ITdiaries.com Blog

We designed and implemented ITdiaries.com, a new website for Dan Renner of Los Angeles Computerhelp. ITdiaries.com is a "blog" or online journal run by software that allows our client to log in to write articles and messages; archiving is done unattended by the blog software.

A computer repair and networking expert, ITdiaries is Dan's "industry-related" blog for dissemination and discussion of computers, computer networks, security and Internet-related issues.

In addressing the design of ITdiaries, we noted that computer industry folk have their own culture and preferences, and the design and functionality of the ITdiaries.com blog needed at once to distinguish itself and yet appeal to the industry.

ITdiaries blogOne of the beauties of well set-up blogs is that every post (article) is converted into a syndicated format (RSS or "Really Simple Syndication") and is then automatically picked up by syndicator websites such as Bloglines or Yahoo. The other main feature is that it allows site owners to publish their own material with little instruction.
