Sophisticated Websites in Minutes
Many people would never consider creating a website, because they don’t know
how to create and program pages or how to publish them to the Internet. iLife ’06
and .Mac work together to let you publish stunning, personalized web pages with
ease—and without the need for complicated programming, le upload programs,
or web server management.
Here are just a small number of the many ways you can use a personal website:
You and your friends have a wonderful day at the beach. After you get home, you load
your digital photos into iPhoto, select your favorites, and put them up on your website
on pages that look just like a gorgeous photo album or scrapbook. Your friends can
see them before you meet for dinner.
Your parents live far away. You update your website every few weeks with photos and
movies of their grandkids.
You create a blog, complete with pictures, that captures all the fun of your recent class
reunion. Add even more interest with a podcast that includes audio reminiscences
synchronized with yearbook photos; include a movie page with video highlights of the
main events of the weekend.
Best of all, the pages you make with iLife ’06 and .Mac are completely ad-free. The only
content you see is your own. If you want to be sure your site stays private, you can
easily add a password and send it to the people you want to invite to see your site.
Creating a website with iLife ’06
