Sports journalism now ‘a website business’

Friday, August 29th, 2008

When popular sports columnist Jay Mariotti from the Chicago Sun-Times this week, he explained his decision this way: sports journalism has become “entirely a website business.” He had just returned from Beijing, where he said most of the journalists there were reporting for the web. So now Mariotti is looking to land an online job.

Mariotti’s insight shouldn’t be limited to just the newspaper world. For coverage of pro teams, the web rules, and local TV plays a small and declining role. ESPN.com, Yahoo Sports, local newspaper sites and now the team websites themselves are the primary destinations for pro sports news. And competition is growing in college and high school sports, too. As a result, directly or indirectly, local TV has been shifting its coverage resources away from sports over the years. And unfortunately, with the exception of high school sports, this coverage shift is slowly putting local TV out of the game for sports coverage, both on TV and the web.

Options for Website Development

Thursday, August 28th, 2008

As it turns out, there are many different options available. In fact, there are as many options available as there are websites on the net. But a few stick out as particularly good approached for you to consider. This article will review three strategies for getting your website up and running. In reality, there are countless subcategories within each strategy but this overview should give you a good start to begin your planning.

The first strategy is also the cheapest. You can use the Joomla CMS Web Application Framework to build your website. Joomla is an open source project, meaning it was developed by loosely affiliated developers around the world and it’s free to use. Yes, you read it correctly. It’s absolutely free for anyone to use. You simply download the platform and install it on your server and you’re good to go. There are also countless extensions you can download and install, upholstery cleaning richmond the functionality of your website. The beauty of the platform is that you can log on at any time and make changes or adjustments to your website, all by yourself. Joomla is a powerful content management system and you can quickly put up a feature-rich website without paying a penny.

The second strategy is to host your website with a company that offers a template-driven web application framework of their own. More and more hosting companies are offering platforms like this and they’re a great option for non-tech-savvy furniture cleaner who want to get a website up quickly and be able to modify it whenever they like. These platforms offer similar functionality to Joomla but they tend to be more intuitive and easier to use.

The last strategy we’ll discuss in this article is the actual hiring of a web developer to put your site together. This is obviously the most expensive option but it does come with some distinct advantages. For starters, you can design the website any way you like. You’re not limited to templates or layout options. You can do whatever you like. amp; upholstery cleaning in can also incorporate custom functionality Joomla or the template-driven platforms don’t offer. And in many cases, today’s developers can incorporate administrative back-ends so you can change content whenever you like. There’s no question you can get the Cadillac treatment with a custom web developer. The only downside is that it’ll cost you a lot more money.

There are dozens of options I have not even mentioned. This article is intended to get you started; give you some basic categories to consider. Look around and do your research. I only request that you take a look at the inexpensive options before making your final decision. You might be surprised at furniture upholstery functionality available through Joomla or the platforms offered by hosting companies. They can do a really nice job and will save you tons of money at the same time.

Model Driven Development Continues to Build Momentum

Thursday, August 28th, 2008

Intelliun Corporation, the leading innovator in Model Driven Development (MDD) welcomes the increased interest and adoption of the MDD approach from industry leaders such as NetBeans, Eclipse and Microsoft.

“We were delighted when, as part of his keynote speech at the last TechEd Conference in Orlando, Bill Gates described ‘modeling’ as one of the biggest trends in application development,” Intelliun President and Chief Executive Officer, Iyad Jabri, said. “This further validates the market trend and future of software development which was the principal vision for founding Intelliun back in 1999.”

The Virtual Enterprise (VE), Intelliun’s model driven application development platform, was the first MDD platform to offer end-to-end Web application development using visual models, and is now in its sixth generation with features that further the platform’s technology lead. Today, Intelliun’s VE software is in use across a wide spectrum of industries and amongst organizations of all sizes.

“Model driven application development has the potential to significantly change how businesses think about software development by delivering business results that cannot be achieved using traditional application development methods within the time, cost and resource constraints. As a pioneer, Intelliun has played an important role in advancing MDD and the supporting architectural patterns,” Dr. Richard Mark Soley, chairman and chief executive officer of The Object Management Group, said.

“Momentum is clearly picking up for Model Driven Development and we are working closely with Intelliun as a NetBeans Strategic Partner to offer MDD support to developers using our award winning IDE,” Senior Manager, NetBeans Partner Program, Ashwin Rao, said.

Individual journalists and organizations can create profiles in which they can highlight their work, post news, and invite others to join their network. Users can search for each other by e-mail address, IJNet screen name, location, organization, area of expertise, language, or other information. Users who have set up profiles can join discussions, post to IJNet Answers, and take advantage of the site’s interactive features.

In addition, the site’s Global Forum for Media Development (GFMD) section offers the latest industry news to its 400 member organizations, the media assistance community, development professionals, and funders worldwide.
