SPECIAL OFFERS: FREE DotNetNuke setup - save $25

Build dynamic, data-driven websites using only your web browser
 

This month we're waiving all setup fees for our DotNetNuke site hosting.  We pre-install the application, connect-up the database, and run the initial installation procedures for you and then "turn over the keys" to you.

DotNetNuke is a powerful database-driven portal builder that can be used to create many different kinds of sites.  With it's flexible "skinning" you can dramatically change the look of the site to suite your taste.

Many built-in modules provide drop-in features for a membership system/private web pages, discussion board, news, announcements, and other structured information.

We've proud to be a featured DotNetNuke hosting company on Microsoft's ASP.NET website.

This special offer is only available through the end of this month, so don't wait.  Order online at http://www.voicegateway.com/ssl/orderdnn.htm and write "Free DotNetNuke setup" on the order form in the "Additional Information" section.
 

SYSTEM NEWS/UPDATES: PHP 5 Installed

New version of popular scripting language installed

We've installed version 5 of the popular PHP programming language.  Version 5 adds a lot of enhancements including better security and a more robust object-oriented programming model.

PHP is the "fourth leg" of the popular LAMP programming stack/platform.  (The first three legs are Linux operating system, Apache web server, and MySQL database.)  As a programming language, PHP is actually platform independent and runs on many operating systems - not just Linux.

For our high-performance shared hosting servers, we're running PHP as a high-speed ISAPI service on Windows 2003 instead of the usual cgi external gateway program.  This provides high performance while using less server resources.

TECHNICAL TIPS: Are you reading your email more than once?

Has reading your email become a chore you dread?  Just a few years ago most of us enjoyed using email and looked forward to checking our inbox several times a day hoping there might be something new to read.

Email has become more of a chore and many of us dislike the time taken up reading and replying to emails.  It's gone from a novel technology to one more source of frustration in our daily work or personal lives.

Here's a quick tip that is probably more in the category of time management but nonetheless worth considering.  When reviewing your inbox, resist the temptation to prioritize your actions.  Instead of skipping less important or lower priority messages try acting on each message immediately. At first this seems counterproductive, but it turns out it is much faster to read, delete, file, or reply to each message instead of skipping some messages and then having to go back to the list of pending mail over and over.

This works especially well if normally you skip over messages telling yourself "I'll handle that one later" and somehow never manage to go back and take care of it.  Soon, after a few days or a week, your inbox swells to hundreds or more messages each waiting for you to "go back and handle it".
