After graduating from the School of Visual Arts in New York

began developing the kids' e-zine JINX, which went on to be
nominated for Cool Site Design of the Year (by Cool Site of
the Day), in 1996. She has worked on a variety of properties
for children since, including the flagship design of Nick.com,
as well as games for Cartoon Network and AOL/Time Warner. Her
work has been featured in many magazines and articles about
Web design, including Mother Jones, Silicon Alley
Reporter, and Print. Most recently, Ms. Mahoney was
a volunteer with Geekcorps (www.geekcorps.org)
in Accra, Ghana, West Africa, where she taught Web design and
software skills to a local pre-press advertising firm.

Mr. Klimes studied film, video and animation at the School of
Visual Arts in New York. Since then, he has worked on a variety
of digital projects including Wanderlust Interactive's The
