Announcing FlatLineWear.net
This web site launched yesterday afternoon. The items for sale on the site, mostly t-shirts but other items are planned, are the creation of Greg Cardiel. Greg is a registered nurse who first came up with the idea for FlatLineWear in 1999. And finally, after much hard work, it is now a web site.
Greg has designed a line of unique fashions for medical professionals. Check out his site to see what he has to offer. If you like it, stop by the Feedback page and leave him a comment!

Recent Photography Class - June 21
We had another photography class this past Saturday. It went very well. We had two students, which seems to be a good number for this class.
I changed everything up this time. We started by playing with the cameras. Taking pictures of some jewelry. That started the questions going. Some of them I deferred until the “classroom” part, but everyone seemed more interested since they had already seen the questions in action. And somehow, we took more pictures in less time.
It was a good class. If you’re interested in improving your close up photography, you should sign up for the class.

Got Flash?
Have you checked for a mobile device?
I recently went to Toyota’s web site with my iPhone. Guess what? Nothing. All I saw was a message that said I needed to install Flash. Well, now. That’s not going to happen. I went to the site later from a computer and discovered there isn’t much to see at all if you don’t have Flash.
Which is fine if I’m on my computer. For years, there was an attitude that if someone didn’t have Flash then they could just lose out. But that doesn’t work so well now. With the growing use of mobile devices, a site that uses Flash should have something to serve up to the mobile world. Something better than a useless message that I needed to install Flash.
In fact, maybe your web site should check for a mobile device even if it doesn’t use Flash. Be friendly to the mobile world. If it’s a site for a restaurant, you could serve up (pun intended) phone numbers and the take out menu.
If you don’t have a mobile device that can get to the internet, borrow one and see what your site looks like. Your visitors will be glad you did.

Web Site Directories
Inbound links are an excellent method for getting your site known on the internet. Authoritative links are even better. Web site directories are a good source for such links. I’ve listed several of them below. When submitting your site, be sure to check each directory’s rules first. You may also need to ensure that your site isn’t already listed as some directories really frown on multiple submissions.
