The new Lecht multimedia and live feed website goes live to critical acclaim

Following on from the resounding success of their first Deepblue-designed website, the Lecht 2090 commissioned us to produce a new Web 2.0 CMS full site detailing the centre's summer and winter operations. The new site, which features a full screen background and panel feeds, was designed completely from scratch. Deepblue took the best elements of its previous work on the site and refined them even further, stripping out the need for Adobe Flash and making the site easier and quicker to use in all respects. We also improved the reports from the centre and live weather feeds and imaging. Lastly, we set up social media feeds from Twitter and Facebook, delivered inline on the page as well as setting up a dedicated Lecht video channel. The site also features an innovative summer/winter switch which will completely change the look and feel of the site in winter months - as simple as flicking a switch.

The new duvetduck.com website will feature inline video players along with full e-commerce facilities, tied in with WorldPay for secure online transactions. Work is on-going on this project however we expect it to go live in the first week of September.

Glogal oil and gas giants, CSL, have asked Deepblue to produce a new App for the company for use on Iphone, Android and Blackberry Operating Systems.

The new App is already taking shape and we expect final delivery around the middle of September - dependant upon Apple's rigorous acceptance policy to the App store (which, from experience, is random in exactly how long it can take). Updates to follow.

Aberdeen Auto Clean contact website and logo production

New start SME, Aberdeen Auto Clean approached Deepblue for the production of a new 'contact' website to aid clients looking to book the company's services.

Not operating from a fixed premises means the company can work around its customers' needs - however it also makes self promotion and taking bookings difficult. For this reason the development of strong corporate branding and website (to enable online bookings) was seen as essential to the company's success. www.aberdeenautoclean.co.uk

A new Deepblue website - in production, very hush hush but rumours abound . . .

No-one quite knows what it will be but . . . Some say its politics are terrifying, and that it once punched a horse to the ground . . . Some say that it quit i'm a celebrity because it was scared of trees, and that it thought Star Wars was a documentary . . . Some say it never blinks, and that it roams around the woods at night foraging for wolves . . . Some say its skin has the texture of a dolphin's, and that wherever you are in the world, if you tune your radio to 88.4, you can actually hear its thoughts . . . Some say that it denies the existence of gravity; and that it keeps all three of its testicles in a Gucci man bag . . . Some say it naturally faces magnetic north, and that all of its legs are hydraulic . . . Some say that its genitals are on upside down, and that if it could be bothered, it could crack the Da Vinci Code in 43 seconds . . .

All we know is its coming soon and it'll be called the new Deepblue website
