chromatic.net: erik gibb's professional stuff: portfolio overview
This portfolio is easier on the eyes in the flesh, as most of my documentation is meant to be printed. This page contains a sample of my more interesting projects from multiple companies. You can also view my portfolio by company:

"Moz' Home" (Netscape Intranet Navigator)
- company: Netscape
- type: ia / design / html / javascript
- description: Moz' Home was a "remote control" for the entire Netscape Intranet (which consisted of several hundred grassroots sites, in addition to the official sites our team maintained). It incorporated web and company directory searches, hierarchial category navigation, scrolling news, mouseover help, and a ton of cool eye candy. The other point of this project was to showcase the client-side bells and whistles added to the 4.0 series of browsers.
