The jury is in - That is the MacJury

It's always fun to be a part of a new project!
Chuck Joiner ( MacNotables, MacVoices, The MUG Center, etc.) has just started a new podcast, MacJury, and I was honored to be a guest on the first show. Along with several of the other members of MacLevelTen, we discussed lots of topics. Most notable were BlueRay, Apple TV and Twitter.
The mix of guests made for interesting conversation. As the only woman (and a grandmother too), my perspective is sometimes different from that of the guys. Having Dan Pourhadi there to give the college-age perspective, Don McAllister for the European perspective and Jay Nelson to represent the creative market along with Chuck's leadership, I think our thoughts and opinions made for a well-rounded presentation. I hope to be invited back participate in future shows!

Moving Forward

I have been blogging here at MacMousecalls for
several months now. The process has been far from
smooth.
I began the blog using WordPress with encouragement from several of my fellow members of the MacLevelTen media group. I also secured an account at DreamHost to have a home for it. DreamHost is one of the best web hosts out there for WordPress bloggers, but I am not using WordPress right now.
This is far from my first web page. In fact, I helped set up a web site for my children's elementary school back in 1992, and ours was one of the first school web sites out there. In those days I used a text editor and wrote all my own tags. Since the purpose of the web site was to enable the students and teachers to make their own web pages, I used the Mac OS Notepad to hold the common tags used in writing HTML. The kids and teachers would copy and paste the tags into SimpleText and then fill in the content in the middle.
