| A Coat of Arms was used for centuries to display a family's specific trades, professions, or achievements. Today, websites have replaced the Coat of Arms when it comes to advertising these trades or professions. This is because websites are easily accessible to the public and are affordable to produce to the masses; this is what Digital Arms Design is all about. Digital Arms Design is a web design company that offers affordable, quality, and information based websites to businesses or organizations.

Summer UpdatePosted By: Ryan
September 1st, 2009
I'd like to give you an update before heading back to Trent University for my final year in their Computer Science program. Also, I should mention work on Digital Arms Design Projects are still underway, although most are comprised of making updates and modifications to current websites. When that work is completed I'll see if they can be added to the Projects page, or at least showcased in a blog post so you can check out my new work. This isn't me stating I'm not interested in creating new and unique websites, it's just those projects haven't been arriving in my inbox these last few months.
This past summer I've been working with the Small Business Centre, where most of my time was spent working on their Summer Company Program. The Summer Company Program allows students returning to school between the ages of 15 and 29 to start their own company of their choosing for the summer. This is the very program that I enrolled in back in 2006 where I started Digital Arms Design as my small business. Now it should be mentioned for the past two summers after graduating from the program I did volunteer as a mentor in the program, but this year I got to be more involved and work on more than just the mentoring process. This year in the program the Small Business Centre had twenty-five students in the program, running businesses of all kinds including landscaping, children's entertaining, horse training, photography & design, and console repair to just name a few. As is the case with most years, many of the students will continue their business after the completion of the program just like I did three years ago.
My work at the Small Business Centre was a great experience and I made some great connections throughout the summer months. Anyways that is all for now, I will update the Digital Arms Design Twitter account when interesting tidbits pop up and before long I'll have another blog post. Until then, have a great September and feel free to email if you have any questions: ryan@digitalarmsdesign.com
