CLIENT NEWS
AFAR magazine was named one of the most notable launches of 2009. After we developed the editorial blueprint, Susan West signed on as Editor-in-Chief, assembled and trained the editorial team, and produced the magazine's first three issues. West Gold also directed production of the company's Web site and blog. Susan is now back at West Gold.

We recently soft-launched Science for Citizens, a fun site that enables the general public to "do science." Help us test the beta site.
