Nellad – for Sydsvenskan @ Josh
Nellad was a video community for teenagers in the Skåne area of Sweden. The Swedish newspaper Sydsvenskan wanted to have a youth community and the goal was to get all kids playing in garage bands to have their bands on Nellad. In the beginning the site was popular, thanks to a band contest arranged by Sydsvenskan, but after the contest was over, the interest dropped. Nellad couldn’t compete with the larger sites with similar functionality, such as MySpace, and is now closed down.
In this project I implemented most of the functionality, customizing the XCAP modules to work for Nellad, trying to make the front-end coders’ work as easy as possible. I handled releases and servers and built functionality to make existing content from Sydsvenskan and cms content seamlessly integrate with the community.
