Build a Sushi Restaurant Website with Sitely

Watch my latest video as I build a sushi restaurant website with the Sitely app. It’s a quick build as I premade the assets (images, sliders) ahead of time. I run though some interesting concepts such as Image/Video Grid, Icons, External Links, and Video on Page Background.

EU Population Projections 2024 Fun Project

So I did a fun project to incorporate 3D and video editing. The idea was to use some form of data that would speak to a story. I stumbled on United Nations data as it was free to use and very comprehensive. After compiling the data, I used Blender and DaVinci Resolve to do some fine editing.

The idea was that the camera would pan through the various EU country populations and it would be stylized for a certain look.

Here are some screens of what the project looks like in Blender. It is 2000 frames in entirety.

I used some cool edits in DaVinci including “Glow” and “Light Rays”. Here are screenshots.

Hope you enjoyed it.

Messaging with ZTEXT

ZTEXT is a newly released web service from ZEE Digital that solves a lot of communications for small businesses. The problem statement is that small businesses do not have a central way send SMS and MMS messages to their guests, customers, subscribers, and members. It is not effective to use a mobile phone to send a company official SMS for many reasons. How about if the employee is on vacation or loses their mobile phone that is used to send the message?

This is where ZEXT comes. With its web portal, businesses can centrally manage their SMS and MMS communications. There is a plethora of features as shown on the ZTEXT website.

In this post, we’ll go through basic way to send SMS messages with the ZTEXT web portal. After your portal instance is provisioned, log into your portal instance and then you arrive at the dashboard. Clicking on Messages will take you to the main Messages page.

Once in the main Messages page, you choose to Compose SMS.

Now you reach the Compose SMS page. From here you can will have to do a couple of easy tasks to send your message. The first is to select the number you are sending the SMS from. Some businesses may want to have multiple numbers for multiple purposes so ZTEXT is equipped to handle this requirement.

The second task is to select which number you want to send to. You can either manually enter the number or you can choose from contacts if you have already entered the contact into the portal.

So then, the third task is to enter your SMS message. And lastly before you click Submit, check your Messaging Compliance to ensure you are appending a compliance message for opt-out. And that’s it!

But wait, there’s more….

As shown on the features list, there is a lot of functionality on ZTEXT that are not covered in the post. For example, if you want to send promotional items to your customers, you can use the built in Canva integration on the ZTEXT portal to develop materials and distribute them. These’s a lot more and also ZTEXT can be customized to your needs.
