Services We Recommend (Okay, They're Not Free, But We Like 'Em Anyway!)
People often ask us how we send out our newsletters, who hosts our many Web sites, and where we get stuff printed. These are some of our favorite vendors in no particular order. (Yes, a few are affiliate links; unlike many people, we only join affilate programs for services we actually use and can endorse!)
- Our Hosting Company - Secure Webs
- Our favorite Domain Registrar - GoDaddy
- Spam Filtering - It's the way we deal with endless, endless spam - SpamArrest
- Autoresponder: Our online newsletter service - AWeber
- Digital Photo Services - Shutterfly

A Few Shareware
Tools We Like
- Glock SpamCombat - We get so much spam, we need two tools to deal with it. SpamCombat is great because it lets you delete spam before it gets to your computer. We are convinced that years of downloading ONLY headers has prevented us from getting any number of viruses and other badness.
- WinZip - a Zip compression
utility we use all the time.
- TraxTime - a simple time tracking tool from Spud City Software that works like
a time clock. It's very easy to use (yes, there is beauty in simplicity).
- Arachnophilia
- the tool we used originally to create this Web site way back when in 1997. If you hate the garbage
code WSIWYG tools chuck into your HTML, but hate typing endless greater
than and less than signs in Notepad, you'll love this software. The
author's concept of "Careware" is extremely cool too.
