Whats it like being webmaster?
It’s difficult, because I don’t own a real computer. I have MSN TV. It has a wireless keyboard and a remote, and uses my TV as a display. I plan to buy a nice computer in late 2011, finances permitting. For now, this means a three-mile slog, twice a week, through snow and cold in winter, the rains of April, and the searing heat of summer, to the Henrietta Public Library, to use a free computer. I don’t drive. Bus service is sporatic. The programmers at my web hosting service wrote the code, and charged me one dollar for each feature. For the random chess quotes displayed on each page, I supplied the list of chess quotes. That, and the code for the photo slideshow, each cost a dollar. I’m glad I didn’t have to do the heavy lifting. I know the HTML basics, but the new fancy stuff baffles me. Pretty soon the combined cost of these extra features ran to $16.00, but it’s only a one-time fee. Thank goodness the use of the public library’s computers is free of charge.
