Scott and Geoff have been working together for 15 years, first as co-founders of Hopscotch Media (1997), a Web agency, and subsequently as co-founders of both ShopLocal (1999) and Timelines (2007).
For ShopLocal they designed SalesHound.com, a consumer site aggregating local sales and specials, and the industry-leading SmartCircular which is
now used by every major retailer in the country to present local, print-based promotions to consumers on the Web.
For Timelines, Geoff and Scott developed a number of consumer products including LifeSnapz.com, a site to help families record and share life events, The World History Project, a site for discovering, recording, and sharing history, and Photogram, an iPhone app allowing users to easily and creatively share moments with friends and family (with over 300,000 downloads so far).
They also developed Timelines SE, a cost-effective service for newspapers to aggregate and present photos, videos, and articles about events to readers using timelines and maps (a finalist in the 2010 Chicago Innovation Awards). Timelines SE customers included Boston Globe, New York Daily News, Chicago Sun-Times, Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, St. Louis Post-Dispatch, and Minnesota Star Tribune.
As independent contractors they designed and developed solutions for Windstream Communications, Kraft Foods, Buena Vista International, Dow Chemical, First Analysis, and many other smaller companies.
