	      <title>TravelSharkPix Launches Photo Sharing For Trips</title>
	      <description>&lt;p&gt;
&lt;img src="http://pix.travelshark.com/images/travelsharklogo.png" align="right" width="311" height="47" alt="TravelSharkPix"/&gt;We are proud to have worked on the latest TravelShark &lt;a href="http://www.travelshark.com/news/TravelShark-Launches-People-powered-Hunt-to-Find-Charity-Partners-for-New-Photo-sharing-App-TravelSharkPix/50"&gt;launch&lt;/a&gt; - &lt;a href="http://pix.travelshark.com/"&gt;TravelSharkPix&lt;/A&gt;.  TravelSharkPix is a service designed to allow travelers, vacationers and Jetsetters a way to share photos of their favorite places and destinations.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
There are many cool features to discuss with TravelSharkPix from uploading photos, sharing the destinations, sharing on social networks, and the chance to have your photo featured on these top travel sites (&lt;a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://www.lasvegashotels.com/"&gt;LasVegasHotels.com&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://www.singaporehotels.com/"&gt;SingaporeHotels.com&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://www.hotellondon.com/"&gt;HotelLondon.com&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://www.vancouverhotels.com/"&gt;VancouverHotels.com&lt;/a&gt;, and more.  But one of my favorite features is that you can raise money for charity every time you submit a photo.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
TravelShark said they will donate between $0.10 and $0.25 for every photo accepted into the TravelSharkPix database.  Where will all this money go?  That is up to you!  TravelShark is running a &lt;a href="http://pix.travelshark.com/charity-hunt"&gt;charity hunt&lt;/a&gt; asking users to submit suggestions for charities.  To learn more about that, see &lt;A href="http://pix.travelshark.com/charity-hunt-about"&gt;details on selecting charities&lt;/a&gt;.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Finally, check out this awesome video they made to help promote this launch:

	      <title>A Geekier Way To Manage Playdates</title>
	      <description>&lt;p&gt;
Have kids? Then you know how managing your children's playdates can become a true hassle.  Between figuring out which of your children's friends your kids want to play with, the location, the timing, risks (such as pools, allergies, etc) and then multiply it by the number of children you have - it can become stressful.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Then you set up several playdates and you have to remember which kids go where, when!  It can be a full time job.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
There is an easier way, a more efficient way - a "geekier" way as we at RustyBrick like to call it.  It is the &lt;a href="http://www.playdateplanet.com/"&gt;Playdate Planet&lt;/a&gt; way!
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
We designed and developed this site for parents by parents to help them manage the day to day hassle of playdate scheduling.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
We made it social, integrated and easy to use.  All you need to do is go online and invite your child's friend(s) to attend a playdate of your design.  The system will do the rest, from reminders, friend invite notifications, and even manage the risks of allergies, animals, pools, and so on.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;

	      <title>Sharky Awards : For The Sharkiest People, Places &amp; Things</title>
	      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src="http://files.rustybrick.com/rustybrick/30678/sharky-awards.png" align="right" height="200" width="196" alt="Sharky Awards logo" /&gt;Today, we helped launch the &lt;a href="http://sharkyawards.travelshark.com/"&gt;Sharky Awards&lt;/a&gt; for the world's largest online travel network, &lt;a href="http://www.travelshark.com/"&gt;Travel Shark&lt;/a&gt;.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
As the &lt;a href="http://www.travelshark.com/news/TravelShark-Introduces-the-Sharky-Awards-Names-First-Winners/43"&gt;press release&lt;/a&gt; states, the awards are "designed to recognize the freshest, most unique travel experiences across the globe."  They are awarded for &lt;a href="http://sharkyawards.travelshark.com/winners/people"&gt;people&lt;/A&gt;, &lt;a href="http://sharkyawards.travelshark.com/winners/places"&gt;places&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://sharkyawards.travelshark.com/winners/things"&gt;things&lt;/a&gt;:
&lt;ul&gt;&lt;strong&gt;People&lt;/strong&gt;: People who win a Sharky Award perform an amazing service for travelers. We raise a fin to the people who make us emote at the heart embellished in our latte foam, who make Atlas look like a slacker, who act as our guide on a life-changing experience, and who make us seriously consider leaving our lives behind to become permanent tourists.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Places&lt;/strong&gt;: Sharky places are bold, funky, and more than a little off-beat. Sure, you can recommend these spots to your mother if your mother' writes avant-garde haiku and teaches hula dancing in her spare time. The Sharky Awards drop a pin on the must-see destinations that turn a trip into an odyssey. If you know what we mean.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Things&lt;/strong&gt;: If you whip out your camera phone while on vacation--and you're not taking a picture of your kids or your third-degree sunburn you may have spotted a Shark! Sharky things make travelers stop in their tracks, pinch themselves, and possibly cry tiny tears of joy. Sharky Awards give a shout-out to the little things that turn an ordinary trip into a life-changing revelation. Or at least a pretty good story for your next Toastmasters meeting.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Feel free to &lt;a href="http://sharkyawards.travelshark.com/nominate.php"&gt;nominate&lt;/a&gt; a person, thing or place for the award and see the &lt;a href="http://sharkyawards.travelshark.com/winners/"&gt;winners over here&lt;/a&gt;.

	      <title>Ambit Electronics Brings Dead Stock Alive With New Web Site</title>
	      <description>&lt;p&gt;
&lt;a href="http://www.ambitelectronics.com/"&gt;Ambit Electronics&lt;/a&gt; hired RustyBrick to overhaul the web site in order to convey the true essence and culture of the 30 plus year old company.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The new design features high-end graphics, easy to understand navigation and much more.  We worked closely with &lt;a href="http://www.ambitelectronics.com/ambit-team"&gt;Ambit's team&lt;/a&gt; to bring out the company's personality in the new design.  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
From their new logo and web site design to a custom built content management system and lead capture forms - the site has been completely revamped.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Don't get me wrong, Ambit is still the same great company helping large companies with "dead stock" and surplus electronics, sell off those assets for a pretty good penny.  But the web site now helps convey the greatness of the company to the public.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;About Ambit:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Since 1979, Ambit Electronics has helped OEM's, CEM's, component manufacturers and distributors discreetly sell their surplus components. Ambit also assists companies seeking to purchase quality components. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
For more information on Ambit Electronics, see their web site at &lt;A href="http://www.ambitelectronics.com/"&gt;www.ambitelectronics.com&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;hr&gt;Source: &lt;a href=""&gt;Ambit Electronics Brings Dead Stock Alive With New Web Site&lt;/a&gt; at &lt;a href="http://www.rustybrick.com/"&gt;RustyBrick&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/RustyBrickWebNews/~4/zSIhqm7mP_s" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description>

	      <title>Complete Revamp Of Search News &amp; Tips Site</title>
	      <description>&lt;p&gt;
The &lt;A href="http://www.seroundtable.com/"&gt;Search Engine Roundtable&lt;/a&gt; is a site operated by &lt;a href="http://www.rustybrick.com/barry"&gt;Barry Schwartz&lt;/a&gt;, the President of RustyBrick.  He has run the site for over seven years now and has finally decided to revamp the site from the bottom up.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The Search Engine Roundtable's new look breaks itself away from the standard blog look and now looks more like an official news or magazine web site.  It includes an improved design for navigation and browsing older stories.  It shows a quick snap shot of the top stories for the day.  The new improved interface for commenting and sharing stories makes it easier for readers to interact on the site.  The video content and picture content is quicker to interact with.  Finally, the design supports a very cool and fun theme system that lets us set different holiday themes to give the design a fresh look on special days.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
On the development front, we moved off a standard blog content management system (CMS) and are now utilizing a custom RustyBrick  CMS.   The core reason for moving is flexibility and security.  In the past, there were limitations on what features can be added to the site, now there are no restrictions.  We've added tons of features and many more are to come, both on the front end user interface and on the backend CMS components. These include:
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Better category system, authors sections and date archives&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Weekly video now automatically pulled from YouTube without manual intervention&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Daily photo of the day manager&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Holiday theme scheduler system&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Improved commenting controls&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Advanced RSS &amp; XML Sitemap management for stories&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;and more...&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;

	      <title>Improving Emergency Room Doctor Scheduling By 70%</title>
	      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4109/5083672106_6a15c64e7a_m.jpg" align="right" border="0" hspace="3" width="240" height="115" alt="EMA Logo" /&gt;Emergency Medical Associates (&lt;a href="http://www.ema.net/"&gt;EMA.net&lt;/a&gt;), a really long time client of ours, has released a &lt;a href="http://www.ema.net/web_scheduler_release"&gt;press statement&lt;/a&gt;  stating that their Emergency Department scheduling software has helped them increase scheduling efficiencies by 70%.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Dennis Cochrane MD, FACEP, noted researcher, technology innovator and EMA partner, said "The development of our ED-specific web-based scheduling system has been the culmination of many years working with EMA physicians and technology specialists to design a niche scheduling system which meets the unique demands of both academic and non-academic emergency departments."
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Those "technology specialists" are the folks here at RustyBrick.  We have been working with the EMA physicians and staff over the past several years, developing easy to use but sophisticated web based scheduling software and mobile based ED scheduling software for their physicians, assistants and office staff.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Doctor Cochrane says it best:
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;Our system is entirely browser-based and enables all of our ED physicians and providers to make requests, swap shifts, adjust their hours-worked and do schedule-making from anywhere in the world.  Physicians can also use their mobile device (iPhone, Blackberry or Droid) to adjust their hours, directly view current schedules and to directly contact other physicians with a few clicks.&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
One of the Emergency Rooms EMA operates was asked how much of an impact this software has on the doctors.   Michael Bessette, MD, FACEP, Chairman, Department of Emergency Medicine, Jersey City Medical Center, Jersey City, NJ said, "The EMA scheduling program has reduced our scheduling time by 70% and my physicians love the ease of making their own switches either on their computers or mobile devices."
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Seeing numbers like that enables us at RustyBrick to see beyond just making cool, useful, easy and fast software.  It shows us the impact our lines and lines of code and pixels and pixels of design make in the lives of those helping to keep America happy and healthy.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;

	      <title>Jennifer Convertibles Gets Fresh Start With New Web Site</title>
	      <description>&lt;p&gt;
After three and a half &lt;a href="http://www.rustybrick.com/Jennifer-Convertibles-Web-Site-Redesigned-with-Promo--Media-Integration-101.html"&gt;years&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://www.jenniferfurniture.com/"&gt;Jennifer Convertibles&lt;/a&gt; has completely revamped their web image with a brand new and fresh online look.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The new web site's colors are bold, fresh and elegant, showcasing some of the finest sofa beds and leather furniture on the market.  The web site has an expanded &lt;A href="http://products.jenniferfurniture.com/"&gt;furniture collection&lt;/a&gt;, an easy to use &lt;a href="http://circular.jenniferfurniture.com/"&gt;furniture promotions&lt;/a&gt; section and a quick &lt;A href="http://www.jenniferfurniture.com/finder.php3"&gt;showroom finder&lt;/A&gt;.  
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Behind the scenes, the web site has a custom built &lt;a href="http://www.rustybrick.com/services_content_management.php"&gt;content management system&lt;/A&gt;, enabling Jennifer Convertibles marketing team to make constant updates and upgrades to the site without constant communication with the developers.  The &lt;A href="http://www.rustybrick.com/services_design.php"&gt;web design&lt;/a&gt; was hand crafted to fit Jennifer Convertibles new outlook to the future.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
"The design inspiration for Jennifer Convertibles emerged from their glamour photography," said Mabelyn Arteaga, RustyBrick's Creative Director. Arteaga added, "The images they gave us to work with showed furniture that was contemporary and sleek and I wanted to push the brand out a little out of the original site's beige boring feel and into a more fashionable, dynamic arena. Their furniture is very hip and they really needed a site to reflect that. The dark colors and lines are strong and sophisticated and I think that is something that also embodies their products."
&lt;/p&gt;

	      <title>DietTV - Online Diet Portal &amp; Diet Tools</title>
	      <description>&lt;p&gt;We are proud to have developed the redesigned and completely revamped backend DietTV.com web site.   DietTV helps users browse diet plans and help them stick with those plans.  The various tools, features and customizable profiles and food databases enable users to see their dieting goals as they work through a program.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The site features hundreds of features, so I asked the main developer, Steve, to summarize some of his personal favorite features:
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Registered users can pick from over 80 diets.  Users can search for diets by name or by use with the intuitive &lt;a href="http://www.diettv.com/diet_list.php"&gt;diet finder tool&lt;/a&gt; to find a diet that uniquely fits their diet needs.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Users are guided through a diet's phase and notified, once a goal has been achieved, to move onto the next phase. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Besides basic profile information such as height &amp; weight, users can customize their profile and experience by setting their general activity level and per-day caloric intake.  DietTV will always recommend a daily-caloric intake based on a user's data.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Users can track their daily weight via the web site and visually see progress via interactive charts.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Users can track what they ate via DietTV's extensive food database. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;The food tracker displays a users calorie &amp; nutritional intake in both a table &amp; interactive chart.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Users can track their daily exercise with their exercise history again being displayed in both table and chart format.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;An animated BMI chart on a user's dashboard will always display her starting, current &amp; goal BMI values.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;The comprehensive Eating Guide allows a user to find foods they can eat based on their dietary requirements.  The Guide is organized based on several food categories, which include snacks, brand food, fruit &amp; vegetables and popular restaurant food.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;DietTV provides a comprehensive, diet-friendly recipe database with each recipe providing specific instructions as well as a detailed nutritional breakdown.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Users can save favorites in many categories including foods, exercise and recipes.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;

	      <title>Yad Eliezer Remastered Online With New Site &amp; Backend Solution</title>
	      <description>&lt;p&gt;RustyBrick is proud to have been given the opportunity to not just revamp the &lt;a href="http://www.yadeliezer.org/"&gt;Yad Eliezer web site&lt;/a&gt;, but help streamline their back office capabilities through web technologies.  
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Yad Eliezer's new design is a complete overhaul of the old design.  The prime focus on the new web site is to convey how the non-profit organization makes a difference in the lives of so many people who live in Israel.  The core focus is to help poor families in Israel live a normal life.  By breaking down their &lt;a href="http://www.yadeliezer.org/program_info.php"&gt;various charitable programs&lt;/a&gt;, and making it easy, simple and even enjoyable for donors to give money or their time, we hope to help the very important organization raise capital in the future.  As you can tell, conversion is key.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Some of the important programs Yad Eliezer offers includes:
&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.yadeliezer.org/program_info.php?program_id=1"&gt;Food Boxes to Israelis&lt;/a&gt; to feed poor families&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;A href="http://www.yadeliezer.org/program_info.php?program_id=2"&gt;Feeding Babies in Israel&lt;/a&gt; who are malnourished&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.yadeliezer.org/program_info.php?program_id=19"&gt;Israel's Meals on Wheels&lt;/a&gt; to feed the homebound&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;A href="http://www.yadeliezer.org/program_info.php?program_id=5"&gt;Shabbat Kitchen&lt;/a&gt; program&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;A href="http://www.yadeliezer.org/program_info.php?program_id=17"&gt;Furniture &amp; Appliances for Israelis&lt;/a&gt; in need&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;A href="http://www.yadeliezer.org/program_info.php?program_id=6"&gt;Israeli Big Brother &amp; Sister&lt;/a&gt; programs&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Supporting &lt;a href="http://www.yadeliezer.org/program_info.php?program_id=7"&gt;Widow &amp; Orphans in Israel&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Medical programs such as &lt;A href="http://www.yadeliezer.org/program_info.php?program_id=9"&gt;emergency medical funds&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://www.yadeliezer.org/program_info.php?program_id=21"&gt;Israel dental clinics&lt;/a&gt; and many more&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Celebration programs for &lt;a href="http://www.yadeliezer.org/program_info.php?program_id=10"&gt;Israeli Weddings&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://www.yadeliezer.org/program_info.php?program_id=11"&gt;Kol Kallah Bridal Fund&lt;/A&gt;, &lt;a href="http://www.yadeliezer.org/program_info.php?program_id=12"&gt;sponsoring Bar Mitzvahs&lt;/a&gt; or &lt;a href="http://www.yadeliezer.org/program_info.php?program_id=13"&gt;Jewish Holiday Funds&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;
You can see how these programs helped thousands of families in Israel by viewing the &lt;a href="http://www.yadeliezer.org/multimedia.php"&gt;Yad Eliezer Multimedia&lt;/a&gt; section or &lt;a href="http://www.yadeliezer.org/blog.php"&gt;Blog&lt;/a&gt;.  Plus, you can learn how to &lt;a href="http://www.yadeliezer.org/volunteer"&gt;volunteer your time&lt;/a&gt; to such an important cause.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
In addition to all the front end features you see here.  We have helped Yad Eliezer streamline their back office processes by creating a easy to use content management solution, robust billing and donor system, and so much more.  Make sure to check out the new Yad Eliezer site today at &lt;a href="http://www.yadeliezer.org/"&gt;www.yadeliezer.org/&lt;/a&gt;.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
About Yad Eliezer:
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Yad Eliezer is Israel's Largest Poverty Relief Agency. Yad Eliezer began in 1980 in the kitchen of the Weisel family of Jerusalem. They prepared a food basket for a neighbor who could not feed her children, and were soon delivering monthly food baskets to hungry families. Yad Eliezer has now grown to encompass nineteen primary economic and social service programs that impact tens of thousands of individuals.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Yad Eliezer's scrupulous management and cadre of over 12,000 volunteers enables the organization to maintain limited overhead and administrative expenses. Indeed, over 96% of funds raised go directly to needy families. This achievement has earned Yad Eliezer the coveted "4-Star Exceptional" rating from Charity Navigator, which rates organizations based on how effectively and responsibly they utilize donations, and to what extent the charity is growing in terms of programs and services.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Yad Eliezer's mandate is to help families cope with financial difficulties and to empower them to break through the cycle of poverty and achieve self-sufficiency. Thanks to job training and other assistance, many families who were recipients of Yad Eliezer's food programs are now donors to Yad Eliezer. All this is made possible through the donations of caring individuals around the world - individuals like you.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;hr&gt;Source: &lt;a href=""&gt;Yad Eliezer Remastered Online With New Site &amp; Backend Solution&lt;/a&gt; at &lt;a href="http://www.rustybrick.com/"&gt;RustyBrick&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/RustyBrickWebNews/~4/IYFF_dzhXlQ" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description>

	      <title>Never Forget To Replace Your Home Air Filters</title>
	      <description>&lt;p&gt;
If you are like me, you typically forget to replace the air filters in your house.  I always hoped for an easy way to have this process somewhat automated.  That is why we are proud to present &lt;A href="http://www.ontimeairfilters.com/"&gt;On Time Air Filters&lt;/a&gt;.  Once you tell On Time Air Filters about your house or condo, it will do the rest.
 &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Setting this up is as easy as &lt;a href="http://www.ontimeairfilters.com/how-it-works"&gt;one, two and three&lt;/a&gt;.  You go to the &lt;A href="http://www.ontimeairfilters.com/order.php?action=step1&amp;home_type=house"&gt;Air Filter Wizard&lt;/a&gt; and just answer three simple questions:
 &lt;ol&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Pick Your Air Filter&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Choose the Quality of the Air Filter&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Specify How Often You Want It&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; 
Then you are done - On Time Air Filters will deliver the filters to your home or office on a set schedule.  You are billed every time an air filter is delivered to your home.   You can always change the frequency, quality or number of filters, at any time.
 &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Don't know what to order? Use the &lt;a href="http://www.ontimeairfilters.com/air-filter-facts"&gt;air filter facts&lt;/a&gt;.  Still unsure? Then &lt;A href="http://www.ontimeairfilters.com/Ask-MERV"&gt;ask MERV&lt;/a&gt;, the air filter specialist via email or on &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/ontimeairfilter"&gt;Twitter&lt;/a&gt; or &lt;A href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/On-Time-Air-Filters/269238700065?ref=ts"&gt;Facebook&lt;/a&gt;.
 &lt;/p&gt;

	      <title>College Scholarships The Web 2.0 Way</title>
	      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.discusawards.com/"&gt;Discus Awards&lt;/a&gt; changes the way college scholarships and high school awards work.  Discus makes scholarships social and more 'web 2.0' by allowing you to submit more than just paper, you can submit videos, images and other multimedia - and be judged based on that.  In a way, Discus takes the boredom out of the scholarship submission process and makes it fun and exciting.
 &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The three step &lt;A href="http://www.discusawards.com/how_it_works.php"&gt;nomination process&lt;/a&gt; is clear, easy to use and enjoyable.  High School students can nominate themselves, and parents, teachers, counselors and students can nominate a student they know.  You select the areas where you think you excel in by dragging the categories to the applicable boxes.  Then you describe in words, pictures, videos and so on why you rock at those areas.  Then build a short profile about yourself, similar to how you would on Facebook and sit back and relax.  
 &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
If you win a Discus Award, you are eligible for a $2,000 scholarship, one of which will be awarded every month of the school year starting January 10, 2010.  Winners also get their picture and profile on the  &lt;A href="http://www.discusawards.com/winners.php"&gt;Discus winners gallery&lt;/a&gt;.
 &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;b&gt;About Discus Awards:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;
The Discus Awards spring from a partnership between longtime educational services company &lt;A href="http://www.campusdirect.com/"&gt;Campus Direct&lt;/a&gt; and the internationally regarded awards company, &lt;a href="http://www.webbyawards.com/"&gt;Recognition Media&lt;/a&gt;.
 &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Campus Direct has worked closely with colleges and universities for more than 20 years, providing industry-leading products and services to schools, students, and parents.
 &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Recognition Media is an owner and producer of leading awards programs and events in Internet, media, and advertising, including the prestigious Webby Awards called the Internet's highest honor by the New York Times, and five other international awards programs.

	      <title>9 Years Coming, RustyBrick Launches New Web Site</title>
	      <description>&lt;p&gt;
I am very excited to announce that after nine years without updating the look of &lt;a href="http://www.rustybrick.com/"&gt;rustybrick.com&lt;/a&gt;, we have finally totally revamped our design.  It was a long time coming  and the day has finally come.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Why now?  A few reasons, the most obvious was the old design was, well - very old.  But more importantly, our business has expanded and our navigation needed to support that.  We added a new "&lt;a href="software.php"&gt;software&lt;/a&gt;" section to feature our iPhone Apps, our web based software that we sell direct and other applications we sell direct.  Our core business is still on the consulting and &lt;A href="services.php"&gt;service&lt;/a&gt; side, but we do sell software directly.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Also, we needed to revamp our site to support mobile devices.  In fact, a ton of our traffic comes from iPhones, due to the popularity of some of our &lt;a href="iphone.php "&gt;iPhone apps&lt;/a&gt;.  So we have a template designed specifically for iPhone and devices like it.  So if you have an iPhone, do check out this site on it and you'll see, all the content you see on the desktop will be displayed in a new iPhone friendly design on your device.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Finally, we added a &lt;a href="blog"&gt;blog&lt;/a&gt; so that the RustyBrick'ers can reach out to the community more.  Expect several blog posts from the team each week.  The topics will vary from coding tips and techniques to design frustration and down to the culture at our offices.  In fact, I hope to have the team blog about designing this site and all the challenges they had on the design and tech front.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
I hope you like the new look for RustyBrick and we welcome &lt;a href="new-rustybrick-site.html"&gt;feedback and bug reports&lt;/a&gt; at our blog!

	      <title>Stainless Steel Web Design For Aero Manufacturing</title>
	      <description>&lt;p&gt;RustyBrick transformed the Aero Manufacturing (&lt;a href="http://www.aeromfg.com/"&gt;www.aeromfg.com&lt;/a&gt;) web site, by overhauling the look, feel and backend features of the site.  The new site elegantly features some of the craftsmanship the company has been delivering for over 60 years.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The unique and custom products designed by Aero required a very unique and custom product management system.  We designed a flexible, but yet robust content management system to help maintain the products on the site, as well as product an easy to use frontend for potential customers.  Customers can find products is three ways, by product type, industry or application or use.
&lt;/p&gt;

	      <title>Move In Style With CityMove.com</title>
	      <description>&lt;p&gt;
Moving is typically not something people look forward to.  The hassle of packing everything up, hiring a moving company to transport the items and then putting everything away in the new residence is often very tiring.  CityMove is a site that aims to make one step of the process just a bit easier.  CityMove helps you &lt;A href="http://www.citymove.com/find_most_active.php"&gt;find a mover&lt;/a&gt;, to help you make that transition from your old home to your new one.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
CityMove allows customers to enter their move details, which movers can then respond to.  The system is a reverse auction model, which allows customers to select a mover based on criteria such as price, reviews, and reputation.  The web site takes movers through a simple four step process to find and accept a mover, and finally &lt;A href="http://www.citymove.com/reviews_recent.php"&gt;review the mover&lt;/a&gt;.  A nice graphical interface takes the mover through basic questions such as size of the move and destination of the old residence and new.  There are even ways to specify your rate preference, i.e. flat, hourly or open rate bids.  
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
CityMove has revolutionized the bidding process for moving jobs.  Check it out today at &lt;A href="http://www.citymove.com/"&gt;CityMove.com&lt;/a&gt;.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;Strong&gt;About CityMove.com:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;
CityMove is an innovative reverse auction website, where customers can enter their job information and let the movers bid on their jobs. Customers can then choose a mover based on price and past reviews.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
By allowing customers to view previously entered jobs, customers can get an idea of what their job will look like on CityMove, what information will be seen by the movers, and how much they can expect to pay. Movers benefit from our thorough job entry system that provides them jobs with comprehensive details, which enables them to accurately determine their price.

	      <title>NHA's Web Software Creates Labor-Saving Healthcare Certification Company</title>
	      <description>&lt;p&gt;
National Healthcareer Association (NHA) hired RustyBrick to build a complete web-based solution for the organization to use in the day-to-day operations.  The web software was custom built to replace third-party, out-of-box solutions, and build a single solution, with a single data source, help improve company-wide efficiencies and processes.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The solution encompasses a customer relationship management system for customer service, a lead management portal for the sales team, a finance section with QuickBooks integration, frontend ordering modules and a section for management to oversee the daily operation.  Now the finance team sees the same, real-time information that sales and customer service sees.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
By building a solution around how NHA functions, we were able to create tight workflows for all business divisions within the company.  These workflows help with data integrity and customer satisfaction.  Enabling the whole company to access the same data but tailored to each divisions permissions allows for a smooth running organization.  Designing a frontend area where customers can purchase exams directly online and integrate the exam dates, scores and customer information with the backend system removes any data duplication and saves costs and time.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;About NHA:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;
The National Healthcareer Association was established in 1989 with the vision of implementing national competency standards to promote quality patient care in alignment with the benchmarks developed by the NHA.  The NHA provides national credentials and an information support network to allied healthcare professionals, educators, and the healthcare industry.  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;hr&gt;Source: &lt;a href=""&gt;NHA's Web Software Creates Labor-Saving Healthcare Certification Company&lt;/a&gt; at &lt;a href="http://www.rustybrick.com/"&gt;RustyBrick&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/RustyBrickWebNews/~4/twD4GWJLk1w" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description>

	      <title>Connecting Moms &amp; Dads With ParentsRPeople.com</title>
	      <description>&lt;p&gt;Social networking sites is the latest craze on the internet, while motherhood and fatherhood is one of the oldest crazes in history.  That is why bridging the two by creating a social networking site for mothers and fathers to use in every day life of a parent, simply makes sense.  &lt;a href="http://www.parentsrpeople.com/"&gt;Parents R People&lt;/a&gt; is an online community that enables parents to connect via social networking tools, such as blogs, forums, groups and much more.  
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
In addition, the site enables professionals to offer their services to parents that can be helped by such offerings.  Adding the professional angle gives parents trusted and expert advice on topics from taxes to therapy.  The &lt;a href="http://www.parentsrpeople.com/Ask-a-Pro"&gt;Ask a Pro&lt;/a&gt; section allows registered members ask questions of all kinds to professionals with credentials to answer those questions.  Afraid to ask questions? No problem, just browse &lt;a href="http://www.parentsrpeople.com/top_rated.php?section=questions"&gt;the top questions&lt;/a&gt;,  &lt;a href="http://www.parentsrpeople.com/top_rated.php?section=pros"&gt;top professional&lt;/a&gt; profiles, the &lt;a href="http://www.parentsrpeople.com/Articles/By-the-Pros/"&gt;professional parenting articles&lt;/a&gt; or &lt;a href="http://www.parentsrpeople.com/Articles/Pro-Blogs/"&gt;pro blogs&lt;/a&gt; to find your answer within the wealth of topics already asked and answered.  Or just search the &lt;a href="http://www.parentsrpeople.com/search.php"&gt;parenting professional directory&lt;/a&gt; and contact that professional one-on-one.  Finally, if you are a professional, &lt;a href="http://www.parentsrpeople.com/pro-signup.php"&gt;sign up&lt;/a&gt; to be a Parents R People Pro!
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
Sometimes professionals are not the way to go and that is where ordinary parents can help other parents.  In the &lt;a href="http://www.parentsrpeople.com/Groups/"&gt;parenting groups&lt;/a&gt; section, you can participate in both public and private group discussions with parents dealing with the same issues as you are.  You can help parents with issues you have dealt with in the past or ask for guidance in areas that you are struggling with.  Connecting with parents who have been there and done that, can make the tireless job of parenthood just a bit easier.  Parent group categories include:
&lt;p&gt;
