Web Development

If you are interested in beginning your career as an entrepreneur, but your not all that interested in developing or maintaining the software require to run an ecommece website, then you'll probably be interested in a hosted shopping cart solution. Today, I'm reviewing Ashop Commerce, a hosted shopping cart provider that offers complete, out of the box shopping cart software for merchants to be able to focus on selling their products online.

Point of Sale (POS) software is important to any merchant in the retail industry. But when you are just getting started in business, how do you know what point of sale software to use?

One of the most imaginative and unique ideas we've seen from a new website in quite some time is brought to you by Cheap-Parking.net. The concept is simple, they let you evaluate parking prices at over 100 different parking lots, in and around all major airports in the UK, including the Gatwick Parking facilities. They provide the service of allowing you to pre-purchase your parking spot, usually resulting in a discounted price, therefore saving you money.

Websites that offer photo development have been around for years. You've also seen sites that allow you to take your photoes and put them on just about everything, from handbags to mousepads. But what about photo retouching service? Everyone has that one photo, way back in the back of their collection that would be just perfect, if only little Suzie didn't have the dreaded 'red eye'. Or what about that photo of the grandparents that became a little weathered over time, and needs a little bit of color correction?

We were recently asked to stop by the brand new Qoo Forum to write a review, and we were pleasantly surprised. Right out of the gate, this has to be one of the most beautiful templates I've even seen on a forum. The color scheme is easy on the eyes, and it's easy to read. I don't care what forum you're talking about it, if it doesn't have those fundamental elements, then you're starting off on the wrong foot. Qoo Forum has several different topics for discussion that I also found interesting.

These days, it's hard to find a reliable host, not to mention one that is reasonably priced. That's why I was surprised when I found Host Arcadia. For beginning webmasters, they offer a starter plan, which includes 500 Megabytes of space and 15 Gigabytes of bandwidth for only $3 per month. for resellers, they offer 1 Gigabyte of space and Gigabytes of bandwidth for only $6 per month. I've never seen a cheaper reseller plan anywhere. They also have a business plan that comes with 4 Gigabytes of space and 120 Gigabytes of bandwidth.

Here's a unique idea for a website. How about an online global complaint system? That's exactly what Suckered.us has provided. have a beef with George Bush? Tell the world all about it. Think Britney spears is a phoney?

One of the most common problems in website development is creating a professional looking navigational interface that's intuitive and easy and to use. Techniques include 'on hover' preloaded images or flash solutions. But perhaps the best solution is using a DHTML and Javascript menu. Unfortunately, the problem with DHTML and Javascript has always been the cross browser compatibility and complicated mappings. That's why I've always avoided them...until now.

If you're interested in becoming a professional web designer, the first thing you should consider is getting some education in graphic design. Sure, anyone can open up Dreamweaver, and create a web page in just a few minutes with all sorts of colors and graphic effects. But in order to keep up and be successful in this ultra-competitive industry, you're going to need the artistic and technical experience only an institute like the Brooks Institute of Photography can provide.
