Quite excited to be helping the with the launch of exciting new wine retailer Yorkshire Vintners. The launch includes an online retail function and a robust social media strategy. …and some tasty wine hopefully!

"At present I have about £150,000 of work on the order book directly from the web site. We've also been specified by a number of architects who’ve visited the site, so that's a real bonus to us and a sign the site is reaching its most desirable audience."
After a long and productive day at the digital coalface, there’s nothing quite like a cool refreshing beer.

He said he'd seen Elastic Media featured in Web Designer Magazine. I had no idea, so I bought a back issue, and bingo! There we go, No. 8 in the "Blog Beautiful" section. Thank you Steven Jenkins!
