Network You – New DotNetNuke YouTube Video Module

Recently we launched a new website called Network You. The site can be found at networkyou.org.

Of particular interest on the site is a new module or ours soon to be released to the DotNetNuke Community called Mushroom Video Module.

The module will feed Youtube Play Lists from youtube.com directly into your site in an easy to manage and easy to use video feed.

The end result of the feeds looks like this:

With the video feeds being selected directly from a play list selector button that referenced a YouTube account name.

The module also uses the template system developed by InteractiveWebs for the display system that allows simple to load templates to be customized to the users requirements.

An example of the module with multiple feeds onto a single page is this one: http://www.networkyou.org/Network/Professionals/VideoTopics.aspx

We will be releasing the module to the public in the next few weeks. We would love to hear any comments!

iWebs News–Now available on the iPhone and iPad

Today marks a big day for us at InteractiveWebs. We have had approved and released our version 2.0 update to our popular iPhone app “iWebs News”.

What’s New

The App has been totally rewritten by us, and now is released as a native Xcode iPad & iPhone app in one.

So if you have an iPad, and have previously seen our iWebs News app, then please check out the app on your iPad. It is a terrific experience.

Why is it a Big Deal for us?

Much of our focus over the last 8 months has been on enabling our team to produce rapid iPhone and iPad apps. In order to do this, we felt it necessary to develop a framework that we have called “Mushroom”.

The release of this 2.0 update for iWebs News App marks the first release of any App by us that is built entirely on our new Mushroom Framework.

Naturally we are pleased that apple process approved the app first time around, as this means that all the hard work in testing and resolving any issues paid off.

What does it mean for us?

Actually it means quite a bit! Now we have the rapid deployment framework, that is a “Universal App” running on both iPhone and iPad, we are able to use and deploy the app on behalf of our customers and clients.

Because all of the code is ours, we can take the future development in any direction we like. We are really very excited to see the result, and see how well it performs.

Would you like your own iPhone / iPad App?

If you like what you see, and are interested in having your own business with an App like this, then please contact us to discuss your needs.

New DotNetNuke Module–Mushroom Image

This week we are releasing the first of our Integration module suite. The suite called Mushroom is designed to allow integration between WordPress, DotNetNuke, Social Media, and iPhone App.

The first module we are publically releasing is called “Mushroom Image” and is an image rotator style module that allows feeds from WordPress to run images directly into your DotNetNuke website.

Like our other recent module releases, we have designed the backend for easy and fast configuration using JS as the basis of the User Interface.
