5. Testimonial
“Gifford is one of the most unusual people I've met in
technology -- in a good way. Here is a guy who grew up
a Nova Scotia lobsterman (he's shared lobster recipes
with me) and was educated as a minister...and without
shedding either of those identities built a serious tech
company about as far geographically from Silicon
Valley as you can get. He's won the attention of
Microsoft and the U.S. Military. And he's always been
willing to share his expertise with me. All in all, Giff is a
great story.”

7. TICKET TO RIDE
Microsoft says… it’s okay.
DotNetNuke says… it’s okay.
Websites, shacks, hovels, abandoned,
orphaned, widowed, diseased, out dated…
HTML, Word Press, CFM…
Convert them all!
11. THE STATUS QUO
Websites are created by webmasters
creating a “web slave” situation.
DotNetNuke sets web slaves free.
House keys, car keys… web keys.
