Aha!

Aha!  My friends at Macserve.net have for the moment solved my audio and video server dilemma.  This means I hope to start uploading podcasts next week.  Or at least trial files.  If you are looking for a great web hosting company, macserve.net is it.  And yes, they are Apple Xserver based with geographical mirror sites.  The servers are just always up.  And the owner still answers the phone! Rates are as competitive and reasonable as they come.  Inquire about their rates. Don't let the old website stated rates deter you.  But enough advertising....

In the iWeb and website updating wars, iWeb in iLife 08 has exhibited some strange behavior. Rollovers and link indicators that work in iWeb but do not once uploaded into the live website.  That is all cured, but I had to re-input the text for each of those menu links.

Fantastic meeting/web conferencing tool was used today.  Our MCA-I association is having a Leaders meeting in Dallas and I was invited to attend in the virtual world.  Video. Audio. Chat. Live screen of host CPU with PPT if included in the speaker's presentation.  All real time.  All free.  Yes, ads all over, but not invasive.  What great technology.  Thanks to Todd O'Neill of San Antonio for setting that up.

Well, its a beautiful 1st of March day and should not be at this computer!
