My daughter, Jeremia, and her partner, John, have long dreamed of opening an “eco-smart, family-friendly” watering hole. As the first big step towards making this dream a reality, they’re re-opening (and re-naming) a restaurant-bar in Camp Verde that used to be called the “Salt Mine Cellars”. I just finished putting up a website for them and they also have a page up on Facebook. They took the place for a test drive a few weekends ago (to rave reviews) and are gearing up to reopen again over the July 4th weekend. Come check it out…

Now here’s something I’m pretty excited about: I just finished putting up my first two IANDS group websites. These websites have been designed to give local IANDS groups a place where they can post information about their local meetings and special events — and introduce new people to the fascinating, possibly life-changing world of near-death experiences. Each website has the same basic functionality and content. For a small set-up fee, I create a personalized version of this website for a local group, then host it at reduced cost, making it super affordable for them while, at the same time, giving them a professional face to the world. Once their website is up and they have learned how to add basic posts, it’s theirs. They can change the preselected content I have built into it, change the color scheme, even drop on a completely different WordPress template on, if they want to. The first two sites to go live are Sedona IANDS and LA IANDS. San Diego IANDS is next.

Set up a blog for Sher Stultz and her daughter, Astra, to serve as home base for their traveling adventure. Also consulted on setting up a Facebook Fan Page and picking the right video camera for the job. Sher decided on a Kodac Zi8 Pocket Video Camera which captures up to 1080p HD, uses SD cards, has an external microphone jack and shoots 5-megapixel still images. The cost, if you can believe it, $157.00!
