📅 - Email hosting provider Webmail.us (webmail.us) launched a newly-designed Web site this week, redesigning around principles of simplicity and a more effective means of communicating its message.
Pat Matthews, president and CEO of Webmail.us says much of the influence for the new design came from the e-book "Getting Real" produced by the software company 37signals (37signals.com).
Matthews discussed the influences and the change in a blog posting on the Webmail.us site. He says the site was designed in about 48 hours and implemented in about the same amount of time.
Along with a growing stable of private-label distributors, Webmail.us provides email hosting for more than 14,000 small businesses.
