I was interviewed by NetBusinessTalk. You can find it here.

iFroggy Design is out of the iFroggy Network and the site has been taken down.

You could say that, up until today, the iFroggy Network site that has existed the longest is iFroggy Design. I started developing websites “professionally” for people in the fall of 1998 (before there was an iFroggy Network) and that is when iFroggy Design - or what iFroggy Design would eventually become - was started. It was called PSM Web Design. Later, it became PSM Web Development. Finally, iFroggy Design.

Developing websites was the first thing I did online as far as working for money. Soon, though, I had other ideas. I had ideas for sites of my own. And I developed them. At first, they were rough - some would say bad. But, you have to start somewhere. For a while, I continued to work for the various clients that presented themselves.

But, for quite a while now, I have been turning down any offers/potential offers, as I am focused on working for myself and my own projects (iFroggy Network) than working on projects for other people. I had been leaving it up incase a project would be offered to me that really interested me or someone was interested in having me handle a reasonly quick job for them and in the mean time, just kept working on my own. I have been (and still will be) doing some small work for friends and family here and there, but I am (more or less) completely focused on my own project these days, besides that. So, I felt that it finally made sense to take it down and take it out of the network.

As 2005 has come to a close, I thought I’d take a look back at the year and recap some of the bigger things that we did this year (they’re all to do with site launches/closures).

On March 4, 2005 (03/04/05), we launched Canon Camera Shop. Unfortunately, Canon didn’t care for that and the site closed. In it’s place, we launched CameraBlast.com on September 3, 2005.

On April 23, 2005, we launched WebDevBooks.com.

On May 5, 2005 (05/05/05), we launched YanksBlog.com.

On June 21, 2005, we launched DrGregHouse.com and on December 16, 2005, we launched the DrGregHouse.com Blog.

On July 7, 2005, we launched CommunityPromotion.com.

On August 11, 2005, we launched MicrosoftBlog.com.

On September 9, 2005, we launched CommunityAdmins.com.

On December 3, 2005, we launched the new iFroggy Network design, iFroggy Network Bar design and the iFroggy Network Blog.

Will we launch 9 sites/bring 9 new sites into the network in 2006 as we did in 2005? I doubt it. :) But, we’ll continue to develop new sites at the pace that makes sense.
