Site Name: Urban Jules
URL: Jules has abandoned the site. The domain name is now owned by another enterprise.
Brooklynite artist "Urban Jules" wanted a site where she could share her experiences in New York City. She regularly updates her blog with images and write-ups. These posts are served up three-to-a-page in chronological order with a pager on the bottom linking to earlier posts. Additionally, a complete archive of her blog posts are accessible through a drop-down menu. Visitors are invited to leave comments regarding each of her blog posts.
A "mini-folio" at the top of the home page automatically flips through miniature versions of Jules' art work. Her full-size portfolio resides on an internal page where viewers can cycle through hew collection in a user-controlled "Lightbox" slide show.
Jules' occasionally has a Random Thought or Random Scribble she would like to share. These are posted in separate blocks in the right sidebar of each page.
An Bookmark & Share button allows visitors to easily spread the word through email, Facebook, Delicious, Digg, Myspace, Google, and Instant Messenger.
Jules shares interesting videos she finds using the embedded video capabilities of the site.
A contact form on the home page allows visitors to send Jules an email directly on the site.
There are links to Jules' Facebook and Twitter account along with an RSS feed so admirers can have her latest updates delivered directly to their desktops.
