Hardware and Software Requirements For Making Websites

[ad_1] A little while ago my old laptop needed replacing, it was over 3 years old and the battery had a 10 minute charge life and the charger was needing to be replaced. A quick visit to eBay and for less than $500 Australian a new Toshiba laptop was delivered.About the same time I visited a friend who had spent over $1,500 Australian on a laptop from a large electrical retailer. My friend mainly uses the laptop to check emails and create simple word documents, I was thinking that maybe a $1,500 laptop was extravagant to their needs.As a web page designer and article writer I feel that my $500 laptop completes my tasks with complete ease.Most visitors to my Making Website Blog are beginning their learning path, my blog covers...

When Good Computers Go Bad

[ad_1] Remember the day that you got your new computer (or the hand-me down from Uncle Larry) and you pulled that shiny case out of the box? Once you finally had all of the cables properly mangled into an unmanageable ball, you powered on, the screen lit up and off you went. The PC was fast, programs loaded in the blink of an eye, and Internet surfing was a breeze.

Web 2.0 For The Uninitiated

[ad_1] If you read anything on web design and website maintenance, you've likely heard the term Web 2.0 thrown around. Is the world wide web getting an upgrade? What's going on?The term Web 2.0 is somewhat of a misnomer. With software, new versions are released where bugs are fixed and features are added. The web (and the internet as a whole) is not released in such stages. Instead, it evolves intermittently as time goes on. There's no new version that's coming out soon. Instead, it is constantly changing. Instead of new features there are new trends. You may have one website implementing a certain feature one week, fifteen the next week and hundreds a week later.
