The Internet Connection Sunday Event:
Andy King, Webmaster
Sunday, August 27, 1995 at 10pm ET in the Bowl
(Keyword:Center Stage)
The Internet Connection is pleased to present Andy King, author
of the Webmaster Reference Library (http://ic.corpnet.com/~aking/webinfo/), and Web Integrator for Internet Connect, Inc. Andy, an engineer-turned-webmeister, makes sure his sites are well- woven into the Web, using HTML 3.0 to put his pages together, avoiding Netscape where possible. Andy says,"I'm learning every day, graphics, scripts, the whole ball of wax. This is so much fun, I can't believe I'm getting paid for it! :)"
If you are interested in designing your personal page, designing a page for a product or a company, or simply in finding out how it's done, join Andy to learn what makes a page or site stand out from the thousands of web pages on the Internet today.
Check out Andy's new and improved Webmaster Reference Library (http://ic.corpnet.com/~aking/webinfo/). It has over 450 carefully selected and annotated sites for webmasters and HTML authors (including a few of his own articles sprinkled in). The information you will find there is valuable for both beginners and experts alike.
