and in the UK everyone’s referred only to the ICO guidance on the matter. You may also have noticed that here at interconnect/it we’ve been, shall we say, quiet about it.  That has a lot to do with… continue reading

The Auditor, Closed Beta 2

The Auditor, Closed Beta 2

Following on from our initial announcement, I’m happy to announce we have a new version! We’ve listened to feedback and made many improvements. We’re also making expanding the closed beta! One of the points mentioned in feedback was the potential for extending the plugin, examples including Google Analytics traffic widgets on the overview page etc. The second iteration now comes with… continue reading

The Auditor Enters Closed Beta

The Auditor Enters Closed Beta

The Auditor (name to be finalised) is a plugin that comes in two parts – an event logger that tracks key options and content changes within your WP install, and a viewer that lets you view what’s been happening on your site.

BigSWIG, Big Thanks, Big News

BigSWIG, Big Thanks, Big News

BigSWIG wasn’t a big idea we had one night, but simply an evolution of our usual SWIG events. A bigger venue, beer on-tap, a PA system, a big screen, and four awesome speakers! No, not loudspeakers, but actual people, talking about all things web, WordPress and design related. In the end there were very nearly 40 people at our first… continue reading

Designing The Plaza

Designing The Plaza

You may have heard by now that we recently launched a new website for the Plaza Community Cinema in Waterloo near Liverpool. We try to fit one charity project in a year at interconnect/it to give ourselves a challenge that wouldn’t normally come up. I should come clean that part of the reason for doing this project is that we were… continue reading
