SubHub's latest platform has been "live" since June this year (2011) and as an Agile based development team we're constantly working to improve it and add new features. As such, I've been looking into our engagement figures and some of this data has led me to believe our platform might not be as easy to use as we'd like in places. Why? Because the percentage of our new signups that are creating new content is not as high as it should be -- which was a bit of a surprise as SubHub is a content management system (CMS)!
Here at SubHub we're currently recruiting for our first full-time designer -- something that’s overdue, as many of our services are not yet as beautiful or as user-friendly as they ideally could be.
The CVs and links to portfolio websites are flooding in now and we are seeing some really good talent. But it amazes me to see how little consideration is given by many applicants to issues of grammar and spelling.
We were gratified last week at DrupalCon London to see the positive response to the Open App Standard initiative we introduced there, along with our collaborators at Phase2 Technology.
We believe that apps are going to become a crucial future component of Drupal, making it easier than has been previously possible to add discrete pieces of functionality to a Drupal website.
Today, SubHub and Phase2 announced the release of a new joint initiative, the Open App Standard.
The Open App Standard is a collective effort that documents a set of defintions and standards for any Drupal product or distribution that wishes to solve end-user problems with Apps.
When we decided to build our new Drupal 7-based platform, one thing we knew was that we could never by ourselves build every bit of functionality the platform ideally should have.
Back in late 2009 we decided to rebuild our SubHub platform. Here's how we ended up choosing Drupal.
Here at SubHub Towers we're what you might call BIG Apple fans. A lot of us have iPhones and the majority of us use an iPad.
With this in mind, we thought it would be fun (and hopefully useful) if we shared the iPad apps that we use to aid us in our roles here at SubHub . . .
Here at SubHub our product and software development team have adopted the agile methodology for product development.
Last weekend Steve was invited to sit on the panel of an exciting and lively debate held at the wonderful Being Human warehouse in Frome, Somerset.
Those who know Evan well know that he's a long-time follower of the Grateful Dead. While the Dead once conjured images of a roving carnival of hippies in tie-dyed t-shirts, they're now being taken a lot more seriously as our culture catches up and as people recognize that the Dead's organizational model has something to teach any organization.
