  • Building customer-tracking web sites
    • Customers absolutely cannot stand to be left out of the loop -- as well they should be.
    • The best way to let your customers find out what's going on, is to communicate -- which takes time that you don't have.
    • The best way to communicate without putting yourself out there is by creating a web site holding all the information available on your project.
    • With a web site you have the distinct advantage of being able to update as things get done, and when it's convenient for you, while letting the customer get the information when it's convenient for them
    • Mac OS X has Apache, the best web server available, built into it -- use it to your advantage
    • Mac OS X also has several scripting languages built in; create sites that are as easy to update as they are to read
