CSO Online, the web edition of the CSO magazine, has re-launched. CSO focuses on security and risk within the enterprise. We worked closely with Keith LaFerriere at Visual Activity to iron out a usable design. We think the results are awesome!
We also helped by migrating the content from a legacy CMS (content management system) to their current one. To do this, used the power of Ruby with some help by the popular ActiveRecord library to quickly extract information stored in a blend of MS-SQL and Oracle databases to a nice single Oracle database.

The very talented Ethan Marcotte (now part of Airbag Industries) was the designing force for the public-facing portion of the project.
We are very excited about Tech Dispenser, Computerworld’s latest invention!
