we are building

What is a blog worth if its not filled with bloggable events? Nothing! As such and with a little delay I herewith follow my personal New Year´s Resolutions and (re)start to fill this project´s blog with sense and life. So, what happened the last nine month (mate, can´t believe how fast times passes by)?

• Projekktor got featured on WEBM ´s home.
• We saw stunning startups using Projekktor as framework for content playout.
• The player got implemented to the web presence  of germany´s most popular news service.
• The project became a commercial base for 3rd party companies like DMXZone - btw: they create stunning Dreamweaver-Plugins. Go, take a look.
• The blokes at Artetics built nice little plugin using Projekktor to provide HTML5 video to Joomla.
• We started a spin-off in cooperation with porkhead.org – it did a rocket launch: Speakker … it became a story for its own.

So, what can you expect from this projekkt in the near future? Right now there are two major jobs in progress. The most important one is still ProjekktorXL You thought it´s dead, didn´t you? Well, we are working hard on it and you can bet that we´ll keep you updated.

Btw: Did I say “keep you updated”? Well, in case you´re on this “Facebook”-thingy feel free to join our chit chat at Projekktor´s Facebook HQ .

The other projekkt is our upcoming “media player design platform”. As our beloved Speakker example shows, with the help of Projekktor you can morph almost any HTML-layout into ubercool media player regardless if for video or audio or both. Unfortunately a fact that wasn´t communicated very well in the past. So we´ve decided to break some shit and push things into the right direction. I wouldn´t say that the outcome will be groundbreaking. But if we will be able to provide  a useful tool for designers allowing them to build a web based media interface without taking care of the technical stuff we could be satisfied.

Stay tuned!
