Much has happened in the last few months. We have been working with Danagger Audio Works on their new "Plan B" project. Our responsibilities have been writing the software that handles the core functionality of, as well as designing the intuitive user-interface for configuring, the product.

Busy times indeed! Our existing clients are continually upgrading their websites and applications, and we have gained many new clients lately, as well. There is so much to do, in fact, that we have had to hire on some additional help. We would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone that has worked with OK Computer Solutions. We are greatful for the amount of work we are receiving, and we hope to see even more.

In other news, OK Computer Solutions has just launched the new People In Motion Kelowna website. This website offers an updated look and feel, as well as much more information that is also more up-to-date. See http://www.peopleinmotionkelowna.com

We have many more goodies baking in the oven; keep an eye on this site to keep up with what's going on.

We'd love to hear any comments you may have.  And don't hesitate to contact us if you have a project we can help you with.  We look forward to hearing from you!

Wow!  These are exciting times for OK Computer Solutions!

On Friday, March 12th, OKCS and  Carbon Design helped launch the new-look, new-feel Castanet.net website.  It's a bold look for Castanet, a look built upon the same principles they introduced when they brought you the peerless  Firewatch website.

And this week, the new Regional District of Central Okanagan website will debut.  We are sure that this new 400+ page website will be an invaluable resource for residents of the Central Okanagan.

In March we saw Jason Brolund of burningworks, a friend and long-time member of Kelowna's IT community, follow his dream and accept a position with the Kelowna Fire Department.  We wish him the best with his new career!  We've been fortunate to have already established great relationships with some of his former clients.

It seems like it's been forever that we've been advertising our own site redesign.  We've been fortunate in that we've been too busy to work on our pet projects.  We hope you like our new look, and we appreciate your continuing patience as we continue to augment our content and just generally tweak things here and there over the coming months.
