In our line of work, we see a ton of terrific ideas and usually hear very standardized messaging around them. It usually follows a consistent tune of "We're looking to get a working prototype as proof of concept" or "We don't have much budget so we're getting quotes to get investors interested.".

Unleashed Technologies is excited to announce the opening of our blog to industry experts that compliment our key services. As all of you know we stay very focused on bringing value driven content to our visitors so that decision makers can plan a concise strategy for getting the highest return on investment from their web presence(s). 

As a web firm that provides three primary offerings for verbose CMS systems (Drupal, The Marketing Command Center, and WordPress) we find ourselves in a strange spot when talking to business owners about the future of developing their web presence.

We've been huge fans of Drupal here at Unleashed Technologies. Its modularity, simplicity, and granular control have helped make it a popular open-source solution for many. Despite everything Drupal has done right, it has falled behind other CMSs in a few key areas. The upcoming release of version 7 promises to correct these shortcomings and add even more awesomeness to an already-amazing system:

I wanted to put up a blog post for everyone that's made the investment  into a new corporate website and isn't sure if it's producing the ROI they expected on purchase. The first rule of thumb to remember is a website much like a web application, is never done. It continues to grow and evolve as your business changes or you get additional feedback from your client base. The purpose of any website (especially in the small to mid sized businesses) is to usually automate resource sharing with clients and convert new visitors to clients.

During our last team meeting one of our developers ran into this simple checklist for companies and web firms rolling out new projects. The tool is simply designed to provide you with a comprehensive check list of items that any small business needs before launching their new web presence.

It's been a long time since the model of Software As A Service (SaaS) hit the scene and you'll hear many split opinions on it based on business philosophy, personal experience of successes/failures. When looking at this subject you need a particular pair of lenses for it to make sense. I'm including a basic guideline of when Unleashed Technologies, LLC thinks software as a service makes sense and when it doesn't.

Google Chrome has just overtaken Safari as the 3rd most-popular browser in the US. This finding comes from StatCounter, an analytics company which aggregates stats from over 3 million websites.

On Wednesday, June 9th, 2010, it was publicly announced that Unleashed Technologies, LLC would be the strategic partner for Automated Graphics Systems (AGS) located out of White Plains, MD for co-location, web hosting, and web management. The strategic partnership came about after a synergistic relationship was found between the two organizations.

 So I'm burning the midnight oil looking over things and arranging my day tomorrow so I can be affective after a long day of meetings when I bump into during a very interesting website; Recorded Future. Evidently based on outside sources this company has been bought by Google for an undisclosed amount of money. I was able to sign up for a free version that's extremely limited and basically offers non-configurable reports based on the industry or information you'd like to track.
