About this site

The current version of LifeChurch.tv website was launched in February 2008. A core focus of this new site and design was to become standards-compliant, improve the usability, and move away from the Microsoft super power and into the light of the LAMP.
The Tech Side of Things

LifeChurch.tv is powered by Kohana, a powerful PHP 5 framework and is hosted at SoftLayer.com. Team Digerati built the site using these tools:

* Apple Computers (for everything)
* Coda (coding and development)
* Transmit (file transfer)
* CSS Edit (awesome stylesheets)
* iTerm (ssh and svn)
* Novamind Pro (database design and site mapping)
* Firebug (Javascript debugging goodness)

The Design Side of Things

* Our whiteboard walls (ideas become reality)
* The Moleskin (need we say more)
* Adobe Photoshop (for design)
* xScope (for measuring)

Services

We use many different services and here are the ones we recommend.

* Springloops (svn management)
* Basecamp (project management)
* Feedburner (manages all RSS feeds)
* Wufoo (a great form builder)
* Fellowship One (online giving, church stuff)

We hope you enjoy the site. We recommend you view it with Safari or Firefox."

It is a nice idea & very good looking site.
Not one of the top .tv's so far though in my view but we all get excited at different type of sites.


Personally the best site i can think of that launched lately is the brilliant www.RedSari.tv which is a great concept, site looks great & the opening video is as good as anything you would see on/offline. IMHO
