So, last semester (fall '07) I created the website http://www.davidneedham.net/mm365/paramodal for a standards based web design class at Bradley University. I created the site as part of a cross-class project between the multimedia web design class and an e-commerce business class. An extra bit of the assignment (for bonus points and bragging rights) was to be listed first in a Google search for "aramodal&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US fficial&client=firefox-a"paramodal" by using search engine optimization techniques. I used the online content management system called Drupal and ended up nailing not just first, but second and third placement as well through Digg-ing and blog posting.

Following the end of the semester, I decided to keep ParaModal up so that other classes could demo it if they wanted. I still get emails and instant messages (through Hab.la 's free inline chat system embedded on ParaModal ) and I've even received a phone call from someone about this. They all want to know if ParaModal is a real company, and demand proof before they actually spend the $700 on this futuristic product. If you're reading this in search of a ParaModal hover board, it's fake. You can stop emailing me now. Thanks.

On a side note, the current semester's (spring '08) web design class is also using ParaModal for the same web project. In interest of healthy competition (and again bragging rights) I don't want to lose my top position. You might ask how one improves search engine results. Well, blogging about it with keywords and links (ParaModal ) sure doesn't hurt.

(Sorry Shaun!)
