Oyster website goes Beek!
My little brainstorm this morning was to show off some examples of really clever websites and tricks used by local businesses. I knew Pip and Jacqui at Oyster would be an easy bet first up!

Why I like it?
It tells a story, making what you offer unique. This site comes across in a genuine and personal way, it shares a little bit about Pip and Jacqui and their philosopy and is authentic – just like their products.
Beek! -I’d never heard of this one before but there are quite a few of these panoramic viewer tools around, you might be more familiar with them being used in real estate. It seems to be a really quick and easy way to navigate around the shop and to make your site more interactive.
Online shopping -Pip and Jacqui have given online shopping a go – and you have got to be in to win! They have quite a basic approach and are not using any specialist software – but it is very well explained and to be honest looks like it could be less hassle than some of the forms you sometimes have to trawl through.
Finally they used a local company! Bluebubble Design. I would have missed it had I not been trying to work out what Beek was. From what I can gather Bluebubble is owned by local Petone web developer and artist Aime McCarron.
Well done guys.
