American Festivals Project Redesign

American Festivals Project Redesign

This is a redesign of a friends' project website called The American Festivals Project. The old site had a Wordpress blog that was pretty well filled out, so we took that as a base and created a new Wordpress site around it. New features include:

  • Update to Wordpress 2.8beta
  • Easy blogging of Flickr Photos with Wordpress plugin
  • Photo Galleries powered by Flickr + Wordpress plugin
  • Twitter updates at the top of the page (updated every 30min)
  • Google Map of the Festival Tour
  • Browse by Tag
  • Social Networking links / Services
  • Video blogging from Vimeo
