GreenEnergyTV.com is a Youngstown-based site bringing environmentally conscious information and entertainment to the YouTube generation. The site features both database- and xml-driven dynamic content. New features include comments and rating for the videos and user accounts.

The Center for Working-Class Studies (CWCS) at Youngstown State University (YSU) was the first academic program in the U.S. to focus on issues of work and class. Presenting a broad array of portraits and profiles of America's working class, the site focuses on resources for students, teachers and journalists. Working-class communities can also benefit from the rich galleries and research available on the site.
The new site, launched in January 2009, focuses on Search Engine Optimization (SEO), increasing awareness of programs and events featured by the center, and integration of original feature content within the site design. http://cwcs.ysu.edu is powered by a customized Drupal Content Management System (CMS) installation.

Mahoning Valley Organizing Collaborative (MVOC) needed a site that effectively told the story of their organization and detailed how they are making a difference in neighborhoods throughout the Youngstown and Warren areas, including the impact of their campaigns and the press that has resulted. The site features a donate button and form applications that allow users to volunteer with the MVOC and to RSVP for upcoming events.

Tyler has been the program notes writer for the Tucson Symphony Orchestra since 2006, amassing a catalog of over 150 works, from every era and style.

Tyler transformed what had been a clunky, unattractive site that didn't show off our work well at all to a visually-attractive, highly-functional site that now showcases the resources and projects that reflect our mission and expertise.

Along with appreciating the quality of his work, we have been impressed with Tyler's flexibility. He has developed project proposals and strategies that fit our budget and our not-always-perfectly-defined needs. We especially appreciate that he communicates clearly and regularly and gets the work done on time. - Sherry Linkon, Co-Director
