Capturing the Real You on Film
One of the most important image decisions you will make on your website is selecting the photographs of you (see Branding Basics Part I – Image). Embedded within the other elements on your site that convey your work to the world will be your smiling face reaching out to your web visitors.

Spiritual and Image Conscious?
This is a familiar source of confusion for emerging wisdom workers. It is sometimes hard to reconcile our sense of humbly serving the Universe through our spiritual gifts with the worldly realities of how to step fully into sharing those gifts to the widest audience possible.
Web Technologies
There are many different server side technologies used to deliver content on the WWW (world wide web). The technologies generally share the common goal of delivering content in the form of HTML (hyper text markup language) to clients. I will briefly discuss some of these technologies in this blog.
The first thing that is necessary to deliver web pages is a web server. The basic job of the web server is to handle requests and deliver responses. When you request a web page you are really asking an address via http (hyper text transfer protocol) to deliver its contents to your device (usually a web browser). The web server on the machine with that address processes this request and delivers HTML. In the case of a static site this is usually done by sending the contents of the corresponding .html/htm page on the server. However, for dynamic sites there is usually a coding language, framework or gateway, and one or more databases involved.
