josh.se – @ Josh
Josh Sthlm is the company where I worked for two and a half years building communities. Their website was recently completely remade and the CMS functionality from Josh’s community platform XCAP is now used.
I made the system completely configurable for this site, so that no code needs to be changed when someone wants to add a module with information to any part of the website.
When I worked at Josh I developed new modules for the platform as well as building customer implementations. Examples of my work is the eventcalendar and the review engine.
Comments OffSubject – for MTV3 @ Josh
Subject is a very popular Finnish community, connected to the TV channel MTV3. Users can upload videos and images and write eachother messages, but it is the forum that is the most used part with over one million entries in just a couple of years. The forum is the place to be to discuss the Finnish version of the Big Brother show and Idol!
For Subject I’ve been adding extra functionality such as photo galleries for the users and doing bug fixes when problems have appeared. I also handled the releases to the numerous servers.
Comments OffNellad – for Sydsvenskan @ Josh
Nellad was a video community for teenagers in the Skåne area of Sweden. The Swedish newspaper Sydsvenskan wanted to have a youth community and the goal was to get all kids playing in garage bands to have their bands on Nellad. In the beginning the site was popular, thanks to a band contest arranged by Sydsvenskan, but after the contest was over, the interest dropped. Nellad couldn’t compete with the larger sites with similar functionality, such as MySpace, and is now closed down.
In this project I implemented most of the functionality, customizing the XCAP modules to work for Nellad, trying to make the front-end coders’ work as easy as possible. I handled releases and servers and built functionality to make existing content from Sydsvenskan and cms content seamlessly integrate with the community.
