done by us! Who else? View the site.
Three Q Catering is a specialist recruitment company for the catering industry. Site was in need of an update to reflect the changing nature of the catering industry in this country, ie. clients are no longer the employers, but the talent – or the staff that are to be placed in the jobs.
When you’re looking for a job, what you want to see is lists of interesting roles to take your fancy and stories about others who have gone there before you so to speak. And that’s what we put into Three Q’s new site…along with loads of lovely gold and innovative calls to action. As with all Brightspark sites you will find yourself reading further into it than your average site and that’s because the content is crafted to capture your attention.

Health Insurance Authority Site

…is crap! It’s a public sector site so you can bet it cost a pretty penny and went through a rigorous selection process. If anyone knows who is responsible for it, please let us know by adding it as a comment below.
Get this for incomprehensible speak – like a typical user, I came in, clicked on ‘switching health insurer’ and was presented with this:
If you switch health insurers and there is no gap in cover (or the gap is less than 13 weeks), there is no upgrade of cover and providing you have served all your waiting period with your old insurer, then the new insurer cannot impose any additional waiting period.
If you have not completed your waiting period with your old insurer, your new insurer must give you credit for the amount of the waiting period that you have served.
If you switch health insurers and there is a gap in cover of more than 13 weeks then you may need to serve a waiting periods as if you have never had insurance before. Different waiting periods apply depending on your particular circumstances.
Does that read well to you? No. It reads well to someone who’s immersed in the jargon of the HIA. It is also grammatically incorrect and missing some words which is totally unprofessional. Who’s the big boss that’s supposed to sign off on this site? Shame on you!
Furthermore, there’s no contact us anywhere on the site, no Irish language, and most of the content is written by some very self important person whose focus is mainly on the authority and not on the user’s needs.
So, if your health insurance policy is up for renewal and you’re looking at what’s available in the market, I suggest you ignore this site and visit the individual sites of the three insurers. There is one thing that’s right on the HIA site and that’s an image of an orange and an apple – cliched image, but definitely applies in this case where you’re trying to compare policies.

WEEE Ireland Website
July 6, 2006 at 10:45 am
We’ve just finished a new site for WEEE Ireland, the body that is charged with administering the EU Directive on waste electronic material. To you and me it’s the body that gathers the €20 we spend whenever we buy anything with a plug and battery. But to the environment, it’s the body that is making Ireland a greener place. All those €20 are spent on dismantling old electrical equipment, and recycling the parts that are recyclable.
The site itself is gorgeous! No, I’m not in the mood for holding back on modesty today. It’s a corporate site alright, but it’s got a fun feel to it with the use of the icons on the home page. Also, it’s a great example of a site that houses large amounts of content but yet has a very airy feel. Go on and have a look and then come back to me: www.weeeireland.ie
Another feature to note is the “find your local recycling depot”. The client provided lists of local authorities around the country with contact details and opening hours and needed a solution of how to present this info. We created a nice Flash map where you can click on your county and get all the info presented to you in a nice box on the left. A nice example of how Flash can work better than a thousand words!
And finally…a member of the WEEE Ireland team has been trained in how to maintain this site using Dreamweaver. They regularly have new content and downloads to add to the site, so it’s useful for them to have the skills in-house to do it.
All up? A nice looking site, well written – but working within a requisite amount of legal speak. A few funky features, and a happy client!
