Where do you get your information? Seth Godin wrote a very interesting post about The New Digital Divide. It's not whether or not you have access to technology that counts--it's whether you choose to engage with the growing online conversation represented by blogs, Jon Stewart, and Google, or get your world view from Fox News.

How much do you spend on your website? I'm not asking how much it cost you to create/build -- I mean day to day, what does it cost to own and maintain your site?
And what happens if you stop paying that?

Picking a technology for internal use
The only kinds of proprietary software Freelock actually pays for are development and testing tools – tools we use to actually create our work products, or provide us with access to tools we otherwise can’t support (e.g. testing across a bunch of browsers we don’t have).

Picking a technology for a client project
Aside from the technologies we choose to develop expertise in and market prominently, we can support a range of related technologies without much trouble. Given our experience and expertise, this means we’re comfortable in just about anything in PHP. If a client comes to us with an existing platform and want our support with it, we’re happy to provide it.
