The Web Site

There is a difference between a Web Site and a Blog Site.
But then everybody knows that. Let us try, how.

"Tranquil pleasures last the longest; we are not fitted
to bear the burden of great joys."

Dance Web Sites are the equivalent of Magazines in the Pubishing fields and are more into sales. The sale of their club or other dance organizational functions. Dance teachers, dance parties, dance lessons, workshops, showcases, festivity dances, shoes and dance costumes.

They usually have the info on the top brass easily available. Monthly and even yearly schedules, photo and video albums, club history and other pertinent information of potential interest to their reader/members.

Dance Web site members come to a site to look for specific information. That information does not need to be new. It just needs to be what the reader/dancer is looking for and they are usually subdivided into a number of complicated pages.

These tools allow dance clubs to create beautiful sites with compelling content, but they don't allow neophytes or non-technical people to maintain content or add new content. They tend to look down on Bloggers and blogging.

But even with these sophisticated tools, most Web sites are static creations and most dance organizations view their Web sites as digital brochures. It's very rare for a traditional Web site to be updated more frequently than once every month or two.

The Blog Sites are next on the blog agenda and of course, you already know that they are much more current and that we are still seeking the elusive Information Contributor.

A. You suck.

Line dancing, remains as the best place for a person to get their "street" dancer smarts. We have on the ultra beginners side, just walking to the music, zombie like. On the other extreme are those that are shaking their heads, shoulders, hips, legs, feet and toes. Somewhere in between is the real Universal dancer coming through, who is completely enjoying the movement to music, “in the correct way,” that is the natural way and they are never stuck together at the second rib.

When they get into ballroom dancing they have it made in the shade, they are dancers. Da Reel Teeng.
