Congrats to lucky submission number 167 belonging to Jen (@jlhenn) for being the winner of the very first EVRD giveaway and the now proud owner of a Flip HD Camera. You can view her winning submission here. Thanks to everyone that participated. We couldn’t have asked for a better launch day. Check back to the site over the next few days to see your submissions on the front page. And keep submitting. We love the stuff you guys generate. I’d be lying if I said we didn’t enjoy seeing everything you come up with.

The EVRD Network Has Launched

The EVRD network was created as an extension/addition to Everything Random, a project started by Rivik Media. Everything Random has been running for almost two years now, and it has been a hell of a ride. From being started as an experiment and somewhat of a joke to it seeing over 60,000 people in a single day. We have been trying to expand and grow the site but have hit a physical limitation. Everything Random is hosted by tumblr (one of the best blogging platforms out there) but the site and our ideas have outgrown the hosted platform. We wanted to have more control and freedom to build new features for our visitors. Thus creating EVRD.

EVRD is a self hosted wordpress site that will become the new ‘main site’. Wordpress allows for a large, feature rich, and organized site. We will be creating new and (hopefully) better features on EVRD and allow for more user interaction. You can check here or on the official EVRD blog for updates.

Everything Random will remain on tumblr and stay unchanged. It will still be updated regularly and function the same as it always have.

*note: this is not meant to be a bash on tumblr in any way, so don’t take it that way.

We’re Leaving On a Jet Plane….

To Internet Summit 09. Rivik Media will be in attendance this week, November 4th and 5th, at the 2009 Internet Summit in Raleigh, NC. The Internet Summit is one of the largest internet tech conferences in the US. Speakers from ESPN.com, Technorati, Pandora, and Google (to name a few) will all be presenting the growing trends in online technology.

Personally, I’m looking forward to the panel discussion about cloud computing. Rivik Media has long advocated the use of cloud computing in the small business structure. Hopefully we can learn more to make this solution even more useful to our clients. There will also be interesting discussions on social media and online advertising. All in all this should be an informative and worth while trip for the Rivik Media team.

We are even on the official guest list along side the likes of Microsoft, Google, and Pandora to name a few.

We have been very busy over the past few months building websites, launching new IT infrastructures, and helping clients in any way possible. Now that our company has grown, it is time for a website to display all the great work our team has done. Take a few minutes to look around and let us know what you think.
