Spoilt by Shatner

We had an idea of a couple of things we wanted to work on so we did just that.

As a bit of fun in the office, we decided to build an experimental site to show our love of the big man's singing.

As a forray into the world of HTML5, font replacement and Twitter fun, we built this in a day and a half as a development learning tool that was fun for us as a day off!

Powered by a simple database of popular songs with titles, artists and a "hint" lyric it's easy to update and expand on the selections when we want and we always look at suggestions from Twitter followers.

We figured it would be a useful experiment and something we could share with the world through Tweeting votes. It's been ticking along nicely and it's surely only a matter of time before @williamshatner uses the votes as the basis for his next album...!
