While the internet may have many business applications, most business owners will limit their use of the Internet to their company Web site.
Here are some recognizable companies whose online ventures have paid off:
Large retailers from Macy’s to Service Merchandise to Lands’ End, right down to the smallest Web-only specialty store, are publishing catalogues and making [...]
Although including eye-catching, dynamic graphics on your Web site is paramount, keep in mind some technical issues as you plan and design these visual aspects.
First, remember that the Web is very dynamic. A wide variety of browsers, computers, and monitors will be looking at your site and images.
Create and acquire compelling content
To add value to announcement newsletters and make content-driven newsletters appealing, you must offer your newsletter subscribers something of real interest — tips, specials, intriguing content, and so on. Make the subject line of the newsletter concise but also intriguing. In the subject line, indicate what benefit the newsletter has for [...]
E-mail is the most popular application on the Internet. More people want e-mail than want access to the Web. E-mail packs real power, both as a communications medium and a promotional tool. You can prompt users to pop in to your site frequently by delivering to them regular, compelling e-mail newsletters filled with juicy teasers, [...]
Search engines, directories, and portals all include search capabilities in their offerings, and they usually work in more or less the same way — user types topic of interest into text box, user clicks Search button — you know the routine. The search is executed, and the results are returned in a list that’s been [...]
Imagine a private television station whose broadcast equipment was only four things: a TV set, a VCR, a camera, and a transmitter. What if the station’s programming consisted of pointing the camera at the TV set and tuning the set to the most popular programs, with the pirate station’s own commercials inserted in place of [...]
Linking, framing, and HTML pulls can be part of any Web site with a minimum of legal and business risk if done properly. As a site owner, you need to be concerned with two different aspects:
Although the meta tag can lead indirectly to an infringing link, HTML permits more direct violation by automatically pulling graphics and other elements off one Web site onto another without permission, using the <imgsrc => and other similar tags. Every Web page is made up of many different files,
After you’ve prepared your Web site for the search engines and carefully registered with them, your thoughts now should turn to promotion. Your first question is probably “How can I make a big impact on the Net—fast?”

Longhorn will use a new markup language known as Extensible Application Markup Language (XAML). XAML is similar to HTML in that you can control the layout of text and controls on a page. But it also allows you to add procedural code using languages like C#, Visual Basic.NET, and JScript.Net. The procedural code mixed with [...]
If you are running Fedora Core 3, SuSe 9, Mandriva 10.1 Debian, or Gentoo 1.4., you should not have any trouble using the Skype API. As previously mentioned, to write to the Skype API on Linux, you must have the D-BUS distributions. Once you have built the D- BUS components, you can update the /etc/dbus-1/system.d/skype.conf [...]
Literally hundreds of vendors offer various forms of commercial IDS implementations. The most q effective solutions combine network- and host-based IDS implementations. Likewise, most such implementations are primarily signature-based, with only limited anomaly based detection capabilities present in certain specific products or solutions.
When discussing network hardening, there are a number of concerns that are separate from those realized while evaluating and hardening OSes and NOSes. The appropriate firmware and OS updates implemented on hardware must be evaluated, tested, and implemented. In addition, network configurations must be as tight as possible. This includes developing appropriate rule sets and [...]
A professional video design needs to put all the rich content together to achieve the best reachable result. A simple promotional or sale presentation is not only designed to document the specific steps and plan. Most presentation is designed to attract your audience attention and motivation, a persuasive video show or a sound background picture.

Being a successful data warehouse project manager means that you have to do more — much more — than simply create project plans and ask team members to turn in weekly status reports.
Tell It Like It Is
It doesn’t matter whether you’re working with users, executive sponsors, consultants, vendors, team members, or anyone else. The most [...]
Without standards and protocols, a juggernaut like PKI would become unmanageable. For a real-life example, look at the U.S. railroad system in its earlier days. Different railroad companies were using different size rails, and different widths between the rails. This made it impossible for a train to make it cross-country, and in some cases, across [...]
The obvious way to tell that your data warehousing project is in trouble is when you don’t have anything to show for your efforts and you thought that you would. You should try to get some indication that trouble is brewing, however, before you reach that point.
Security with file servers usually consists of user identification procedures provided by password access to individual servers and individual file protection by user authorization for each file. These provisions can prevent accidental access but become inadequate to protect against willful unauthorized access or harm.
Advantages of File Servers
File servers provide a number of advantages over individual [...]
Remote Procedure Calls
All useful programs use subroutines to accomplish their function. The invocation of a subroutine is called a function call. It is obvious in languages such as C when subroutines are used. It is not so obvious that all languages, even the most advanced 4GL, use function calls extensively.
RPC provides the capability for any [...]
UNIX file servers are platforms dedicated to providing disk access for the network. UNIX networks provide access through a number of systems, variously called network file system (NFS) or remote file system (RFS).
NFS, the more comprehensive, providing the means not only to support file servers but to make all files on all UNIX platforms in [...]
