Lobster Services
"OK," you're thinking, "Lobster is cute and cool, but what can he do for ME?
Well, I'm glad you asked that, as a technically apt person, Lobster has acquired many marketable skills, and through his connections in the computer world he can also put you in touch with some excellent service providers (Who give Lobster kickbacks in some shape or form) but all of the services or products on here get the Online Lobster Seal of Approval!
HTML Coding started out as a hobby for me, but I seem to have gotten pretty good at it, I've done some neat things with Javascript and I think I've been pretty creative with my little cove here. I'm only getting better so hire me quick before you can't afford me!
Custom Computer Building actually started out of necessity, as a Systems Operator of a neat little local bulletin board I had to be constantly juggling around parts, often building complete computers from leftover bits. Add to this experience a couple of years of electronics training and a job at a HUGE Computer Store and I am left able to create a 100% IBM compatible clone with the best of them. In fact, oftentimes better! If you're considering buying a pre-fab unit DON'T! There are many reasons not to.
Scanning Pictures is fun, for the first 15 minutes, then you realize you don't really have that much to scan! DOH!! Oh well, my extravagance is your gain, I'll scan your photos for you for less than Kinko's that's for certain! And you can even choose what format and resolution! Also great if you want a Web page done, you can send me pictures to scan and put up.
Fund Raising can be a damn confusing process! You have to keep track of how many chocolates you've sold and how many you've eaten, your fingers get all squishy and waterlogged from washing cars all day, your teeth fall out from one too many slabs of peanut brittle. Well fear not! There is a new game in town and it won't melt in your hand or cause tooth decay!
Internet Advertising is not for the elite few! Now even YOU can have a URL! Whether you're an average Joe and want to stretch your newspaper advertising dollar by putting up a URL and having the lengthy description on the web, or whether you own a business and want to make information available to people 24 hours a day, 7 Days a week, a presence on the Web will give you all that and more, find out how to do this at a fraction of what any ISP would charge you!
Software Duplication on a large scale can be useful if you're like the hero in any of the recent hacker movies (Hackers, The Net, etc...) they run around getting shot at over the information contained on a diskette. Well, DUH! Why not duplicate that disk and pass copies out to people? Well, chances are you're not running for your life, but if you do need software duplication on a large scale, you can't beat these guys! Well, maybe you could but then they'd be bitter.
Computer Upgrades are so incredibly expensive! I was at a popular computer store the other day exchanging my malfunctioning monitor for a new one, and this couple whom I really felt bad for dragged in their computer and a hard drive for the techs there to install. They charged them $80 and said they'd have to keep it for a week! Ridiculous! I would have charged half that and had it done in 15 minutes, and even then my conscience would have troubled me! Oh well, I felt like stepping in and offering my services but I thought it would seem tacky, kind of like a lawyer hanging around emergency rooms.
Internet Access for the masses! I can set you up with full Internet access for a flat monthly fee, with no additional connect time charges like some other services I won't mention. *cou(AOL)gh* *ah(compuserve)em* *ac(prodigy)hoo* *sn(WOW!)ort*. Why the people I'd point you towards even give you 5 megs to put your own Web page up in!
Networking, confusing to most, exciting to me! I've dealt with Novell Networks, Microsoft Networks, 10 base 2 networks and all sorts of cool stuff! I have a network setup in my house! I have even been able to setup an internal TCP/IP network so that any computer can access the Internet when any of the computers is connected! Now that's talent! If you have more than one computer and you want to link them up to enhance your business (Like have happy employees who play network DOOM all the time) or even if you're just an average Joe who wants his home computers networked, let me know. It's not nearly as scary as U.S. West would have you believe!
