Loud Dog News

With innovative products and services, extensible capabilities, and A-list customers, all Mark Logic needed was a website refresh. But what did that mean?

We’ve been working on a community project this summer to create an event theme and identity for La Casa de las Madres’ fall fundraiser. Want to see the results?

Once again, yesterday evening the strains of the sublime, transcendent keyboard riff of the “The Final Countdown” could be heard in the Loud Dog office as we officially launched the ummm… re-launch of the the Loud Dog website. Now with new, improved portfolio!

Behold! Loud Dog now has a LinkedIn Company page! Is this good? What the heck is LinkedIn anyhow? Why should you care?

Rejoice! Louddog has a facebook page!

In 1440 Johannes Gutenberg invented the printing press – a milestone in printing technology. The printing process has evolved through the centuries, and in 2008 the potential of such technology was fully realized. Behold the EM-Assist marketing kit!

We love anything to do with tigers – Frosted Flakes, Siegfried and Roy, Danno Enterprises, even Exxon. That’s why we we’re always excited to work with Tora Trading Systems. We aren’t entirely sure what they do (though it involves stocks and Asia), but they have a tiger in their logo!

At the very end of last year, we relaunched louddog.com. Now, barely two months later, we’re releasing the next version. In this article, Josh describes the decisions that led to the initial design, and what’s changed in the latest iteration.

We launched a refreshed Loud Dog website last night to great fanfare and the sounds of The Final Countdown playing in our offices.

As designers at a web design company, it’s not every day that you get to work with paper… especially when you get to make a dress out of it. As an homage to employees past at Loud Dog, we wanted to make use of the surplus of old business cards we had in the office.

In which we welcome our new Office Manager, Haiba Hamilton, and say goodbye to our old Office Manager.

We would like to officially welcome Mr. David Schmittdiel to our team. Many of you may remember David’s earlier adventures with us almost two years ago when he was working as a Marketing something-or-other. But after we discovered a trail of office supplies leading from our storage closet to his pockets, we asked him to leave and never come back.

We would like to give an official welcome to our four newest employees, Jodi, Marty, Mat and Tia. They are a mostly irreplaceable group, bringing years of experience to our team. We appreciate not only their talents, but their charm, wit and awesome hairdos.

Though we’ve been in our current offices for almost two years, it wasn’t until yesterday that we finally got a proper sign. We suffered through several months with no sign at all, then a paper sign taped to the door and, for a brief period, we hired a drifter to stand on the street waving a handwritten sign we’d made in a moment of abject miscalculation.

A much-overdue welcome to Annaliese Dell’aringa, our new “office mommy.” Annaliese, currently attending SFSU (which she claims is some sort of a “school” or something), enjoys taking helicopter rides with her nephew, expelling numerous expletives in Italian to us when she gets angry, counting and most of all buying expensive gifts for her co-worker and idol Jon.

Amelia Catalano has joined us as a part-time advanced front-end developer. She’s going to be working with us to create outstanding standards-compliant websites using cutting-edge XHTML and CSS techniques.

Loud Dog extends a warm welcome to Jonathan Adams, who joins us as a Designer.

We’re moving our San Francisco offices to a new, larger location in the heart of North Beach.

After Loud Dog returned to work after the July Fourth weekend, we were shocked to learn that Andy Glazer, star Poker Author and centerpiece of Final Table Poker had passed away, apparently from a blood clot in his brain.
