Outbrain

Under the direction of Jason Santa Maria, SimpleBits designed the logo for Outbrain. We also handled the HTML, CSS and JavaScript development for Mr. Santa Maria’s designs.

Wikirank

Dan Cederholm worked with Small Batch, Inc. on the design (logo and interface) of their first project, Wikirank: a tool for exploring and comparing what’s popular on Wikipedia.

TravelPost

TravelPost.com puts relevancy into travel advice with journals, blogs and clean-and-fast information about cities, hotels, etc. SimpleBits was contracted to redesign the logo, giving more proper emphasis on the site’s focus. In addition, we helped refine the site’s interface with re-usable styles and friendly icons.

Rollyo

Rollyo (short for “Roll Your Own Search Engine”) enables the concept of a personal search engine — load in a list of favorite sites to create a “searchroll” that can be used to target search a specific subject. The site also allows you to share your searchrolls with other users.

SimpleBits handled both the logo and site design for Rollyo, turning the “rolling” and “targeted search” aspects of the site into a friendly, colorful mark.

Flexible site templates were created that borrowed the rounded feel of the logo, while at the same time accommodating varying amounts of content and data. This is not just another search engine, but also a community resource for sharing the best destinations on the web.

The goal was designing an environment that’s clear, easy to use, immediately understandable, and fun.

Cork’d

Cork’d is a free service for wine aficionados, allowing members to review, share and discover wine. Dan Cederholm and Dan Benjamin launched Cork’d publicly in May 2005. It was later acquired by internet wine star, Gary Vaynerchuk.

Dan Cederholm designed Cork’d from top to bottom, including logo/branding, illustration, icon and interface design, as well as XHTML/CSS development. The site was expertly programmed from top to bottom by Dan Benjamin using Ruby on Rails.

The goal of Cork’d is to bring wine to the everyday person — to remove the snobbery often associated with the world of wine. The result is a fun, playful, easy-to-use site that’s enjoyable to explore and offers a service that focuses on community for keeping track of and discovering new bottles.

The design’s goal was to bring a readable, flexible and bulletproof resource to wine fans. Bottoms up.
