Description:

This site provides tips on designing and developing websites and administering the computers they run on and the networks ofwhich they are a part. It includes tutorials on several topics.These were written mostly in 2001 and 2002. Much has changed since then,but the basics are largely the same. I've tried to order the topics fromthe least dated to the most dated.I hate the "Home Page". It's supposed to be the most importantpage on a site but I've never figured out what to do with it. Forbig sites that change constantly, it's an ideal place to highlightnew stories, features, topics, products, or whatever. My sitedoesn't change quickly enough for that kind of use. The What's New page serves this function muchbetter and is the page any repeat visitors really should book mark.Some sites use a home page as an essential menu page to help usersfind their way around the site. I'd like to think I have the mostcomprehensive and usable navigation aids of any site I know, as astandard part of every page. I do use the home page as a menu but asthe content increases, and what I say about each section linked tofrom the home page decreases, the home page increasingly looks like a rehash of the site map.I know that most visitors don't enter the site through the home page.Those that do seem to be mostly return users who've booked marked thehome page. At least very few who start with the home page have a referrerand I'm not sure what else might account for this. All search engineresults and links from other sites lead to specific content pages andnot the home page.The book, Guide to Building an AssociationWeb Site, will never be completed. More or less completedsections are on-line. Clearly interests in security and open sourceproducts pushed aside things I planned to do when I first set out onmy own.
