Prominent Knoxville Church Launches New Website

When Sequoyah Hills Presbyterian Church in Knoxville, Tennessee was ready to upgrade their website, they wanted something that was visually attractive and easy to manage from anywhere. Allyte recommended a Joomla 1.5 CMS and left the design choice in their hands. In the end, the team chose a RocketTheme design because of its visual impact and feature set. Take a look at the final product below.

Online Meetings

There is no shortage of online meeting spaces these days. Everyone from Skype to Microsoft Google offers a way to have a face-to-face or screen to screen meeting online. I wrote about one of these online meeting space companies in an earlier post.

One of my favorite services, LogMeIn, has joined the fray with Join.me.

powered by WordPress Multibox Plugin v1.3.5

Join.me has a snazzy little website that is dead simple to use, as long as you’re on a Windows-based computer. The function is similar to that of LogMeIn123.com or ZohoAssist.com. The host computer downloads a file to setup the session, then the client enters a 9-digit code into the site to connect. The next time you have occasion for an online meeting, check out Join.me for a simple, free online meeting space.
