April Round Up - Tuesday, 29th April 2008

April has been a busy month, with work on several projects and the end of a long term contract.

• Harbour Guides is my newest featured client. We've made a lot of upgrades to the site this month - in the form of search engine optimization, layout and website standards compliancy.
• I've updated the website of Liverpool-based silversmith Lisa Jane Forrester. There are several new photographs of her work which is definitely worth checking out.
• In the coming weeks I will be providing e-commerce functionality for PortraitWorldUK. The company has been established by colleague Les Darlow, a talented artist and graphics designer.
• Finally, my long term contract with Lealta Benefits has come to an end after a year. During the last month I created the following systems for them:
  • Microsoft Excel to Google Maps Script - Created for a subsidiary company, Travel TV, this system allows the user to upload a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet of their customer locations across the country - niftily converting all postcodes into co-ordinates and then instantly generating a country-scale map, complete with all fields from the spreadsheet.
  • Distance from Postcode Calculator - For the Lealta Benefits website, this script allows the user to enter their postcode and then returns results of businesses close to their area complete with distances.
