Purpose

inette.com is "a non-commercial portal website, a starting point for internet beginners, and the home of: The Aeronette, Internet Beginners Tutorial (IBT), and The Tennisnette." 

I call it a non-commercial Portal Website because I believe that is fits the definition,
as found at www.whatis.com as follows:

"Portal is a new term, generally synonymous with gateway, for a World Wide Web site that is or proposes to be a major starting site for users when they get connected to the Web or that users tend to visit as an anchor site."

It is non-commercial because www.inette.com does not contain any paid advertisements.

It is a starting point for internet beginners.  I am attempting to create a user friendly environment for them.  A place where they can be comfortable.

And it is the home of The Aeronette, because of my interest in aviation. (I am a computer simulator pilot only, but always wanted to be a licensed pilot...even volunteered for the Air Force quite a few years ago. Who knows, maybe someday I'll just go and get my pilot's license!

The home of the Internet Beginners Tutorial (IBT), because I felt there is/was a need for some easy to follow, easy to understand help...beyond the classroom, and outside of books for new internet users.

And finally, it is the home of The Tennisnette. 

 

About the author

I teach computer courses at NWTC-Marinette and my son Jason (Jace's Internet) and I team teach computer workshops at UW-Marinette.  (The courses include all MS Office Products, Windows95-98, Internet 101, Web Page Building (beginning and advanced), Adobe Photoshop, Digital Camera, Internet Shopping, Get to Know Your Hardware, Get to Know Your Software, and College For Kids - Internet 101 and Web Page Building.

We figured out that we have been "toying" with computers for more than 20 years now and we both really enjoy teaching computer applications and the internet.  Our first computer was a Timex Sinclair 2000!

 www.inette.com has developed into a convenient place to store/display everything from computer workshop calendars to on-line syllabi and course outlines (click on NWTC or UW-Marinette links above.)  It is also a convenient tool for teaching the internet.  Recently, it has taken shape as a Portal Website, a starting point for internet beginners,  and I am currently in the process of building my Internet Beginners Tutorial (IBT) Pages.

My first experience with building web pages was early in 1996.  I and a co-worker became Certified Web Masters.  We trained in Madison, and then built one of the 1st 10 bank web pages in the State of Wisconsin... www.fmmarinette.com  We both enjoy working on the bank's web pages and keep it current and up to date.

My personal web page began in Dec. 1996 as a repository for all of my favorites/bookmarks, and a place for all of my midi files, and has developed into a teaching/learning/educational tool for myself and for my students. It is still a repository for all of my favorites - bookmarks.  Since the beginning in 1996, my web page has changed many times. From my first experiences with the internet, I got "hooked" on midi music. I started to add midis to all of my pages, then started The Midindx, as part of my personal web page.  Early in 1999, my son Jason and I decided to join forces on The Midindx.  So, my midi collection is now on it's own domain - www.midindx.com

It has grown considerably since we "teamed" up.  It contains nearly 400 great sounding midis, links to composers and performers, and lots of pictures too. Jace does a lot of the graphics on the web pages, since he is very talented in that regard.  I sweep the floors and make sure the doors are locked at night! :-)

In addition to team-teaching with me at UW-Marinette, Jason does part-time computer consulting.
His new business is called The PC Guys.  His partner is Chris Gierke of Green Bay.  They boast that they...
make house calls.  And...in fact, they do.

My little sister Mariss makes a neat product called  the Webpatch ™ and sells them at her website called BayBum Etc.  (As an aside, she took our web page building class at UW-Marinette...and PASSED!)  

My daughter Teena Cook Katzbeck also does web pages.  She and her daughter Zoe have developed a very popular Oz website called:  Zoe's Oz Pages.  Unlike my sister Mariss, Teena learned all about web page building on her own...ok...with a little help from her brother and dad!

I am a member of:  HTML Writers Guild (HWG), International Webmasters Association (IWA), and the Internet Society (ISOC).
