What can you see out your window? A webcam can be a fun addition to your website!

Filed under: General — sforbes @ 2:13 pm

This is the view from T324′s storefront webcam on one of our gorgeous Bay Area Fall days. Our little section of Solano is so charming and old-fashioned- it has the same feeling of traveling back in time that much of Alameda has. And you can see our shiny new Bike-shaped Bike Rack! If your business has a storefront and looks out on an interesting street, why not add a webcam? It’s a very affordable way to share your view of the world with your customers, and it’s a fun interactive feature- visitors to our site can point the camera themselves!

Coming up- Dinner with Albany, a community celebration!

Filed under: General,News — sforbes @ 12:22 pm

This is a great event that happens right on T324′s doorstep, and we’re really looking forward to sharing a meal with the whole neighborhood! Plus live music from great local banjolier Bill Evans! We’ll have a table decorated with blue and yellow things, and we hope you’ll stop by and say hi!

From the City of Albany’s website:

Dinner With Albany III is an incredible community event that features a sit-down dinner on Solano Avenue to celebrate our community by sharing a meal with friends, family and neighbors. The event was originally created to celebrate the city’s centennial in 2008 and it was such a huge success it has become a biennial event.

On Saturday, September 29, 2012, nearly 300 dinner tables will be placed in the middle of Solano Avenue (between San Pablo & Talbot Avenues) for dinner under a canopy of lights. At 6:45 pm, the dinner bell will ring and we will toast to our wonderful community! Attendees are encouraged to bring a pot luck from home, buy food from local participating restaurants at the event or pre-order food from your favorite local eatery and bring it with you. (more…)

New Albany Bowl Drupal website designed by T324!

Filed under: Clients,Features,News — sforbes @ 1:11 pm

What a treat it is to work with great local clients like John and Debbie at the Albany Bowl!

Everyone in our office loves the Bowl, and we’re so glad they chose us when they needed a brand-new website. The Albany Bowl has been a fixture on San Pablo Avenue since it opened in 1949; generations of Albany kids, Cal students and East Bayers have bowled there. In fact, 3,000 guests visit the Bowl every week.

The Bowl had outgrown their old website and with so many different events and activities happening, they needed a high-functionality site that would really show them off.

We created a bright, lively Drupal site that has interactive event and league calendars with sign-up forms, a menu page for the cafe, and highly visible call-to-action navigation. (more…)
