February 2010 - February was a busy one for Yellahoose and its current and new customers!
Crossroads for Women began billing from its new clinical tracking software, implemented in 2009, with Yellahoose's help customizing claims and tweaking claim data for the Agency's specific needs. Remote computer management solutions were also rolled-out in the Agency's Kennebunk, Windham, Portland (Back Cove and Old Port) locations.
The Gulf of Maine Times published monthly updates to the online newspaper. These include news about Nova Scotia's recently published state of the coast report as well as a study on climate change and its measured affect on Casco Bay.
Ecosystem Indicator Partnership published its March/April 2010 journal.
Gulf of Maine Council's Habitat restoration program (in partnership with NOAA and Maine State Planning Office) made significant updates to and launched its online grant application tool on March 1.
PDT Architects, the Portland, Maine-based community-focused architecture and design firm, relocated its web presence to Yellahoose partner Packawhallop's servers... with Yellahoose help managing the technical aspects of the uneventful relocation.
Yellahoose helped Atlanta, Georgia-based King & Moore and HolzCreative move, make necessary programming and database updates and relaunch the Shannondell at Valley Forge website.
And Boston, Massachusetts-based Kevin Cradock Woodworking moved its website, including database and CMS systems, with Yellahoose's expert analysis and assistance.

Winter 2009-2010 Gulf of Maine Times is launched
December 2009 - The winter 2009-2010 Gulf of Maine Times was launched using a re-vamped information architecture and user interactivity focus developed and implemented by Yellahoose.
The new Times uses blog software for content management, comments and RSS feeds. The software's an excellent choice for the Times, because content is easily manageable by editors, writers and web masters. Tools for tracking how the site and content are used were also made part of the upgrade.
The new issue of the Times is thematically focused on ocean issues (wild-life, sustainable development, science and research) in the Gulf of Maine region: Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Maine, New Brunswick and Nova Scotia.
The site is hosted by Packawhallop.

Gulf of Maine Council issues winter '08 Gulf of Maine Times, publishes salt marsh ecology booklet, and launches project progress report tool
March 2008 - March was a busy month for product and information updates from the Gulf of Maine Council on the Marine Environment! And Yellahoose provided critical IS and consulting services.
The Spring / Winter 2008 edition of the Gulf of Maine Times was released. This edition includes new web features for Times readers, including tools to share articles with others, and on the back-end a new (to the Times!) template system to improve workflow and reduce the effort and cost it takes to release the online paper. JavaScript, CSS and PHP were all used in this edition.

The Council also published Salt Marshes in the Gulf of Maine, a 42 page booklet on salt marsh monitoring and restoration in the Gulf. The publication was edited by Peter Taylor of Waterview Consulting.

Yellahoose developed a number of easy-to-use, web-based applications for the Council to track users interested in Salt Marshes in the Gulf of Maine, including capturing key demographic and professional information, and Yellahoose developed tools for users to request hard-copy versions of the booklet.
Data are managed in PostgreSQL, and the web application was written using PHP and JavaScript.
Habitat restoration grants were awarded also, and part of this year's grant monitoring process is the implementation of an online tool for awardees to use to document progress. Yellahoose developed the tool, with Jon Kachmar of the Maine Coastal Program and Peter Taylor of Waterview Consulting, using technologies, tools, methodologies and best practices already developed for and in use by the Council.
And we don't have nice screenshots for work did for the Christine Tilburg in the Council's Ecosystem Indicator Partnership (ESIP) and Christian Krahforst in the Gulfwatch Contaminants Monitoring committees, but that doesn't mean the services provided weren't fundamentally enabling — or, to be honest, terribly time intensive:
Yellahoose implemented PostgreSQL databases for Christine and Christian to use to manage and massage ESIP and contaminants data. The databases are password-protected. Christine and Christian can import data, tweak tables, and they can even link data to other data the Council already has at its disposal. They the good, cross-platform software, DbVisualizer, to manage their databases.
