“My personal contacts with Brendan O'Keefe have always yielded very exciting, world-class results. I continue to work with Brendan on an ongoing basis and anticipate that our creative collaborations will carry on.

With Brendan's able assistance we pulled together a very striking myspace page that attracts a very interesting group of people at http://www.myspace.com/skyaak Brendan has given my company a hand up in Australia where he is very well established. Thanks to our co-operative effort my flying toy Skyaak has reached the sunny shores of Melbourne and as proof positive we have organized professional photo-documentation on the ground. Very exciting, swingin' dude to brainstorm with as well! This guy has ideas that are deep and wide, rich with potential. Most of all though Brendan is warm-spirited and generous with his creative genius with any given project.

Brendan comes very highly recommended as a sincere, kindred spirit who is driven to seek the coolest conceptual framework with clarity in mind. All of his websites share a common visual clarity that is his signature design form. With great admiration and gratitude, Michael Gaudet President Skyaak Enterprises Resort Village of Manitou Beach, SK., Canada.” July 14, 2007

I got this call and I get a lot of those, but this one was different. This guy, by the name of Bendan O'keefe wanted to help our organization, (we publish a street paper that employs homeless - members of the International Network of Street papers). Ok I said, "we need a website."

So he did it!

He came to our office in a taxi, with his future wife and saw our modest operation. He didn't ask for anything. He just helped out. I am still amazed today at his willingness, his efficiency, his creativity, but mostly at his heart.

Thanks Brendan for helping the Jeepney. The first street paper in developing Asia.

"Brendan was most helpful with so many great ideas when we were developing several websites for our programs within youth homelessness. Brendan also was instrumental in supporting us to set up a SMS system to assist us to remain in contact with our clients. This was a very unique idea and when the system was up & running was considered one of the most successful tools we used to stay in touch with clients. Brendan is flexible, credible, diverse in his thinking and on the whole got us on track". March 27, 2006

"One of the core principles behind MetaMemes and ThinkCube is to bring people and ideas together. I have been meaning to start a social network around ThinkCube for over a year. We finally have it up and running, check it out:
http://thinkcube.ning.com

We developed this on Ning which is a great platform for creating social networks. It is very easy to get up and running quickly. Brendan O’Keefe set up the network and was the graphic designer behind making the network look professional. I wanted to formally thank him for such a nice job and that he managed to fit it in around getting married – congratulations Brendan and thanks for the help! He is a great designer and as he describes himself as a ‘creative generalist’. April 2008
