Getting Social with Bokardo Design and Ant's Eye View
By leelefever on July 24, 2007 - 9:27am
In the last couple of weeks two people I know have made the jump into the independent world and I think we'll all be better off for it. Both are focused on the social side of the web and bring with them a ton of real world experience.
Jake "Community Guy" McKee, someone I've known for years and consider a great friend created Ants Eye View. Here's how Jake describes his services:
At Ant’s Eye View we concentrate on providing as many services as possible within a very small niche, namely online and offline social connection between company and consumer.
I have no doubt that Jake will do well. And, man that is a cool logo.
Joshua Porter at Bokardo has become one of my favorite bloggers - he consistenly has pertinent, informed and smart things to say about social design. Josh recently created Borkardo Design, where he'll put his smarts to work. Here's how Josh described his services in a recent post.
I’m going to offer the exact services that I write about here at Bokardo: Interface design and strategy for social web applications. For those of you who have read Bokardo for a long time, nothing that I offer will be a surprise. I’m simply putting into practice what I’ve been preaching…so to speak.
Welcome to the independent world Josh and Jake. I'm sure you'll do wonderfully and I hope we can find ways to work together.
Thanks for the kind words.
Hey Lee, thanks so much for the kind words. Your encouragement to move in this direction has meant the world to me and I really appreciate it. You're a good friend, a staunch ally, and a fierce "competitor"!
Thanks for the mention
Yes, lets find ways to work together. And congrats on the video direction you're going in...I've been enjoying your current releases immensely. :)
Cheers,
Josh
