Prototype Is Running

It has been a long road since we made the decision at the end of 2016 to fire our service provider, and take control of MotivateUs.com. Just like in any science we needed to understand the hows. Which we have.

There are many parts of the site that are using a new skin, look, feel and navigation system. If you would like to see what is live and running inside of the prototype. It can be view here by clicking See Whats Live .

Please remember, this is only the prototype, and beginning. Comming towards the end of the year, we will be bring many more pages live, a expand skins and navigation system.

Be patient and pardon our dust. A Community Site Is In Motion.

Web Services Are Running

The MotivateUs.com service layer is in place.

  • A web service is any piece of software that makes itself available over the internet and uses a standardized XML messaging system. XML is used to encode all communications to a web service. For example, a client invokes a web service by sending an XML message, then waits for a corresponding XML response. As all communication is in XML, web services are not tied to any one operating system or programming language–Java can talk with Perl; Windows applications can talk with Unix applications.
  • Web services are self-contained, modular, distributed, dynamic applications that can be described, published, located, or invoked over the network to create products, processes, and supply chains. These applications can be local, distributed, or web-based. Web services are built on top of open standards such as TCP/IP, HTTP, Java, HTML, and XML.
  • Web services are XML-based information exchange systems that use the Internet for direct application-to-application interaction. These systems can include programs, objects, messages, or documents.
  • A web service is a collection of open protocols and standards used for exchanging data between applications or systems. Software applications written in various programming languages and running on various platforms can use web services to exchange data over computer networks like the Internet in a manner similar to inter-process communication on a single computer. This interoperability (e.g., between Java and Python, or Windows and Linux applications) is due to the use of open standards.

The Introduction Has Happened

More for the technical group…. The cross reference between the original .htm web site and the new MotivateUs.com Content Management System system is running.

This is a good thing. They are aware of each other. CMS meet static… Static meet CMS…  Work well together!
