About this website

Dec 10, 2001 By Frank Marion

Take a look around. This entire web site is created by an application that I've conceptualized, designed and written. I call it 'Publisher'. The name may not be very creative, but I'm quite proud of this mid-sized content management system.

Tip
Latency and download speeds
Often times I see sites with a million small images for a nav bar. I often prefer to use fewer but larger images. While an image map, or a larger images may be heavier in k, there is far less latency; the browser may have to download 10 k instead of 8k, but it only needs to send a request to the server once, as opposed to once per 1k image. Try it, quite often, you can speed up the download by many factors. You'll probably find that the browser renders it faster too.
