I spent the day yesterday looking into software for website creation.
.I only have a basic knowledge of HTML so I was looking for a program that I could use visually, dragging and dropping and inserting text and pictures and so forth. Money is an issue so I ruled out some of the more expensive options but I still wanted to be able to create flash menu’s and insert jukeboxes and video.
.Enter
Coffee Cup ; they have authored a host of programs which tackle the various aspect of designing a modern website and all are very affordable. You also get free upgrades for life when you purchase one of their programs and plenty of solid endorsements from web heavies to allay your fears that you will be disappointed. But if you still need convincing you can download fully functional trial versions of their programs. (Web developing aside I sure do love
Lock Box. )
.
The Coffee Cup website itself is a
learning tool written in an easy to read, informal style that hints at this company’s coffee house roots and totally lives up to their motto: “
Fresh Software. Warm People. “

Margie and Edna are two elderly sisters created and brought to life by two amazing and kind people named Jane and Beth. Margie and Edna’s basement combines a form of linkable nostalgia which is only made possible by the web with a high comedy based on character which evokes
Carol Burnett,
Vicki Lawrence,
Lucille Ball and
Giulietta Masina amongst others.

He always takes the time to respond to comments left on his posts and very often will allow these impromptu exchanges to inform upcoming installments.
