To Dead End -
Having developed websites for nearly a decade, I am unaware of any freeware that is similar to iWeb. There are many companies that provide templates for very little money ($69 and up), but keep in mind, none of them provide any optimization or analytical code and the code that is pre-scripted only helps the company that built the template, including iWeb. The upside is you can have a good looking website, the downside is no one will be able to find it through search engines even if they search your name. However you can overcome some of this if you have time to socialize your site through the various social sites. Even the best optimized sites can take as much as 18 months to get to Page One, but if that’s not your purpose then templates should be great.

Check out http://www.perfectory.com I’ve used them a couple of times when clients had a REALLY tight budget. Good luck and hopefully i haven’t offended anyone.

I have not seen the ads, but I could guess from “â€œHi Iâ€™m a Mac and Iâ€™m a PCâ€ commercials” what they are about. I know perfectly well what dumb means, and I do not fit in either of its meanings.

Hey Dotjinks, you can find examples here:

http://www.iwebusersites.com/Home.html

and to put in my tuppence-worth, Noah seems to know the ads (“Those ads are wrong. And so are you. You’re a fool.”) and yet not, when it suits him (“And I donâ€™t waste time on pointless TV, so I have no idea what you are talking about.”)

And as for “Because I can type properly and spell correctly, and I have good grammar? I believe you have very little concept on what the definition of â€œdumbâ€ is.”, surely it should be “I believe you have very little concept OF what the definition of ‘dumb’ is”?

You don’t even have a face on your avatar and I’m the fool? Take your cartoon head and shove it next to that stick you have up you bum.

Now that I have flamed on Noah I can relax and ask what I wanted to in the first place . . . Where are the links to some examples of sites you built with iWeb or at least samples someone else built with the reviewed software?

Thanks for the article,

So for the fluid thinkers who understand words can have many levels of meaning and that casually “PC” does carry the meaning – “windows based personal computer(s)”. It is highly recognizable in our (US) culture, like it is repeatedly stated in “Hi I’m a Mac and I’m a PC” commercials – which Microsoft unfortunately perpetuated with their counter commercials.

Oh, and it is worth repeating that the handle “Noah” for commenters on “Make Use Of” now carries the meaning “He with a PC stick up his butt”.

For those who firmly hold onto the belief that grammar is more important than communication and expression, you should check what you are really hanging onto with such a firm grip. My guess is it’s the same proverbial stick that’s up your asses.

Dumb = repeatedly and firmly holding a stick up your ass regardless of what anyone else has to say or that you get the same results every time you do it.

There I think I covered everything . . .

You’re both right when it comes to spelling offence/offense. Both have that same meaning in Webster’s dictionary.

As for the whole PC thing, Noah is correct, but a bit anal. It used to bother me when people would call their computer a CPU. At first I would kindly inform them of what a CPU is, but after a while I got to realize that they will not change. So I stopped. No sense in wasting my time.

There are several good web building application for Windows like Dreamweaver (powerful but not free), MS Frontpage (not as powerful as Dreamweaver, and I don’t know the last status of this app), Kompozer (free, powerful, but a little outdated and IMHO not really user friendly).

But as far as I know, there’s no free, quick and easy solution to web building for Windows. But I might be wrong here. Anyone could comment on this?

Holy crap you two are lame. And to Dead End, I’ve not seen anything like this myself, but I’ve not looked.

you’re right, I can’t type correctly. i screwed a sentence up. I noticed that after i hit send and felt like an ass after correcting you.

But offense is spelled with an “S”, (not a “c”) in English. You can have the last word. good night…..

No I did not spell OFFENCE wrong. You did.

Yes I would, because it’s not a xerox. I wouldn’t be confused, I would be stating the truth. Why would it confuse me?

The only thing that confuses me is why you are trying to pick a fight, when you can not type correctly, nor make your point in a clear way.

And I don’t waste time on pointless TV, so I have no idea what you are talking about.
