Product Overview
.Mac
Now the fun begins. Use the template as is or personalize it. Drag photos from
the iLife Media Browser and type your own content into the text placeholders. Or
customize your page to your heart’s content by adding text, photos, lists, links to
other web pages and sites, links to the iTunes Music Store, and feeds for iPhoto
Photocasts, all with drag-and-drop ease. The dynamic graphics canvas in iWeb lets
you see your page exactly as it will look, even while you’re making changes.
Publishing a website with .Mac
When you have just the look you want, one click publishes your site to .Mac. You’re
done! You can publish your pages as a stand-alone site or add a set of pages directly
to one of your .Mac groups.
After you publish your pages, you can notify your friends, family, or colleagues in
minutes. Mac OS X Mail opens a new message containing your announcement and
a link to your site. All you have to do is drag contacts or groups from your Address
Book to the To fi eld and click Send.
Managing multiple sites
Once you discover how easy it is to create a personal website, you won’t want to stop
with one. Use one site for pictures of the kids, another one for showing o∂ your new
house, and a third site for pictures from your family reunion. Create a separate site for
your small business or your resume. Add or remove sites as often as you want; change
pages in your sites whenever you’re in the mood.
One-Click Blog Publishing
A weblog, or blog for short, is an online journal. The author, or blogger, creates a
series of entries, with an entry for a given date including text about a topic or topics
of interest; some bloggers include links to other websites as part of their narrative. A
blog entry can also include photos or even a movie.
Although blogs are commonly used as a form of journalism, they can be the perfect
vehicle for expressing your opinions, sharing your expertise, or keeping family and
friends up to date about the events in your life.
