Writing Documents in Joomla

More and more clients provide us with MS Word .doc format file documents to go up on their websites. Sort of deja vu. Makes me remember the ole days of the ’90s when web mastering meant hand coding content into plain html files and ftp-ing them up to the server.

Fortune 1000 Networks - Bot Victims, How about Alabama and Mississippi?

Spam and phishing infestation is not restricted to home users’ poorly protected computers running Windows. Common wisdom says these are making a reap harvest for the malicious code writers.

It’s been such an old hat to blog again (and again) about the super dooper advantages of getting your software out of the box. Many IT advising bloggers waste efforts to convince business owners of the superiority of OSS (Open Source Software) compared to proprietary solutions.

Starving Junk Mail with The *nix Ecosystem on the Desktop

Faye is painting and moving the office to a new building. The old one nearby, serving CADTEk since 1992, is also getting a facelift (big time renovating, painting, redecorating, etc.) and will shortly open with a ’surprise’ shop, shhh…

The Vintage Mac, New VirtueMart and YouTube to Jumpstart Sales

 Doh, three weeks to catch up, here we go:
1. Simple Joomla/VirtueMart routines
Three new Joomla installs in a weektime. I see nothing challenging with this state-of-the-art CMS. Unless you have to integrate a shop data base of several thousands items that relate through several… tens of thousands categories, mostly redundant on items. The challenge, as […]

Weekend Rants: Downgrade to Outlook 2007

1. Bare bones mailouts
Windows Vista is gradually taking hold of the casual desktop or laptop. It brings quite a heap of surprises at the graphic user interface level and less improvements down inside at the security level. One noticeable issue has already grown in a scandal of sorts concerning the Outlook 2007 HTML rendering […]

Software Lifecycle Management, Web Applications: Users Wonder but don’t Trust

Wrapping up another busy week. Monday finally got the GO to rebuild a 4 year old website we did in 2003. The customer is so content with it. “Why upgrade? It looks OK, just do this content updates here and there once in a while.” All our talking about internet security hazards went plainly […]

Poster Sites v. Dynamic Content on the Web

Faye pinged at me with a mail about doing a ‘web page’ for a new client. When I use to hear the words ‘web page’ referring to the action of building a web site, then I tell myself we’re on for a new round of web-ABC. So here we go:

Excerpts from a SEO do-it-yourself brainstorming

This week came in with the launching of yet another Joomla web site. Having the site installed, configured and opened to the public is like filling the docks with water around a new ship. It still requires a tonload of details to be implemented and tested, and another pile of processes to get running on […]

About

Georg first started with programming in 1981. Did some machine engineering between 1985 and 1990. Then wasted an entire decade on DTP (Desktop Publishing), pre-press and printing. Since 2000, Georg escaped the Gutenberg territory to focus on web sites development and on-demand software applications programming. Don’t tell Georg that software comes in a box…
