Clever tech and a new look for SeatPlans.com
Our work 01/11/2009
The recently launched SeatPlans.com is a site we’re particularly proud of. It’s a novel idea that allows flyers to read and share views on the best aeroplane seats. It shows users the best flights, airlines and seats on any journey around the world, based on reviews and ratings submitted by consumers, as opposed to comparing flights simply on price alone. Something important to a lot of flyers, and particularly frequent flyers.

Last Thursday we waved (a temporary) goodbye to Loft Project Manager and technical wizard Woody, as he set off for Melbourne to manage a live online reporting operation throughout the tournament.

We were chuffed when we heard about this review of the Homeless World Cup site in Third Sector, an industry journal for that market. We had no idea they were covering it, until it was pointed out to us in a pitch earlier this week. Yay! Get involved at www.homelessworldcup.org.

News 02/10/2008
Wow. We’ve just launched SeatPlans.com, a brand new web app for frequent flyers, and the Times Online has featured it twice already! Traffic shot through the roof and forums have been brimming with positive feedback. We’d actually hoped for a quiet bedding in period, but it seems the flyers don’t want to wait!

Asia Edition for Business Traveller
Our work 22/09/2008
This week we launched the new Business Traveller Asia website. Similar in scope to BusinessTraveller.com but targeted at the Asia-Pacific market, it offers stacks of news, reviews, city guides and community features for the jet set!
The roll-out relies heavily on the new multi-site technology in Matchbox, where content, advertising, user data and metrics can be managed centrally across your whole portfolio of websites.
