 It's just past 9.30pm on Friday night and I've decided to take 30 mins out(yes, i'm still working!) to catch up on my news feeds, twitter and of course..to update my blog. This week has by far been our busiest yet down at east coast interactive, we have been pushing ourselves a lot over the past weeks in particular, to get through the fearsome amount of work we've had on and now we're starting to see our various projects come together which is great. I now know what it really means to be "busy". I've worked in places before where the party line is always "we're really busy" but more often than not, its a case of "busy being busy" with no real substance behind the claim other than if they told the truth, they might be seen as not being busy...god forbid!

So there's just the one launch this week...that would be aberdeen-cyrenians.org, a fully content managed website to replace the basic website that had served them for a number of years. Next week will see a few large scale launches including the project I previously posted nothing about heh... along with several add ons to projects we've previously launched, we are also in discussions for a number of larger scale jobs to keep us busy when our current workload comes back down to a normal-ish level.

Mike, Stuart and myself decided we might like some social life back though so after a few months sustained at this level, we did the maths and agreed that it was time to grow and so went looking for a couple of top notch people to join us. I am glad to say that we have just filled one of the two positions I posted about previously although I am unable to name them as they are still currently working out their notice period. The developer in question will officialy start with us on the 14th April 2008. We are still looking for the right candidate for the other position although a number of interesting people have made themselves known so far from places we wouldn't have expected....it's all good!

Here's to next week!

aberdeen-cyrenians.org - Very nice looking site. Well done :-). Lets just hope that the council don't decide that they're next on the chopping list :-(
