Webpad Basics Consider using hypertext for your own notes: A Web page doesn't have to be made public on the internet. Searches & Stuff Our startup pages: Web searches and directories, newsgroup searches, and other research tools -- with useful (weather, purchasing guides, etc.) and fun stuff, too. S&S Notes Comments on the entries in Searches and Stuff go here, to keep the search page itself short enough to load quickly. Links & Resources Here we temporarily store links and off-line resources that might enhance the regular Dharma-Haven pages. Local Notes We never upload our local version of this page to the Web: It's a space for rough drafts and trying out new ideas. Top |

Basic Systems Get a basic system right away; then delay upgrades until the new gizmos are common, and you really need them. Connections Contribute to the World Wide Web, even with little or no access to the Internet; and learn to improve your access. Webwork Software Excellent software for working with basic Web pages can be downloaded from the Internet -- some for free, some as inexpensive shareware. Wetware Training Of all the components of a computer system, human beings are hardest to install correctly. Top |

Guidelines Although commonly called 'style,' these issues powerfully affect how people will experience your pages, and whether they can even read them at all. Making Pages It's easy to create Web pages in a page-view editor -- but a look at the formatting codes sometimes helps. Weblishing and Site Keeping Find a reasonably priced host for your Web pages, upload the pages to your server -- and keep them up to date. Weblicity Among the millions of pages out here, how are people going to find yours? |

Your Comments and Suggestions Our decisions about what to do next, when working on creating and maintaining the Dharma Haven pages, are strongly influences by the feedback we get from visitors to our site. Dead Links Through the kindness of the Shambhala Webmasters, Mom Spider checks our pages each week for expired or redirected links and other problems. Searches for "dharma haven" One good way to make our pages available to people is to get accurate descriptions into the Internet searches and directories. This shows what people will see if one of our pages turns up in a search. Top |

Getting accurate descriptions into the Internet searches and directories is quite a challenge. Different services have different methods for deciding what pages to put into an index, and what to provide as a description of a particular Web page. Searching for "dharma haven" shows what people will see if one of our pages turns up in a search. (It doesn't matter what they searched for -- if our page is in the search results, this is how it will look.) Top |
