What's new at
Will-Harris House?
1999: If you're a regular here, then you've noticed that we haven't made many changes lately. Well, there's a good reason (read: excuse) for this! We've been busy building a completely new site called eFuse.com, the friendly place to learn how to build a better web site.
Click here to visit this great new site. You'll be glad you did.
Why eFuse? Everyone and their dog needs to build a web site these days. But even with the best software there's all sorts of stuff a mammal has to understand before it can create a truly useful site. Finding accurate and reliable info on the web today can be difficult, and when you do find it, it's usually so technical it can make your head explode.
eFuse.com offers information, inspiration, and assistance written in plain English by professional writers and designers so it's easy to understand and apply. eFuse.com is for everyone who wants to build a more attractive and effective web site. Learn what you need, painlessly. No experience necessary. You'll be web-savvy in no time
Other sites are for technology professionals. eFuse.com is for professionals who use technology.
eFuse is about providing solutions to your most common problems. One reader wrote: "It seems as though you've figured out the major mistakes people make, and then written (or gathered) information that helps them overcome or avoid those mistakes." That's exactly what we try to do.
