FTP Publish with iWeb '09

Sounds like an easy task, right? Think again.

Before we had all the fancy bells and whistles in iWeb '09, publishing a site via FTP in '08 was a fairly complicated process. Publish to folder > connect to FTP > upload folder to FTP. *phew*

While the new process in '09 sounds simple, the technicals are extreme difficult. Simply put in your FTP information (server, username, password), and you're good to go. However, if you're using a Windows-based FTP server, you'll need to use a workaround. For my home business, I use the free FTP space my internet provider gives me. I figured it would be cheaper than having to pay for hosting. But come to find out, I kept getting errored in iWeb '09 about it. So upon further web inspection, it seems as though everyone who's using a Windows-based server is having the same issue. So unless you're uplading to a Linux box or XServe, this article is for you.

1. First things first: If you're like me and you're using your internet provider's space, call your ISP and see if they can let you connect to a Linux box instead of their Windoze nonsense (because, let's face it, Windows is a horrible server platform). Usually they'll deny your request (those dirty rotten...) and it's on to the next step.

2. Open iWeb '09 > on the left sidebar pane click on the title of your site > choose to Publish to a Folder > Publish > Use an FTP software like Cyberduck or Fetch  to connect to the server > look for a folder entitled (usually) public_html on the server. Now this part is somewhat tricky. Go to where you published the folder, and look for a file called Index.html. Upload everything in the folder with Index.html to your public_html folder on the server. At this point, it's usually safe to visit your site.

3. Get a domain. While .com, .net, etc... domains can sometimes be pricey, there are plenty of free ones. www.co.cc and www.freedomain.co.nr

are both easy and free ways to have a memorable webpage URL. Have fun and good luck!

Review of the Dell S2209W 21.5" Display

I have had the Dell 2209W 21.5" Display for about a month now. I bought this display from Best-Buy for just a little under $250. I have noticed a lot of differences from my older monitor that I had owned. There aremany pro's and con's of this monitor. Read below:

Pros:

This display has been great so far. 

• Very clear and crisp 21.5" HD Widescreen
• The brightness is excellent and is almost brighter than my Macbook Pro's display
• The price is reasonable compared to Apple's monitors
• Able to adjust the screen brightness and contrast
• Works flawlessly with my Mac
• The screen has a matte finish
• Build quality is excellent

Cons:

After using this monitor for a month, I have spotted a few flaws as well.

• Lack of any USB Ports on the monitor itself
• Height cannot be adjusted which tends to get annoying
• The display is a tad bit bulky

As you can see, there are many pro's and few cons. I would definitely recommend this product looking for a good monitor with a reasonable price. Like I said, this is available at Best Buy and the Dell website. If I were to rate this monitor on a scale of 1 to 10, it would get an 8. 

Thanks for reading!

Snow Boarding

Now you see, I love the snow. Everything about it. I love it so much that I went to Boreal with my new nikon and no protective bag for some great shots. But these guys in Utah took it to the next level.
