The Wanted video tab (FBML)

Really simple FBML tab for The Wanted on their Facebook. I love FBML, simplicity is so effective and you can achieve enough without resorting to full blown app development on Facebook. This was a basic video environment where users could watch the new video, tweet about it, share it and suggest it to their friends using the FBML friend selector and request form.

Another bit of random fun, mostly fueled by boredom and a frustration to how awful Internet Explorer 6 is as a browser. This was mainly inspired by a particular day when i saw an unusual amount of tweets from developers on Twitter about IE6 failings. I decided to throw together a static page to tribute the awfulness!

I decided to put an @anywhere tweet box and hovercards on the page too, just so it didn’t feel like a complete waste of time. This was also a bit of a test to see how fast i could throw together a static page with @anywhere on it, taking the best part of 20 minuets.

Just a bit of WordPress fun making a web site for my Gecko. I did this mostly to see how fast i could throw a particular theme together from my base template, i think this came to around an hour 1/2 from design to finish. I also wanted to do a site with a right post layout spanning a whole vertical space.
