Tierra is happy to announce that Latin America expert Shannon O’Neil’s website just received a 2013 W3 Interactive Gold award in the Genera Website – Publishing category.
Cheers to our designers Heidi Adams, developer Gerard Gualberto, and project manager Melissa Wolff who worked hard to launch the redesigned site ahead of Shannon’s recent book tour for Two Nations Indivisible.

2013 Webbys honor 4 Tierra projects
Posted by jamie | April 19, 2013
Three major projects that Tierra designed and built for The Poetry Foundation have been recognized by the Webbys this year.
The multi-award winning POETRY app was a nominee in the running for this year’s best mobile app in the Education & Reference category. Now’s your chance to show your love of POETRY. Cast your vote in the Webbys People’s Voice Awards.
The Poetry Foundation’s website, which features the organization’s vast database of poetry, and the Poetry Out Loud website, which supports a national recitation contest co-sponsored by the National Endowment for the Arts, were named as honorees.
The CW Network app was also a Webby honoree in the Entertainment category for tablets and other mobile devices. Tierra enabled these full-episode streaming video apps to be published from the core Tierra-built CMS that powers CWTV.com. Our work supported Phunware and Digitalsmiths as well as the WBTV Digital Media and CBS groups, who led this project.

Awards for our 10th Anniversary
Posted by jamie | October 10, 2012
What a great way to celebrate Tierra’s 10th anniversary in business last month. While we were busy re-launching The CW website, we received news that two of our projects were honored with Silver W3 Awards in mid-September.
Even better — one of them was for this (Tierra’s own) website, which we re-launched a few months ago. Hats off to our team that worked on the ‘responsive’ re-design: Gerard Gualberto, Jennifer Over, Heidi Adams and Melissa Wolff.
The second award was for CWingo — a web-based, bingo-type game synced to on-air CW show broadcasts. We collaborated with our friends at Warner Bros. to build CWingo in late 2011 and the game was used throughout last season. It will make a re-appearance this season as well with some upgrades.
So, here’s to the last 10 years of successful collaborations with our clients! Onto the next 10!
Game yourself into good habits

If you want to maintain good habits or break unhealthy ones, check out Habit List, a beautiful (and effective) new iPhone app developed by our very own Gerard Gualberto.
The app — which is iOS 6 and iPhone 5 ready — “turns your desired habits into a game you play against yourself, and it works!” (twelvetyVA, a happy customer)
Using streaks, reminders, progress tracking and other nice features, the app is really intuitive and fun to use.
In the App Store, Habit List receives high marks and has been ranked as the #3 productivity app in recent months. Download it today and start becoming the better person you know you want to be.
