Company co-founder Michael Weiss was quoted on BNET as saying: "The Internet as a means to distribute information is truly remarkable.

We are extremely proud to be working with an organization whose mission it is to use the Internet to promote understanding, diversity and acceptance of others."[1]
The firm has also won multiple Web Awards, EMMAs, and Davey Awards.
History
The company was founded by Kevin Howard Goldberg, Michael Weiss, and Marcelo Ziperovich in 1997, as the Internet boom was beginning its rise.
After operating out of one of the founder's second bedroom for six months, the company obtained office space on Abbot Kinney Boulevard in Venice, California. For eight years, imagistic rose and fell with the Internet boom and bust.
During its boom, Los Angeles Business Journal[2] named imagistic #4 of the top 100 fastest-growing private companies. After the company had reached thirty employees in 2001, the industry fell to pieces. In 2005, after two rounds layoffs and Ziperovich's departure, Goldberg and Weiss relocated the company.[3]
Now located in Westlake Village, California, imagistic maintains partnerships with Web content management companies CrownPeak, Ektron, Microsoft, and PaperThin.
In fall 2008, Kevin Howard Goldberg's book, XML: Visual QuickStart Guide (2nd Edition), will be published by Peachpit Press. The first edition of the book was written by Elizabeth Castro. In January 2010, Kevin authored an article about CodeIgniter (an open source PHP MVC Framework) on the IBM developerworks site[4].
As a frequent judge for the Stevie Awards and speaker at annual seminars held at the Nonprofit Technology Network Conference, Michael Weiss is frequently quoted on the topic of Web development. In 2006, he was quoted in BusinessWeek [5] on the benefits of hiring a Web developer.
