"I was visiting your [Aircell] website the other
day
as part of my work for Boeing and was very impressed.
Please pass along kudos to the person responsible.
Besides the visual appeal of your site,
it was loaded with good information that was easy to find."

For several years Tobias worked on Aircell's public and private websites. Work included two branding redesigns of the private Aircell Dealers site through the years. Tobias also led the team that redesigned and reengineered the public Aircell site, which the company has since revised to match their current brand identity. Underneath, the public Aircell site was partially a web application, which used an online MySQL database to dynamically generate pages. Authorized personnel in the Customer Service, Human Resources, and Marketing departments could control their own web content. Using menus and simple forms, they entered and updated database content - without web programming knowledge or assistance. Tobias provided Aircell with content, code, and webmaster services for many years, continuing now as their photographer and consultant.
"Aircell has a new website with a feature we
think is pretty nifty -
they have included their past presentations
that have been given at tradeshows, conferences, etc."

Another major web project was the design and deployment of a sophisticated online database for the Boulder Writers Alliance.

The BWA online database included the following features, shown in the Tobias-produced documentation:
- Online registration and payment form to join or renew membership.
- Searchable membership database. Employers can search for qualified members by name, city, or professional skills.
- Numerous customizable reports. For example, mailing lists or comprehensive membership and treasurer's reports.

Additionally, Tobias designed a variety of websites and web services applications, which were then developed by First American Proxix Solutions.
