He is an Assistant Professor in the Robert Busch School of Design within the Michael Graves College at Kean University.

PROFESSOR ED JOHNSTON’S WEBSITE CHEAT SHEET CHOOSING BETWEEN A WEBSITE BUILDER AND DEVELOPING YOUR OWN WEBSITE There are lots of different ways to build a website. Some require technical expertise to set up hosting and manage files on servers, as well as web development experience in coding languages such as HTML, CSS, and Javascript. However, you can also put together a website without any of those skills: website builders—tools that allow website construction without manual code editing—are easy to use and suitable for anyone with a basic understanding of technology. If you can post photos or videos to Facebook, then you meet the minimum requirements to use them. So which sort should you select? The following lists can help clarify what you need to consider. Benefits of using website builders: • You do not need web development experience or programming knowledge. • They are easy to learn, and you can build websites with them quickly. • Everything works, so you do not have to worry about compatibility issues, bugs, or broken functionality. • The website hosting provider takes care of the technical maintenance; you can focus on content. • With website builders, you can build everything from small brochure-type websites to full e-commerce stores. Benefits of developing your own website and managing a web hosting solution: • You have more freedom over the visual design. © 2016 Ed Johnston. All rights reserved.

  • How Indirect Intermediaries Shape Online Speech
    Mitchell 1 Anna Mitchell Professor Nate Persily INTLPOL 323 December 16, 2018 Hidden Censors: How Indirect Intermediaries Shape Online Speech 1. Introduction “Literally, I woke up in a bad mood and decided someone shouldn’t be allowed on the internet. No one should have that power.” After a whirlwind five days of social media protests and internal tension, Matthew Prince, the CEO of Cloudflare, an Internet-services company, decided to terminate its contract with The Daily Stormer. The Internet’s most popular neo-Nazi website had vanished from the Web.1 Cloudflare’s content distribution network (CDN), improving the Stormer’s performance and protecting it from distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks, had allowed the site to stay afloat for months or years. But that changed in 2017 during a period of tense racial relations in the United States. From August 11 to 12, the Daily Stormer helped organize the white supremacist Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville, Virginia. Soon after, it published articles calling murdered protestor Heather Heyer a “sloppy lard ass” and labeling her death an accidental heart attack.2 Reaction was swift. The next day, activist Amy Suskind tagged web hosting service GoDaddy in a Twitter post: “@GoDaddy you host The Daily Stormer - they posted this on their site. Please retweet if you think this hate should be taken down & banned.”3 Within 24 hours, GoDaddy responded by withdrawing hosting services. When the Stormer tried to switch to Google, it soon followed suit.4 Zoho refused to provide email service,5 and Twitter shut down Mitchell 2 associated accounts.6 With multiple major companies withdrawing services, it became increasingly difficult for the Stormer to host and propagate content.

    Chapter 1: Domain Registration and Hosting In This Chapter ✓ Selecting a domain name for your site ✓ Getting help from domain name generators ✓ Registering a domain name ✓ Researching the best hosting plan ✓ Designing and uploading a placeholder page for the new domain his chapter focuses on what you need to do to prepare your site for Tpublishing on a host server. You find out about domain name selection, name generators, domain verification, and domain registration. You also discover how to find a good hosting plan, including what to look for in a plan, where to find a host, and general pricing structures. The last part of this chapter shows you how to create a customized placeholder page, which is a single, simple web page with company branding, an e-mail link, and a smattering of other contact information that can hold the place on a new domain until the new website is fully built and ready to publish. Understanding How to Get Your Site Online Before you can make a new website available on the Internet, it must first be assigned its own special web address,COPYRIGHTED which is commonly referred to MATERIALas the domain name. The process of acquiring a domain name can be a fun adventure and only requires a little bit of work. To start with, someone needs to think of a good name for the site and then check to see whether that name is available for use or has already been taken. If the desired name is available, the name needs to be registered, and that can be done either through a domain registrar or a host provider.
