We’re really proud to unveil the brand new ThisWeekIn website – quite possibly our most complex WordPress-powered experience yet. We’re launching just in time for the highly anticipated live TWiST event in SXSW on Saturday March 13th in Austin, TX.

ThisWeekIn, Inc. offers a network of video podcasts covering a wide variety of topics from tech to entertainment to social media. Their network of shows includes — ThisWeekIn: Startups; ThisWeekIn: YouTube; ThisWeekIn: Books; ThisWeekIn: Cloud Computing; ThisWeekIn: Twitter; ThisWeekIn: Android; and Kevin Pollak’s Chat Show. They feature guest experts, founders, movie stars, comedians, technologists and CEO’s — all keeping you up to speed on what’s happening this week with a fast and funny style.

What made this site so technically challenging was that it was a combination of seven unique websites (soon to be eight) needing to be fully integrated under one easy to manage CMS. The new site really simplifies and consolidates the ThisWeekIn brand, giving fans quick and easy access to news, updates, and episodes on all 7 shows.

After seeing the final result, Jason Calacanis, Co-Founder of ThisWeekIn, Inc, simply stated, “Wow!”

Huge props to the May team for all the hard work and especially to our jedi code master Matt Simo, who continues to amaze and inspire us with his WordPress finesse, while pushing the envelope with the platform’s capabilities.

Just a brief and very sincere congratulations to our very own Jackie. She and Titus Richard tied the knot last Saturday in a wonderful ceremony here in Wine Country. As you can see from the photo, it was perfect. Thank you for sharing your day with us.

That’s certainly not the first impression I want you to have of May. We’re quite the opposite—motivated, dedicated, and super rad.

Our plan is to partner with companies to help them better promote themselves and market their products and services. We’ll come along side ya, get to know you and your goals-then buckle down and work our magic. We’ll be using our diverse life experiences, nifty design sense, and stellar client communication to meet your needs and have a great time meeting you in the process.

So this first post is to just get the word out that May is officially official. Check back on the regular and expect great things! We’re super excited about the number of projects currently in the works and promise to write regularly to keep y’all in the know of what’s going on.

Make sure to hook up on Twitter and jump on our email list to so we can keep you posted on May’s happenings. We’re amped. Hope you are too :-)
