Internet Projects

I have been involved in several Internet projects. Both corporate and personal. Below are descriptions, background information as well as links to the sites.

BetterStatistics.com

BetterStatistics.com Home Page

• BetterStatistics.com endeavors to create a better way to understand hockey by applying statistical analysis to NHL statistics.
• Designed using Microsoft Visual Studio.Net, BetterStatistics.com utilizes ASP.net to connect to a Microsoft Access Database.

SportsSLEUTH.com

SportsSLEUTH.com Team Page

• Recognized by Yahoo! Internet Life as one of the '50 Most Incredibly Useful Sites on the Internet' SportsSLEUTH.com provided local coverage of the NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL, NASCAR, and Division One College football and basketball. Users could follow up to five of their favorite teams through the site and from a customized daily e-mail.
• Launched in July, 1999 SportsSLEUTH.com grew to be a premier destination of sports information on the Internet.
• As the Product Manager for SportsSLEUTH.com my responsibilities included everything from writing a daily trivia question for the site (yes that is a picture of me) to verifying the quality of the content brought back by the search spider.
• A new user experience was underway before the site was shut down. Here is a sample of what the site was going to look like.
  The Site was redesigned the following in mind:
• Highlight original content written by SportsSLEUTH.com writers
• Provide opportunities to cross promote features on the site.
• Create additional revenue positions above the 'fold' on the page.
• Present better organized navigation on the site.

Amiable Product Support

Amiableworld.com Support Page

• From its inception in early 1996 until July 1998, I was in charge of creating and maintaining the Support section of the Amiable Technologies web site.
• The first goal was to gather as much information as was already available and to convert it to HTML for posting to the web site. The original web site lacked a clear look and feel. The second revision adopted a more consistent interface.

• A third revision capitalized on the amiableworld domain name giving each section of the web site a different portion of the world as its theme. The Support section's theme was Egypt. The Marketing department supplied the graphics and introductory text to the site. Originally the Support section's content was obscured by the theme. Large graphics and introductory text made the content secondary.
• A restructuring was undertaken shortly thereafter to make the site more useful. Emphasis was placed on the content, making it easier to find relevant information. The site was transferred to a Server with FrontPage extensions installed, expanding the technologies available to the web site. A search engine was added to the Support Home page. The e-mail links for Support were converted to online forms, and online registration was added.

• A password protected site was added in conjunction to the beta cycle of a new software product. Security was added to limit the site to use by beta testers only. A discussion group where beta users could help solve each others issues with the software was part of the Beta Test site as well.

Raptorweb

• Combining two of my passions, hockey and computers, I created this web site for one of the hockey teams I play for. The site was updated after each game. Sound bites summarizing each game are available from the site.

My Web Site

http://www.triviaart.com/

• This web site serves as an online portfolio of my work as well as a site to experiment with new technologies and tools.

Tools

• Many tools have been used creating these sites. Here is a list of just some of them.
