In honor of the new Webpress blog MaccAmblings I’ve redesigned and updated my website  with a less stark look and feel. I may eventually adapt more and more of the site to WordPress as I continue to explore its capabilities but his should suffice for now.
As I am not a designer but a web developer, Â among other things, I am reminded of the bumper sticker an Internet consultant in the early 90s used to promote his feelings about the Internet: “Its the Content, Stupid.”
Rather than flaming, spinning logos my intent, from here forward, is to the quality of the information I share. Mixed with fun content, of course!
Stay tuned.
I’ve wanted to set up a blog for some time and integrate it with my website to blend the dynamic nature of web logging with my largely static site. Using a technique I developed at the DVMUG site at dvmug.org we imbedded the ICS calendar into the site with html wizardry using an Iframe tag. This allows one to embed another whole web page into the current page. This strategy works for me.
MacConsulting has been largely about Filemaker programming although my skill set extends deeply into web technologies, MySQL, expertise in OS X and Apple technologies. With the advent of the iPad there are whole new areas of interest in sharing and integrating data for a business user. It’s a whole new world brothers and sisters.
It is so great to have aligned my business with Apple technologies and innovations. The iPhone/iPad platform is a whole new world for developers and many of the Apps I work with each day are iPad capable such as Pages, Tweetdeck, Evernote, IMDB, NPR, Bento from Filemaker, Twitterific, 1Password, NetNewsWire, and on and on.
So stay tuned and I’ll post the latest and greatest as it emerges from the great netherlands of the InterWeb Wonderland.
