Boys and girls,

In the coming weeks we’re gonna have various MaxGen Media team members posting in this very blog what they know about certain Web technologies. This is going to coincide the our release of the videos in the Touch section (which are admittedly taking longer than expected). For example, at one stage someone will make a post regarding Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) and what it means for you, the Web consumer. Then I’ll get one of the boys to give you a run down on Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), and why tableless Websites are more better than the other kind. Either way these PSAs will be in plain English and will be intended to help you better understand what we do at MaxGen.

So yeah, James Brown singing Sunny.

Afternoon team.

Big hello to visitors from the various CSS gallery sites that we’ve submitted our new design to. Hope you’re liking the look. We’re still going to implement the switchable themes eventually, but we aren’t calling that priority number one. Those videos I mentioned in the last post should be up shortly, so you wont have to hear my voice much longer.

Anyways, here’s something I came across the other day. Kiwi “folk parody” duo Flight of the Conchords have a deal with HBO in the states to air their show in whats going to be the hole left when The Sopranos finishes up for good in a couple of weeks time. Big shoes to fill. Either way, the pilot below has promise. Classic deadpan stuff.

Behold the new MaxGen Media site, complete with blog. We’re still on the “Web 2.0″vibe, packing clean lines, rounded corners, reflections and whatnot but this time we’ve dumped in a whole lot more content (and videos!) and in general made it easier to read. Yeah the text is a bit sassy, but I prefer it over the very corporate sounding stuff we had before.

We also aim to multiple CSS themes for this version of the site. Meaning we’re gonna have a little button on the bottom of the page eventually which when clicked, makes everything look all different like. Just wait a few weeks and you’ll know what I mean.

Anyways tell us what you think of the new look. We’re excited, and you should be too.

But for now lets break it down with some French electro-funk: Justice – D.A.N.C.E.
