Objectives of this site
The Spreadsheet Page has undergone many changes, but the objectives have remained the
same:
- Provide a central source for information about Microsoft
Excel.
When this web site was first created, it focused on spreadsheets of all
types. Currently, the focus is Microsoft Excel. That's because Excel owns the spreadsheet
market and is (IMHO) the only spreadsheet product that's suitable for advanced application
development.
- Emphasize content, not flash.
You won't find any pop-up windows or advertising banners here, and the only products that are pitched are my
own software and books -- and I try to keep the hype to a minimum. You'll find lots of
good (and free) information here, yours for the taking.
- Keep it simple.
I've avoided bandwidth-eating features such as huge graphics and multimedia, and you'll
never need to download any ActiveX controls or plug-ins in order to access the information
here (well, there is one exception in the jokes section). I've also avoided the use of frames, since many users included find them
annoying. And, clicking a link will hardly ever open a new instance
of your browser (if it does, you'll know in advance).
- Keep it fresh.
I try to add a steady flow of new information to the site. Since
J-Walk
& Associates is a very small company, the updates aren't as frequent as the larger
sites. But I try to add new material every 7-10 days. At least I used
to.
Problems?
I've tested all of the pages using Microsoft Internet Explorer and
Firefox. If your browser has any problems with this site, please let me know. |
