Is iWeb Good for Blogging, compared to free software?

I'm trying to decide if it's worthwhile to continue using iWeb for my blog. It's a little cumbersome, it's hard to set up sitemaps and increase traffic, and it doesn't always work very well.
Any honest opinions comparing it to Blogger, WordPress, and VOX? Should I continue on with iWeb and hope it gets better, or are the other options simpler and better?

For many people the deciding factor is the ability to make blog entries quickly and easily via a browser from any machine or location. I don't see iWeb's blog ever having this feature.

  • 24" iMac any good for games (compared to Mac Pro)

    Hi,
    I'm on my second Mac Pro and after no end of trouble so i'm hoping to exchange it for a 24" imac but i was wondering if it's any good for games?
    I would probably configure it with the 7600gt and maybe the 2.33ghz proccessor.
    My mac pro with the x1900xt ran Quake 4 and Doom3 etc at full stettings really well but i've just had to much trouble with it!

    The iMac would be fine for games for now, but you are stuck with the configuration that you purchase as there is no way (for now) to upgrade the video card.
    There is a thought that some OEMs might make an upgrade card, but as of now there are none.
    The big advantage of the Mac Pro is that it has the PCI-express video card that you can remove the stock card from and add a newer, better card.

  • IWeb - looking for replacements for 'blog' & 'photos'

    With a deep Sigh..., I am finally facing up to the fact that I must move my iWeb Websites to another hosting sight and deal with the loss of the intergrated blog & photo pages that come with iWeb.  I kept hoping for a miracle but now I must get on with it.  I would be grateful for advice from those who have dealt with this issue already. 
    My biggest concern is finding suitable replacements for the blog and photo galleries that can be embedded into iWeb having a matching 'look and feel'.
    I have developed many robust (well of 50) websites with iWeb and they are active websites.   The websites have:
    Custom layouts (i.e. not using the suppled defalut template)
    Blog pages (used as 'News' entries)
    Photo pages
    iMovie
    HTML Snipits
    Many have been designed for use with charity events and recieve quite a bit of traffic (see stats below) before and during the event.
    As for the hosting - we will use GoDaddy or other Domain Provide with Hosting services.   We have already moved some of the more less complicated websites over. 
    I love iWeb (I know it has it's faults and I have probably pushed it to it's limits but it has handled it well).  I have tried looking at other products like Rapidweaver & Freeway Pro (Dreamweaver would be out of the question for me as I'm not a programmer - I can deal with some basic html code for snippets and such - but that's my limit).  My partner has begun looking at Wordpress.  However, the biggest drawback from what I've seen from these other products is that I can't duplicate the freedom and ease of designing a template/layout the way I want it.  I have tried to duplicate a website I have done in iWeb and I simply can't do it with these other products (at least without a great deal of work - if at all).
    So, I wish to continue using iWeb for the main website desgin but desparately need to find good replacements for the blog and photo galleries to move over my existing websites.
    Please HELP!  
    This is my 1st time up on the forums so I do apologise if this has been dealt with before.  In my searches - I just haven't really found an answer which is why I'm submitting this question.
    Many thanks, MichelleSC
    P.S. I have been an Apple user since Apple began and have always raved about their products.   This is the 1st time I have been frustration with Apple.  I really wish they would continue to develop iWeb and keep Mobileme.

    Do you have visitors post comments to your blog or it is one the only includes your entries?  If it's the atter then you can continue to use the iWeb blog. If you currently have visitors comment on the entires you will have to move to a new blogging system, one of those suggested by Ethmoid and Jeff.
    As for photo albums I've just run across a new site called ZangZig which offers albums similar to MobileMe galleries with most of it's features plus one that MMe didn't have.  The capability of selling your photos. 
    One convenient feature of it is that it can move/copy photos from your existing MMe galleries as well as your iPhoto library and other sources:
    As for for iWeb can do after MMe is gone read the following:
    On June 30, 2012 MobileMe will be shutdown. HOWEVER, iWeb will still continue to work but without the following:
    Features No Longer Available Once MobileMe is Discontinued:
    ◼ Password protection
    ◼ Blog and photo comments
    ◼ Blog search
    ◼ Hit counter
    ◼ MobileMe Gallery
    Currently if the site is published directly from iWeb to the 3rd party server the RSS feed and slideshow subscription features will work. However, if the site is first published to a folder on the hard drive and then uploaded to the sever with a 3rd party FTP client those two features will be broken.
    All of these features can be replaced with 3rd party options.
    There's another problem and that's with iWeb's popup slideshows.  Once the MMe servers are no longer online the popup slideshow buttons will not display their images.
    Click to view full size
    However, Roddy McKay and I have figured out a way to modify existing sites with those slideshows and iWeb itself so that those images will display as expected once MobileMe servers are gone.  How to is described in this tutorial: iW14 - Modify iWeb So Popup Slideshows Will Work After MobileMe is Discontinued.  There's a link in the tutorial to download the file that one needs to be edited and replaced in existing slideshows and in the iWeb application for future slideshows. Once replaced in the application it's back to life as usual for iWeb.

  • Free Goods for Materials from the same division

    Hi Friends,
    We are trying to configure free goods based on customer and division in our system. If a customer orders any material belonging to a specific division, he is entitled for a free good.
    For this we created a new condition table based on customer and division and maintained condition records that if he orders 100 qty of any material in Division 10 that he is entitled for 1 qty of material X.
    Now the problem is that at the time of creating the sales order if Material A is entered for qty 50 and Material B is for qty 50 then the system does not give free goods. However, if we enter Materail A for 100 qty it gives the free goods 1 qty of Material X. Similarly, for Mat B with 100 qty it gives Mat X as free goods.
    The system is not adding up the quantities for the multiple line items to calculate the free goods.
    Is there any way by which we can achieve this.
    Regards,
    Abhishek

    Hi,
    So far me too have configured and getting free goods for one material. for your requirement, i think you have to tell your Abaper to do corresponding Enhancement.
    Thanks

  • Free Goods for sales order

    There are two sales order type standard(A) and promotion(C) defined in our business.
    when we create standard order it will goods automatically capture the free goods we maintaind.
    However for promotion order, the system shows below message:
    Free goods could not be determined for item 000001
    Document category is not from sales order category (VBTYP <> 'C')
    whether it is unable to use free goods for order type "C"?
    Please advice,
    Many thanks,
    Yang

    Dear Yadav
    There are two order type ZAA1 - standard  ZAA2 - promotion
              two item cateogry ZDC0 - standard  ZDC1 - free of charge.
    I made a test to change the item category assignment as ZAA1 with ZDC1 and ZAA2 with ZDC0.
    Still the free goods can automatically captured with standard order but promotion failed.
    So I think the difinition of item category is no problem and it may related to sales order type.
    My colleague told me it is unable to use free goods for the sales order which SD document category is not "C".
    I try to change the SD document categ from I to C for promotion order and the free goods appear.
    So the result is if i define the SD document category as I that I can't use function of free goods?
    Please advice
    Many thanks,
    Yang

  • Free Goods for QT order Types

    Can I use automatic Free goods determination for QT order types.
    however i am using it for OR right now and i have done the related configuration for QT as well but system is not detmining Free Goods for QT order types.
    I have also maintained the below entry in "Determine Item Category for Free Goods Item"
    Sa Type   ItCGr         Usg.     HLevelItCa  DfltC
    QT            NORM      FREE     AGN           AGNN

    Hi
    Std SAP itself doesnt support Free Goods at quotation level
    Standard SAP supports Free Goods at quotation level and hence the item categories AFNN and AGNN are provided in the standard SAP. But,  the Automatic determination of Free Goods is not possible for SD documents under category other than 'C'.
    In your scenario...since the automatic determination is not possible, think about handling the functionality manually or through user exits.

  • Multiple free goods for one item in standalone CRM

    Hi Gurus,
    We are trying to implement multiple free goods for one item in standalone CRM.
    As per SAP.help.com, it says that we can configure multiple free goods scenario in standalone CRM system.
    We tried to set up this in our system.  Basically we want to implement the scenario, where a user wants to  purchase item A, he should get a prompt for choosing between two free goods  B and C.
    We did the relevant IMG settings required for Free goods at  IMG ->CRM -> Basic Functions -> Free Goods.-> Set up Free Goods
    We also did the relevant item category determination where we have made an entry with
    Item Usage = " Free Goods" , Main item cat. = "TAN' , Item Category = "TANN".
    Now we went to create condition records in the path  "SAP Menu -> Master Data -> Prices and Conditions -> SAPCND/GCM - Maintain condition"
    We chose Application ="PRT", MaintenanceGrp="PRT_FGOODS", Maintenance context ="GCM"
    Then while creating conditon records , when I try to create two condition records where the Main Product is same but free good product is different, the system is not allowing to save these two condition records.
    it is giving error "Overlapping validity periods for two condition records".
    Please advice, if i am missing something. Thanks in advance for your help.
    thanks,

    Good for what sort of business? To do what? There are hundreds if not thousands of free or inexpensive apps that might be useful to you, so without any sort of parameters on which to base suggestions, making recommendations is all but impossible. Search the web for "iphone business apps" and you'll find a number of articles with suggestions and opinions; you might find those a useful place to start.
