The lines of communication are always open and available. Even if I did not understand all the technology and language, they did not hesitate to patiently start over with me on several occasions. Our website now reflects O3 Strategies’ expertise and our goals. That combination has worked well for us.

We feel that we can trust O3 Strategies to keep our best interest in mind and not push us for additional services that we may not need/want. This lack of pressure fuels our trust in their services and we know we can approach them as our company needs grow.

I was very impressed with the time O3 Strategies put into learning our system. Leadership development is an intangible service/product to many people and O3 Strategies helped us put a tangible image on the internet for our company.

Brian is responsive to communications, and nowadays where there isn’t much direct contact, Brian makes himself available. His integrity rates very high with us.

Highly effective – O3 wants to understand and wants to build in value and as such, maintains open communication channels. They are willing to research and consider other creative options if for no other reason than to rule out what would not have worked.

North Carolina budget watchdog group goes live

Brian Onorio — Fri, 03 Oct 2008 18:51:01 +0000

O3 Strategies, Inc is pleased to announce the release of CitizensInformed.com, our latest production to date.

Citizens Informed is a Raleigh-based non-profit group working to inform the citizens of North Carolina about wasteful state spending. With their new website, Citizens Informed hopes to attract members to build their coalition, making them a strong voice for the taxpayers of North Carolina.

Along with the fresh design of CitizensInformed.com, a content management system was built to handle copy placement and updates. A snazzy rotating “fact” gizmo adorns the left side detailing a few outrageous cases of government waste. A fully streamlined coalition signup form also exists on all the pages to the right.

Autosave a lifesaver

The Leadership Trust® has been live with their applications, FARR, for three weeks now. A few bugs came up which were promptly fixed. But a big lesson was learned: save your user’s data whenever possible!

The problem that we had was with a session timeout. Some folks were leaving their computer to return a few hours later and resume working on one of the requirements for the course. Upon hitting submit, the data was gone because of a session timeout.

Within a few hours of the first report of this, we were quick to the scene with a fix: autosaving with prototype and AJAX.

Now the user’s data is saved periodically, allowing a natural disaster to occur and never lose their data.

Lesson learned: autosave, autosave, autosave!
