WebSolvers is thrilled to share with you the launch of a new responsive website for East End Market, a venture we are very excited about. East End Market is a “neighborhood market and cultural food hub inspired by Central Florida’s local farmers and food artisans.” Selfishly, we are excited that East End Market, slated to open soon, will be only a couple of minutes from our Orlando office in Baldwin Park.
The site itself can be seen below, shown in a desktop -and- mobile view. If you are interested in learning more about responsive web design, feel free to read our short blog post on the subject. In short, it’s a way to built a website that automatically adapts to the device (whether desktop, tablet, or mobile) your user chooses.
Most importantly, we are grateful for the kind words that the client shared with us about his team’s experience working with WebSolvers:
I do know that it has been overwhelmingly positive and the launch was the largest viral traffic to our Facebook page we’ve seen. Big thanks to your team for the timely manner with which they delivered the site. With most of our time spent on the farm, in the kitchen and on the go, we needed a design firm that could quickly synthesize the multifaceted nature of our business into a cohesive and thoughtful whole. In short order WebSolvers designed and launched a beautiful new virtual home for our market that digitally embodies the same attention to quality and artisan aesthetic that we champion in the Good Food movement.
Bravo and Bon Appétit!

Pickify is an iPhone app that helps you get feedback from your friends on important (or unimportant) choices that you face.
Some of the best ideas come from simply observing the world around us and taking note. Our client, Dr. Rick Ross, is a prime example.
Rick is a doctor of optometry (he happens to be optometrist to the Orlando Magic) and has observed an interesting phenomenon with his patients. ”I have been noticing that patients who were unsure about which eyeglasses looked good on them would ask their friends for feedback. Interestingly enough, they would take pictures of themselves wearing different pairs of glasses and e-mail them to friends and family to get their opinion.” It was in observing this very trend that Pickify was born.
Pickify is a free app for people who want to get outside feedback on a decision they are facing. It could be what dress to wear, what food to eat, or where to go on vacation. Pickify users poll friends, family, and strangers on everything from what drapes look better with a rug to whether Lebron James is a better basketball player than Kobe Bryant.
Pickify can be downloaded from the Apple App Store and is free to download and use. We are also proud to announce that our work on the app was recognized with an Orlando Addy Award.
For a preview, here are a few screen shots that demonstrate how the app works.
Users can login with Facebook, Twitter, or with a valid e-mail address.
Adding a new poll is easy. Just take a picture (or add one from your camera roll) for each option you want to poll and click ‘Share.’
The options you arrive at are presented to your friends side-by-side. They can select the option they favor by selecting the corresponding check mark.
The voting results are displayed for you to see in simple percentages.
Your friends can also comment on your poll if they want to give you additional feedback.
For more information on Pickify, please visit the Pickify website (seen below) or download directly from the Apple App Store.
