Technologies</a></strong> (and Macstock Conference & Expo), we start with why your website is so important no matter what business or organization you represent.

<h3>Show Notes:</h3>
<p><strong>Guests:</strong></p>
<p><strong>Michael Potter </strong>offers computer consulting of all flavors through his company, <strong><a href="https://www.esctechnologiesgroup.com">ESC! Technologies Group</a></strong>, including building WordPress web sites. Fine him on Twitter as <a href="https://twitter.com/esctechgroup">@esctechgroup</a>. He is also the Executive Producer of<strong> <a href="http://www.formaceyesonly.com">For Mac Eyes Only</a></strong>, and the organizer of the annual<a href="http://macstockconferenceandexpo.com"><strong> Macstock Conference and Expo</strong></a>. Mike's love-affair for all things Apple began in his Junior High's Library playing Lemonade Stand on a pair of brand new Apple ][+ computers. His penchant for Apple gear continued to be nurtured by the public school system when, in High School, he was hired as a lab supervisor to help run the Apple ][e lab for his fellow students and their Print Shop needs. Then, further still, in college he often opted to help a friend with her Computer Graphics coursework instead of focusing on his own studies, but only because it helped get him closer to the Mac-lab.</p>
