PeoplePods powers MediaBugs.org and the Helsinki Design Lab
Posted by benbrown 1 year ago
April saw the launch of two brand new PeoplePods-powered applications. These new sites use the latest version of PeoplePods - 0.8 - which will be available to download at the end of May. MediaBugs.org uses PeoplePods to enable Bay Area residents to report errors in their local media. The site weaves together several content types to allow for rich, detailed bug reports. It also uses PeoplePod's built-in content querying mechanisms to allow members to track changes to individual bugs as well as tracking bug activity by publication or subject. Helsinki Design Lab is an organization in Finland whose goal is to collect, publish and promote information about the new field of strategic design. PeoplePods powers the site's complex submission process, as well as a suite of backend tools used by the team at HDL to craft their amazing library of case studies.
