Terapad Pro
It seems that every week a new content management system (CMS) or blogging platform makes its debut, despite the fact that there's little to differentiate them. You pay a small fee (or nothing at all if you don't mind ads being placed on your site) and they take care of your site's design, installation and hosting. Terapad is continuing the trend, allowing both newcomers and seasoned web developers to get an attractive site live in a matter of minutes. Only Terapad is different -- very different. Fully-featured WYSIWYG editing, CSS control and layout control gives full control of how your blog/site looks. One-click integration of other features like a forum, static web page, events calendar, image gallery, job board, as well as PayPal-enabled shopping basket -- these distance Terapad from its competitors.

Allton Starts Web Design Firm in Lake Saint Louis, MO
Michael Allton can still remember his first website. "It was 1997, and my mother had just formed a new non-profit organization in Norwalk, Ohio called Project Leadership. It was designed to promote leadership and community values and she wanted a website to help recruit members. I used FrontPage 97 and it was very basic, but it sparked my love for website design." Since then, Michael has come a long way. For several years, he designed websites for businesses and organizations in Ohio while with an IT Firm. Then, last year, after moving to Lake Saint Louis, he started his own design firm, Stadia Studio. "I wanted very much to get back into designing websites for small businesses," said Michael. "I've always enjoyed helping businesses grow, and having a great website is an integral part of that." Stadia Studio specializes in providing small businesses with complete web services including website design, hosting, search engine optimization and consulting.

Plaza cam is back
The Plaza cam is back. Visitors to www.ArcataPlazaCam.com can now see live video of the northwest corner of the town square via a Web-enabled camera perched on the Plaza View Stay balcony at Ninth and H streets, according to a press release. A separate web camera existed on the south side of the Plaza for several years, operated by a Web site design and hosting company. Alex Stillman, an Arcata City Councilwoman, is sponsoring the new camera. It uses her private DSL for Internet access. "I figure it's for fun," she said. Stillman said she decided to put it up after her daughter in the Bay Area said she was checking on road and slope conditions via Web cams to decide whether to go skiing. That conversation reminded Stillman of the old Plaza cam. The new camera will be great to view festivals and to see how busy the plaza is, Stillman said.
