The St. Andrews Lutheran Church website offers users a wealth of information about the church, its activities and services. The site offers a simple and easy to use site maintenance and content management system, allowing any content to be modified without the need for technical skills. [screen]

Cruise Holidays International, Inc. (CHI) was the world's largest network of cruise-selling agencies, with over 200 locations throughout North America. This site was designed with several dynamic components, including a store locator, special offer alerts, and automatically changing design elements. CHI is now owned by Carlson Travel Network Associates, and although much of the original site design remains incorporated, many elements have since been modified. [screen] [screen] [screen]

Designed with a B-B-C business model similar to that of echo, TutorMeSmart.com is positioned as an online tutoring service management system for organizations such as universities, schools and churches [screen]. Served under an ASP (application service provider) model, TutorMeSmart.com subscribers can create a virtual community and meeting place for their members (e.g. students) and tutors/mentors [screen], or they can use the application online privately to administer a non-connected service. Additionally, tutors may be conditionally "shared" among communities, creating a sort-of global community for tutors and students.

The application benefits the ASP, the member (e.g. a school), the member's affiliates (e.g. tutors), and the students by providing detailed information [screen] including reports and listings [screen], ease of use and a high degree of customization for both the organization [screen] and the individual tutor [screen]. Using the TutorMeSmart.com service, an organization can have a fully automated tutoring service up and running online in just a few moments. Additionally, they can impose restrictions or qualifications on users of their service.

Due to the success of echo, this application did not receive the marketing and promotion it probably deserved.

This application parses a user-selectable GEDCOM file (specification v.5.5) and from it, builds a complete, interactive client-side DHTML application from that data [screen]. Users may selectively hide information [screen]. The client-side application exists in one HTML page, and is powered exclusively by JavaScript and DHTML. The JavaScript is fine-tuned and intentionally obfuscated [screen] to mazimize code security and minimize download time.

The release version will be presented as a Web service through which users may upload GEDCOM files and retrieve the resultant Web page, suitable for upload onto any personal web site.

This application is spurring a new project, in which I will complete a full grammar parser and wrapper object. This wrapper object will make the contents of an imported GEDCOM file visible to the developer and will provide XML output suitable for use with XSLT.

Before online calendars were ubiquitous, this B-B-C application was designed to be served as an ASP was available to provide a unique kind of calendaring service. It is shown here in the proof-of-concept stage of development. With this application can create any of a number of publicly accessible calendars [screen], complete with styles [screen], icons, views [screen], and the ability to delegate maintenance on a per-calendar basis.

This application is perfect for organizations like churches, where several different schedules of events are often made publicly available. One subscriber is given the ability to create up to a specific number of online calendars [screen], each with its own URL, events, style and password. In the case of a church, each group of parishioners (such as the Bible study group, or the acolytes) may maintain its own calendar of events [screen], all linked to directly from the main church web site.

Begun in 1998, this application was one of the first that catered specifically to the B-B-C business model. Due to the success of echo, however, the application was not fully developed or marketed.
