Hello World 3.0

Welcome to the new i5labs!  Don't mind the dust, we're still moving in and taking the saran wrap off the furniture.  We've wanted to redesign this site for a couple years now, so we're proud to finally bring her to life.  Expect a few tweaks here and there, but the foundation's here, and we can work with this for a while.   We'll be covering major changes soon.  

Let's start with a little history, in case you're new.

i5labs (originally ionami design), was the brain child of CEO Jason Wong. He founded the company in 1999 with a group of fellow Cal grads, hoping to make it big in web development services. Originally, a java shop working with companies such as Epicentric (acquirred by Vignette) and EPSON, we played with a number of different technologies, including ASP, .NET, PHP, Flash and settled on becoming a VERY early adopter of Ruby On Rails. Ten years later, we've added on a few services to the bag of tricks.

Today, i5labs also includes graphic design (web, print, identity, etc), CDN services, and most recently, iPhone App design and dev.  You'll hear more about that later.

Stick around, and you'll learn about our best practices, great tools, exciting projects, and cool stuff out there (there’s TONS of it). We're going to look back, share the present, and keep an eye on the future.
