Canals, bikes, bridges and beards. It can mean only one thing… EECI has rolled into Leiden again for the annual European ExpressionEngine extravaganza. The geek-ometer here in the Netherlands is at max, as some of the World’s top EE developers swap stories, tips and insights for 3-days.

DesignKarma is very excited to announce the launch of EEvolution—our first foray into ExpressionEngine add-on development. We’ve teamed up with EE developer Tim Mahoney to launch a couple of nifty products that some EE developers will find invaluable. There are more in the pipeline for 2010, so watch this space!

DesignKarma launched the all-new Furlongs Travel website over the weekend, adding to our growing list of travel based projects. Furlongs offer tailor-made escorted tours to many exciting and interesting destinations around the World. The new website reflects their pedigree, and gives the client their first fully content-managed online presence.

DesignKarma got a call from an excited client the other day informing us that the email template we designed for them has been featured as a case study on Campaign Monitor. Sunny Thinking are a long time client and collaborator, and they’re delighted with the reaction to their new regular email campaigns. Check out the case study.
