I know the title sounds a little stupid... and obvious but some
people really don't get it. People still think in the web design business that doing a website for free, or for a charity is going to "pay off" in the long run. Well I'm sorry to be the one to tell you, but this is just totally not true.
Why you ask? I will get to that. But first I am going to start with why they think its going to "pay out big"! Most everyone who sits down and starts thinking about doing a website for free really is not thinking of the charity and helping them out. They are thinking how its going to better them and their company.

Hello everyone my name is Sean Habing. First off thank you to Adrian who will be letting me
add to his wonderful website. I will be blogging about programming, technology and other interesting items that affect the internet, which seems to be everything these days. Today I will be covering SSL (Secure Socket Layer). For e-stores, online banking and other websites which require private data to be transferred from the client to the server nothing is more important then SSL.
What seems to be a common issue with most E-stores and websites is expired SSL, Self Signed SSL or just not having it at all. In a rush to save money small e-stores try to avoid spending the $30 USD/Year as they believe it's not important. What they fail to grasp is that SSL protects their customers data by encrypting it and sending it through a secure connection.

Ever wonder what it is like to view the world as a mouse?
In this post I will be showcasing 30 spectacular photos taken from a mouse eye view!
What I find cool and inspirational about these photos, and this type of photography is you don't need a lot of equipment to get the shot. With that said you don't need a lot of money either, just a decent camera and of course you have got to have skill, which money can't by (thank god for that!). With is type of photography it is all about timing. When you take the shot, where the people in the shot are positioned etc play a huge role in how it's going to turn out. In one of the photos in this showcase, the photographer had to wait a few hours in the same spot to get the shot.

The main problem here is if you are reading this, it is
most likely because aware of these problems and have had them done to you... countless times now.
Over the years I have work now as a full-time web designer for a software company, most of my clients (if not all of them) have been not very website savvy. Which is to be expected, they are not web developers like us. But that's just it. They don't seem to see it that way. They seem to be convinced that they know what they are talking about when it comes to design, maintaining, and even picking out the right CMS for their organizations website!

As a web designer my life would not be complete without these very useful applications/programs.
Below is a list of applications/and or programs for web designers and developers, that I use. They will save you time, money, and frustration. I promise!
Ok before I get to the list I would just like to point out that these may all be apps, but they are all going to be very different. Some may have installers and run off your computer, while others may be web apps, some may run on Adobe air, etc. you get the point. So I am using the words application/programs loosely. Also if you don't already have Adobe Air installed you should! Adobe AIR - a cross-platform runtime environment for rich-internet and desktop applications. You can get it for free here. It will be needed for some of the best apps out there!
