Eventually, whole directories of links started to be built, like
the early Yahoo directory. These [...]

change. Change may be for good or for disaster. Printing is on
the run and on top of the list for a business and marketing
promotion. To have nice prints and nice colors, inks are
responsible for that. Without inks, printing would never be

Say It Again Sam, Don’t Pay it Again: The Case For Usably Stated Usability
Posted on Feb.13, 2009, under Web Design No Comments
User-centered Design is not brain surgery. Noted usability specialist Steve Krug
summed it up best in his well-regarded usability bible “Dont Make Me Think!,”
the very title of which says it all as elegantly and eloquently as this website
producer has ever heard it put. Its not such a difficult concept. People

Build it and they will come is not always true; you have to form a relationship with the company before you will get quality attendees
or participants for a free service.
The key to a human’s heart is through food. The key to a web surfer is free information and products. Simply offering free information is not enough to bring visitors to your site. The offering has to have substance and also be worthwhile. The web surfer is constantly asking, “What is [...]

Well, early last week I went hunting for something that would be my help desk and give me live support. I had some pretty strict requirements because I am not always sitting [...]

Posted on Dec.30, 2008, under Web Design No Comments
Oh great google. Ruler of all search engines. Seeker of
all hidden text and links. Checker of all links reciprocal and
inbound. Crawler of all web pages big and small. Writer of crazy

is so rich and unique, that even I don’t know what it is about.
I don’t ask for much. I don’t [...]
