Dan Morris and I (really it was all Dan) have been working on the GeekUp - Job Board, Web Industry jobs in the UK’s North-West. and its now available for public consumption. It’s still undergoing development and will be improved over time but its being launched ahead of tomorrows Ruby and Rails conference.

If you are looking for a job in the North West specifically in the web industry then the GeekUp - Job Board should be one of the first stops. If you are looking to recruit then its completely free to post a job.

GeekUp - Ruby and Rails is a FREE, one-day mini conference aimed at people who want to start developing using Ruby and Ruby on Rails. The event introduces attendees to the Ruby language and the Ruby on Rails framework.

The event has limited places so register early to avoid disappointment.

The Site Design

Stuart Frisby and I worked on the site and in what short time we had I’m really please with the result.

Crown Fashion for Walls Website went live and while I’m not usualy a fan of Flash websites, I’ll make an exception for this one. The website has alittle gem under the hood, it makes use of the SWFObject by Geoff Stearns which allows you to output content and then use Javascript to overlay flash for people with the Flash Plugin installed. It allows for search engines to correctly spider making the content search engine friendly, and the URL rewritting takes care of people entering the site by directing them to the correct page in the flash version.
