My name is not really "Danoshops"... that would be a funny name. My name is Dan Osmundson - not so funny but harder to say.
Anyway, I am here to network, learn new stuff and help other like-minded folks (when possible). I would like to pick up some freelance web design jobs, so if you have advice for me (if you are a designer/developer)... or need a site, please contact me (click the "Send a message" button -->).
Check out my portfolio site at: dano-dna.com. I will also launch dano-design.com soon.

I gained my first industry experience recently in a web design consulting position with Inkubook (parent company is Authorhouse) from a staffing agency (Beacon Hill). In this position I assisted in resolving UI defects, including but not limited to: Cross-browser issues, visual defects and bugs in the Inkubook.com website. Inkubook was getting ready to launch a new website and I was there to help work bugs out of the system. The work was pretty fast paced with my tasks changing sometimes several times per day.

On another note... I have finished filing paperwork to start a new business, DanO Design LLC. Right now, as you can see (if you followed the link in the previous sentence), the website is there but I need to put up the rest of the business information. This will take a bit more time. More information will follow when I've completed this.

If they come out with something like this, reasonably priced, I'll make a big push to get it... especially if it's HD!

What a handsome, studly cat out for a stroll... a few more shots in this series (prior to this photo) show this fellow (?) in a hissing, paw waving match with a tiger!

I found this link at a site called The Raster Group, rasterized.org [rasterized.org] . The video is hilarious - Cats are just the coolest animal around and so accessible, if you are not allergic to them (I am).

I finished reading the preceding articles and I it is my opinion (also, in addition to the opinion of smeggle) that SEO is really over-hyped. Sure it's a good thing to optimize your websites' chances of being seen by robots/spiders/crawlers, etc. but it seems rather unnecessary to plunk down a bunch of cash for it. Just make sure your title, keywords and description are tailored for your content. Building real, meaningful links between your site and others can also help, as well as 'free' search engine submissions, and a little bit of patience.

This is an interesting and intriguing article... There are two other articles that precede it, however, that I need to read to learn more of it's background. The Previous articles are "Search Engine optimization - Exposing The SEO Myth" found here:

This is a great deal, if you need a host... I wish I could have found it when I needed it!

... "pay once, own it forever" solution... there are only a limited number of these plans left, so if you want it you need to act NOW...

I found the link for Jon's blog and from there the link for his portfolio. He's doing some exceptional, clean, web 2.0 design work here. I aspire to reach this level of design and development with my work!
