OVERVIEW

Execution

Online match-making portals served as the inspiration for the microsite. From the first screen in the pop-up module experience, users select attributes from dropdown menus, describing what they’re looking for in a server. A results page with “potential matches” lets users narrow down their server search. Server “profile” pages are written from the p5 server’s point of view, to try to entice their potential mate. Humorous photo montages put the servers in fun and all too human-like situations, all designed to provoke a laugh and get IT managers thinking about what they really want in a server.
