Templates! We got templates! | Joe Longobardi Photography
https://joelongobardi.wordpress.com/2010/04/18/templates-we-got-templates
April 18, 2010. 8212; thejoey @ 10:12 pm. Templates. We all love ’em. So versatile! So user-friendly. They come in all shapes and flavors! Designers love them; lay people adore them; moms cherish them; Dwarves mine them for their sparkle; kids just can’t get enough of them! My CMS of choice by the way is WordPress. Yes, Blogger is very easy to use, but nowhere as versatile; add that many professional organizations use WordPress as well as Drupal and Joomla. So why not cash in, so to speak? I rather like ...

March 29, 2010. A Tale of Two Content Management Systems. 8212; thejoey @ 7:45 pm. 8220;It was the best of times.”. I may be ostracized for humming that old Styx. Tune in public, but yes, that was how I felt in my previous blog regarding the sublime and miraculous introduction to Content Management Systems (CMS). WordPress! The endless array of open source CMS like manna from heaven! 8220;It was the worst of times.”. But, oh, how things can so dramatically shift into a new paradigm! No such luck. Gra...

April 11, 2010. 8220;Dude, where’s my website? 8212; thejoey @ 5:16 pm. 8220;If you bid it, they will come.”. We no longer want our MTV (and who does? No music, just “cribs”). Today, people want as much online exposure as God and mammon will allow! Some bemoan some false sense of exclusion: “I see all these sites online, so obviously it’s the result of SEO (Search Engine Optimization). I want a piece of that action! Search Engine Visibility, or Search Engine Marketing. The three main methods are:. Search...

Change Agents | Joe Longobardi Photography

January 23, 2010. 8212; thejoey @ 9:30 pm. Out With The Old But Not Without A Fight! What’s in a name? Well, in deciphering the semantics of today’s terminology, there’s the usual confusion and lag regarding the continuous redefining of terms. Okay, so for example, how does one define Multimedia. Well, think about it did you even notice the gradual deviation from those latest innovations? How about floppy disks and zip drives? And now we have Web 2.0. Was there even a Web 1.0. So of course, those who hav...

Children | Joe Longobardi Photography
https://joelongobardi.wordpress.com/2010/01/21/children
January 21, 2010. 8212; thejoey @ 1:22 am. A Warm Day In Asheville. While trying out some new camera equipment on the streets of Asheville on what was finally a warm day in January, I came across a family of three that included a young daughter no more than four years old. The girl’s father proceeded to place her on the giant iron that sits across from the Flat Iron Building. The candid nature of street photography is a challenge I revel in, but every so often it’s nice to have someone model for you.

May 9, 2010. Another plug for plug-ins! 8212; thejoey @ 10:09 pm. Galleries for Art’s Sake! The one thing that can be said about Content Management Systems is that they just call out for images! The web has become more visual than ever, and nothing can spiff up a site like a simple but effective image gallery to display everything from your kid’s art to photos of your trip to Botswana. Just about every site has its own plugin to upload one image to another site. Flickr. To share with friends. NextGEN Gal...

CMS for the Masses (Or: Are we happy yet?) | Joe Longobardi Photography

February 20, 2010. CMS for the Masses (Or: Are we happy yet? 8212; thejoey @ 9:19 pm. Oh what a tangled web we weave-unless of course we practice good Content Management! People complain about the weather, but they never do anything about it. We can send a man to the moon, but I can’t find a toaster with slots large enough to accommodate my bagels! Okay, some things are just out of our immediate control. But what about incorporating a Content Management System. Or CMS) in your workflow? Nice segue, eh?

Whether you’re a Mom and Pop establishment, a local school, artist or just the Über-Blogger of the Internet, an events calendar can allow you to keep people posted on what you are doing as well as allow people to make a note of some special event just by the mere wayward glance of a site’s sidebar.
