Web Design For Plastic Surgeons
Well 3d-plasticsurgery.com ( one of my web companies) just finished a project for a plastic surgeon in Portland. This doctor is a very good plastic surgeon whom I have had personal expirence with. His technique is meticulous and he is a trained microsurgeon such as myself. In fact that is how I know him from our microsurgery training in one of the most difficult fellowships of our generation. This was with Dr. Julia Tezis at the microsurgical institute in Virginia.
The problem is that he does not believe in showing pre and post op photos of his work on the internet. Bad choice I believe but never the less its his decision and one he has to make. Patients these days from my experience are even taught to ask to see the photos. We have them all over our sites. Its great marketing and the consumer of plastic surgery services wants this.
Well we compromised and simply added a link to his web site which shows generic before and after photos from the main plastic surgery societies web site. This was my stroke of genius in that we also clearly added a disclaimer stating his position. We solved two problems at once, respected our clients wishes and gave the consumer what they wanted. Such a fine line we walk in advertising and trying to do our best for our client.
If any of you want to see the web site www.fortesplasticsurgery.com . Comments to me are always welcome.

Otaku オタク
Here is great word -as I try to learn Japanese. I always likes this word オタク it means geek in Japanese and pronouced O-TA-KU. It has a lot more negative meaning in Japanese then the American word Geek however. Geek in american culture is like Bill Gates. In Japan , オタク almost is like a bum , sorta of a useless creature who lives in the computer world in his parents upstairs room. A true オタク will also go down to Akahebara which is the electronic section of Tokyo and hang out perhaps at a Maid Cafe. If you want look into this weirdness (hen na no in Japanese) search on “maid cafe Tokyo”.
The maids cafe concept is now in many coutries inculuding one I found in Singapore. Its hard to explan you just have to expierence it.
Well as my web design company starts to produce more web sites and handle our clients I am feeling more like an Otaku than a Plastic Surgeon which I guess is the point of this rambling. The next step for me is to hang out at the Maid’s Cafe and get some Moee. Moee is something you will have to find on your own and once you know what it is let me know.
Until next time

Iphone and me
Well as a bit of a geek or as the Japanese say, an otaku I own an Iphone. This I suppose is a mark of a geek, much like having a gmail address early. I am trying out this blog program and will publish from my Iphone. I did want to say, that as our web company grows to stay ahead of the game no time can be wasted. So since I am waiting for my ride to lunch the Iphone helps me save time, as I blog from the phone. As to advise to my clients, if your going to blog check the Iphone to help with no waste time blogging.
