I've used many web development tools, but this site is unusual in that it was created entirely with Microsoft Word, which most people don't know can read and write .html files.
The .html and graphic files were uploaded with FTP, and I found some free HTML code to do the graphic loop. Word works just fine for a small site but is not suitable for larger projects.

Modern Health Talk is an online community (website, blog,
and social network) connecting people with low- and high-tech solutions
for home healthcare. It was developed in WordPress with free plug-ins
and a custom template that I created with Artisteer. The social media
tools include Twitter,a Facebook fan page, Google+, a weekly newsletter (on paper.li), a YouTube channel, and Pinterest.
It features >400 articles, >400 infographics, >300 reference links, e-commerce product comparison, and an online assessment. |

I used XSitePro II to develop and expand this
large site, with over 1,000 files and a large collection of news items,
photos, videos, links, case studies, white papers, and other marketing
collateral that helped HOT achieve success in its legislative battle to
protect homeowners.
Without being an HTML expert, I found it easy
to add several HTML and Flash extensions to support special effects not native
to XSitePro. See highlights.

A Nightmare on Mainstreet
This webpage covers TWO nightmares:
- Builders and Realtors push Congress to
extend...
...the Homebuyer's TAX CREDIT. Why is that a bad idea?
- There's a widening wage gap between the
ruling class and the working class. Watch
the video to see
how wide.

TRCC.us
XSitePro II was used to develop a simple
website specifically for legislators and their staffs. Homeowners of Texas
already had a consumer-oriented site but needed a simpler way to convince
lawmakers to abolish the abusive Texas Residential Construction Commission. We
used this site to share marketing collateral and our analysis of deceptions in
a builder-written bill designed to extend the life of the TRCC. That bill
would have made matters worse.

LegislativeStrategiesLLC.com
The landing page for this new lobbying
organization features a random graphic supporting the tagline, Opening
doors for the Public Interest where Success HINGES on Strategy and Advocacy.
The site design reflects political advocacy but
avoids images of the Capitol dome or rotunda, since that's what traditional
lobbying firms do. Instead I used images of hinges, door knobs and gates. Even
the logo was inspired by a photo of a Texas Capitol doorknob.

TALandmen.org
Members of the new Texas Association of Landmen
wanted to differentiate themselves from the American Association of Petroleum
Landmen (AAPL), which had evolved to serve the special interests of big oil
companies, as opposed to independent landmen. They hired us to establish a new
trade organization.
This site is designed to drive membership and
eventually support political advocacy and collaborative information sharing. |

I developed this site years ago with Microsoft
FrontPage for my independent consulting firm, which focused on the Digital
Home. CAZItech offered management consulting and strategic marketing services
to companies in the converging industries of broadband, wireless, home and
community networking, as well as consumer electronics, personal computing, and
home & building automation. |

You don't have to be a webmaster or use HTML or
web development tools to create a web page. This resume was done with
Microsoft Word and saved in .html, doc, pdf, and text formats. Notice the
consistency of fonts, colors, graphics and message, which continues on my
business cards and waynecaswell.info.
When people are unable to receive email
attachments, I simply point them to
waynecaswell.info/resume.pdf.

Anyone can create a personal webpage without a
domain name, hosting service or special software. This is my
personal Facebook
page, but I also created a page for
Homeowners ofTexas and a
HOT Fans page that was used to point people to relevant information on our
website, in the mainstream news media, and on trusted blogs.
Since Facebook "helps you connect and
share with the people in your life", I use it for online conversations
among friends.

This is my Linkedin page, again created
without a domain name, hosting service or special software. All I needed was a
web browser.
Over 80 million business professionals use
LinkedIn to create a professional identity online, exchange information, ideas
& opportunities, and find a job or the people & knowledge they need to achieve
their goals. |

There are many more social networking sites out
there, and I have profiles on many of them -- often just so I can learn about
them and see which ones are better for what purposes. |

Dell.com/homenetwork
I've always said
people don't buy computers; they buy Solutions. I developed content
contributing to this Home
Networking Learning Center sitelet to help them understand Home Network
solution offerings. |
|
Dell.com/hometheater
Since most
people buy Solutions, not computers, Dell's Home Theater Learning Center is a
place to learn about Home Theater solutions. While at Dell, I developed
content contributing to
this sitelet. |
|
Dell.com/familysafety
With my
direction (before leaving Dell) and with help from
Microsoft, Dell's Family Safety Learning Center sitelet underwent a major
facelift and became much more useful to parents. |
