Your eyes will pop when you see how easily you can safely & securely access your data through a web browser. That means, you can log in to a password protected area and add, edit, delete, sort & print your crucial information, 24/7/365, from anywhere you have an Internet connection.

Let the office come to you. Using PHP/mySQL, we will build you a custom, secure database application to your exact specifications. You don't need any particular web skills - if you can point and click in a browser (and type!) that's all the knowledge you'd need. Really. We've managed and reshaped data for large corporations, educational institutions and small businesses. We've built online school archives; detailed legal dockets; high-end contact management apps; family trees; threaded discussion forums; blogs - you name it. If you're using MS Access - good news! That can just as easily be queried and updated via a web browser.

Carmody Information Design Studio was recently selected by the Corcoran Gallery of Art to design and program a Flash-based multimedia kiosk application as part of the Corcoran's groundbreaking American Evolution show, celebrating 19th century landscape artist Albert Bierstadt, using PHP/mySQL, XML and ActionScript 3. It's still playing in one of America's finest galleries, come on down and check it out.
