Stagecoach Designs is a pretty eco-conscious company. All our lights are CFLs, we used recycled paper in our printers, our computers and servers all using energy-saving settings, but this week when I was shopping for supplies, I think I took it a step further. (more…)
With less than two weeks to the U.S. election, I find myself in New Mexico on sabbatical, and it’s hard not to get caught up in the McCain-Obama excitement. I know that you just recently had an election up in Canada, too (though Stephen Harper never got invited to guest star on SNL. Go figure). With all this continental election fever, I’ve been contemplating the mix between business and politics quite a bit, lately. How can an election affect your business’s brand?

According to a recent study completed by the fine people that make the Opera browser:
Opera also ran the pages indexed by MAMA through the W3C’s validation tools to see how many conform with standards. The results show that only 4.13 percent are valid.
Every site designed by Stagecoach Designs passes the XHTML 1.1 validity test. That means every one of our clients is part of this 4.13%!
Compling with web standards is important to us, since it insures that even without revision websites designed by Stagecoach will be cross-browser compatible, and stand up to coding standard changes far longer than most websites.
To learn more about Stagecoach Designs coding standards, and how we do business, check out the Methods & Values section of our website, and be sure to stop by and visit us at our storefront location at 249 King St. W in Dundas, Ontario!
This summer, I started running again. After a few weeks of pushing too hard and burning out, I found the Couch-to-5K running program:

Designed to get slackers like me into running without burning out from overexertion, the Couch-to-5K program was ideal for my particular situation. By starting slow and building up, I found myself enjoying running, and even promoting this program to my friends and family.
This week brings the Stagecoach Designs storefront back to normal hours!
9am to 5pm, Monday through Friday, you can find us at the store at 249 King St W in Dundas. Stop by and see us!
Starting October 27th, we’ll have apple cider and Halloween treats for everyone who stops by!
