Nordic Heritage Sport Club upgrades website with advanced information management tools

Febuary 2008 - The Nordic Heritage Sport Club upgraded their website in February with database design and development, website programming (including implementation of webservices), and hosting by Yellahoose. The site was designed by SlickFish Studios.



The Club promotes outdoor recreation and economic vitality in Aroostook County by providing first-class facilities and programs to residents, athletes and visitors.

The new website includes an easy-to-user content management system (CMS) the Club can use to add and update news, event, calendar and cross-country ski trail condition information, photography and documents.

The upgrade required moving the site to a more capable and robust web hosting environment and design and development of a relational database management system (RDBMS).


  • The graphic design and user interface was developed in Flash, HTML, CSS and JavaScript. 

  • The RDBMS was developed in MySQL. 

  • The website was programmed in PHP. 

  • Webservices were implemented in RSS.

  • Web and database hosting was moved to a Linux server.

  • Coordination of work and management of source files between designers and developers was managed using Trac and Subversion.

  • Google Analytics was added so that the Club could track how the website was being used and to optimize it accordingly.

The new servers provide Olympus with even higher processing power for their PostreSQL database and greater storage space for client and internal company documents. The servers run Debian Linux.

Yellahoose adds How Tos to website

January 2008 - Yellahoose added what'll be a growing collection of How Tos, geared towards web developers, web designers, programmers and system administrators.

Is it dumb to share this kind of knowledge?

Geez. Perhaps. But if a system administrator is having trouble firewalling Ubuntu Linux, it seems better to us that he or she is able to do that and move on to contributing positively to the Internet environment.

Enjoy!
