Plasma versus LCD TVs

June 30th, 2008 | Category: Television

There has been much debate between which television is better, Plasma or LCD. When deciding which type of TV you should purchase, the research is a little up in the air as to which is a better buy.  Whereas Plasma TVs seem to offer better picture quality in normal lighting, LCDs are better in brightly lit rooms. That’s one of the main differences between the two technologies. If you have a lot of questions about how these two differ and you can’t find the answer online, be sure to ask sales reps from multiple stores. Don’t just go to 2 Best Buy locations because they’ll likely have the same training on what to tell you. Get another opinion and ask the rep if they have one of these TVs at home! Their personal story can be helpful as well.  As for price, they seem to be very competitive with one another. One thing for sure, both televisions are far superior to the old rabbit ears.

Basic web design is simpler than you might think but…

June 05th, 2008 | Category: Web Design

Many people are under the assumption that web design is done by computer geniuses who deal with the complex code of HTML.  That’s partially true. The majority of them are extremely familiar with HTML, but nowadays, the average Joe can create a simple website with just a little bit of direction.

A popular program to use is Macromedia / Adobe Dreamweaver. From there, you might want to try a tutorial from someone that knows the basics of web design. You should also look into basic courses at a local school. Many non-credit classes are available and you could learn a lot of the instructors. From there, you should be all set to do basic updates, and it’s just a matter of time before you become a computer genius too. LOL!

Just keep in mind that creating a website and producing an online marketing machine are two completely different things. Tinker all you want with the basics of HTML but don’t expect people to find your website and want to buy from you. Beginners need a LOT of deeper understanding to go from basic web design to full on Internet marketing.

Keep that in mind…
