Toronto Agencies

Some of my fave Toronto agencies:

• Playground Inc
• Huge Inc
• Grip Limited

Other agencies that have come out with really good work:

• Sapient Nitro
• Jacknife a.k.a. Oxygen
• Concrete
• Arc and Co.

And if you're looking for an experience as opposed to just a website, these agencies are the best at that:

• Jam3
• Secret Location

Thanks so much @vazquez! Are these all Toronto?

Yes! I just updated the Heading above

Scope update!

With mofo working on an MLN-wide (clubs + all fellows groups potentially) theme and stack we could leverage in the future, we're going to focus this redesign on two areas.

1. UI/UX refresh of mozillascience.org
   • main goals [in progress]
     • creating an easy to navigate site with clear ways to get involved
     • accurately reflects our current offerings
     • work with broader mofo on the brief -- see if we can start to align with the MLN-wide theming work in progress
   • constraints
     • no change to our current backend
     • keep our current wordpress blogging system while we explore shared stack options with mofo
2. Collaborate redesign (& potential rewrite)
   • main goals [in progress]
     • fold in guides and learning resources
     • spur contributorship

Update: next steps with bocoup would be to share the current design brief (OK to be in progress) with them, and hop on a call. @acabunoc - they're jess @ bocoup.org + brian @ bocoup.org . Let me know if you need any help!

@acabunoc can we close this?
