We integrated with Facebook, with impression tracking, a contest and coupons. Great work by: Mark Wagner and Marcus Didion both of Minneapolis and Bolin Marketing. EasyFindLids.com




 

Thank you Google cache

2/26/2009 - I was working on this site and completely wiped out the home page, but thanks to Google's cache, I was able to retrieve the content. Thanks Googlier engineers!

SlingBox and the Green Bay Packers

12/2/2008 - I was put in a situation where I was going to be at a Sunday football party in Minneapolis, Minnesota where obviously the Queens trump the world champion Green Bay Packers on local television in MN. See the ingredients to keep a cheesehead happy.

Using the ExactTarget API.

11/22/2008 - Another poorly documented API...here's a start.

Christmas list management.

04/28/2010 - Starting on version 3.0 - Will be open to the public.

10/8/2009 - Released version 2.0 - Now if I could just get Mom & Dad to use the product image selector.

12/2/2008 - Everything has been developed and is now in use. Phase 2 requests have already begun to roll in...I need a PM on this! It's been very interesting working with such a small, but yet diverse persona.

11/11/2008 - Got side tracked with a x-mas list app. the family needed. Passing a word doc around just doesn't work.

Building a website using public API's.

10/05/2008 - Decided that with all of the free API's available today that I would attempt to develop a site that would use that free information to make some money as an affiliate. Starting with AWSECommerceService (ECS) and Best Buy's Remix. I also plan to create a centralized spot that family and friends can share photos - face it, mom, dad, John and Doreen are never going to get Flickr accounts.

10/06/2008 - Finally got the framework up for the site. Architected and developed at Bolin Digital.

10/07/2008 - Implemented a design I found on blogengine.net, but trashed it for a more simple(original) design that you are seeing today.

10/08/2008 - Began working on using the the Amazon Web Service - could not find any simple code for C# that searched for a product - figured it out after a couple of pain staking hours.

10/08/2008 - Updating this page and others for SEO and having some cocktails.
