Minimizing the Tension Between Clients & Vendors

Clients and vendors, vendors and clients.

I’ve been on both sides numerous times.

When you’re working as a church, ministry, or non-profit organization, you often find yourself hiring vendors to get things done as you’re not big enough to afford a full-time staff to take care of multimedia.

I have learned a thing or two about the differences and would like to share it with you (would love some feedback from those of you that have experience with this, too).

The OREO Separator Machine

Horst: DNS Host File Edits Made Easy

I’ve been doing far too many server migrations in the past month or so and I was reminded today how much I enjoy using Horst.

It’s a must have app for jumping servers.

Seriously.

There is no reason you need to migrate your website and then hold your breath; hoping that once your DNS migrates, everything is okay and not broken.

Here’s a closer look at Horst and how you’ll want to use it:
