My new website just recently launched, where you can find churches in Minneapolis MN or any city in the united states. We’re busy working on getting churches to sign up for a free account and provide details about themselves such as their beliefs, programs, photos, size, denomination, etc. This will allow church seekers to easily find local churches that will meet their needs.
I have a bachelor’s in Management Information Systems and have been a full time professional web developer since 2004. I have experience leading a team of web developer’s with a focus on creating a learning environment. Through my years of web development I’ve accumulated a variety of related skills including html, css, javascript, xml, seo, php, and sql to name a few.
Previously in my career I built a successful ecommerce business and grew it for over five years, then sold it in 2011. I have first hand knowledge of all areas of running an online business from sourcing a distributor / drop shipper, coding the website, search engine optimization, online marketing and advertising, payment and checkout, and customer retainment.
New to web development? I’ll show you the basics from first principles. Need help with a programming class? We’ll work through your assignments, the book problems and exercises and I’ll fill in all the gaps your professor didn’t. Want to make the leap from book exercises to making a great looking website following best practices? It’s a big one, and together we can do it.
I would love to work with you and help you in any way I can, and I look forward to hearing from you! Please contact me to set something up. I can do remote tutoring over skype if you’d like.
We’ve seen this one coming for months and today it finally happened. Netflix is increasing prices again, and why not? With 24 million subscribers, putting their current monthly revenue into the $300 million dollar range, increasing prices by 60% will help pay for a few people’s extra vacations. To be fair, the netflix price hike is mostly due to the drastic licensing costs from the film studios that provide the videos.
The $9.99 per month combined DVD rental and streaming plan will be gone on Sept 1 2011 for existing subscribers and immediately for new subscribers. The services have been broken up into $7.99 per month for streaming and $7.99 per month for a single DVD rental, or you may check out two discs at a time for $11.99 per month. What do you think about the netflix price increase?

If you’re an employer like me and have the unfortunate duty to use Minnesota’s unemployment insurance website http://www.uimn.org/ you may get very frustrated with their site very quickly as I did. Apparently there is a way to pay them with an electronic check as they say just “log into your account” as if it should be obvious. Well, it’s not and I can’t find it. They’ll tell you how much you owe after reporting your taxes and wages, but if you forget and attempt to go back and look, it’ll cost you $25. There is no place on the website that states their mailing address so you can send in a payment.
Finally… I received a piece of mail stating that my payment to this unknown office was late. In case you’re wondering, send payment to Minnesota Unemployment Fund at:
Minnesota UI
PO Box 64621
St. Paul, MN 55164-0621
Be sure to include your MN UI employer account number with payment.
Also, nobody responds if you contact them through the website. Their FAQ’s are out of date – two of the hyperlinks referenced no longer existed. There is no way to cancel my account from their website, even though it says you can on a mystery page. I can’t believe people put up with these government websites.
Hi I'm Nick Bartlett and thanks for visiting my blog. I'm not much of a writer; many of my posts are short and to the point while others are meant to be a reference for myself and other web developers. Read More...
