TeeBeeDee: the social network for boomers
TeeBeeDee was an online social networking platform for the over forty market. Members exchanged experiences, shared wisdom and connect with one another. I was the Senior Information Architect at TeeBeeDee and I also was the manager for the visual design team. During my year at TeeBeeDee I contributed to the following projects and features:
♦ Personal Messaging
♦ Member Groups
♦ TeeBeeDee Scripts
♦ Profile Enhancements
♦ Browsing Members
This effort also included a major site redesign that moved TeeBeeDee from a traditional Table of Contents organization to a user generated tag based navigation.

I have included highlights from the personal messaging center and the site redesign
