Famous Davis utilises these products heavily in our web development, video streaming and eCommerce websites. I personally have used the Visual Studio Suite for the last few versions now. It's solid and gets the job done effectively and efficiently which means a solid and compliant website for you. SQL Server is the database platform we use behind our websites. It is fast, safe and secure. From what I've read, to date, Windows Server 2008 is the most solid and secure Windows server platform yet, which gets me really excited to take it on a test run.

   Hi folks, Nick here. I am currently writing to you in the brand new Internet Explorer 8 beta web browser that Microsoft released last week. They have added all sorts of interesting features that will enhance your web browsing experience. A couple of their recent additions are Webslices and Activities. These will allow you to do actions like highlighting an address or a name of a business and then within a couple clicks, being able to pull up additional information about the subject. You can receive information such as a map of the businesses location, reviews of the business or perhaps search results from Google. From here, IE 8 gives you the options of sharing it with people around you, by e-mail, posting it directly to a blog, or sharing it on Facebook. Looking at reviews of a new digital camera? Highlight the camera's name and then check the eBay Webslice to view current prices. So far I've really been enjoying the extra functionality the new browser has to offer. However, would I reccomend for you to install it? Probably not as it is still in beta and definitely has a few bugs to be fixed. Once the official version released, however, I would say it will be a very powerful browser.

 

 

   While the new bells and whistles are really cool, perhaps the most important change is that Microsoft promises that Internet Explorer 8 will be more compliant with the existing web standards out there. What does this mean for you? It means (hopefully) less bugs and issues with the sites you visit every day and less issues with your current website. The sites we create for our clients already adhere to the web standards, which means they will work on the popular browsers out there and we are currently checking to make sure they will be compliant with Internet Explorer 8. If you have a website, make sure that your web site designer is up to date with these standards and is up to par with the upcoming web browsers and technology.

 Hi folks, Nick here! I am very excited to announce that we are on Version 2 of FamousDavisPro.com! "Why the change?" you may ask. Well, in the past two years we have sort of, "Grown out," of our previous design. The scope of our business has narrowed and our services have been fine-tuned. Because of this, the previous design was beginning to feel a little constricting. We wanted something new to get our message across in a light and fun fashion, yet still maintaining a business appeal and getting our message across clearly. Sort of a heavy checklist but I think we can say that we achieved it. Leave a comment and tell us what you think!

 

 If you have similar feelings about your website, whether you have outgrown it or if you feel it's time for a change, take time to pursue that instinct. It is important that your website correctly portrays your business. If you are going through some exciting changes, make sure that your website can reflect these and grow along with your business. So whether you could use a redesign, a quick tune-up or maybe you just want a second opinion, feel free to give us a call, we'll be glad to share our information with you!
