For nearly 20 years I have dabbled in website development, primarily as the
volunteer webmaster for the Iowa Ornithologists' Union. Over time I
received the occasional inquiry from other organizations and in 2009 formed
AJEndeavors, LLC. My small business
targets non-profit organizations in need of a web presence. Most use a
database for information storage and all are designed with simplicity in mind.
The intent is to create an organizational tool that can be easily managed by the
members.
Many of my sites are very data intensive. The Iowa and Missouri birding
sites collect data on rare birds while Iowa also collects seasonal sightings and
Important Bird Area data. The IOU partners with the Iowa Audubon site in
sharing this data for various reports. Breeding Bird Atlas projects in
Iowa and Evergreen, Colorado are totally web based as are odonata sites for Iowa
and Arizona.
Textual content is maintained using a simple text editor and updating external
files. This simplicity turns anyone who can use a word processing program
into a webmaster. Check out more details on my
business site.
