Personal: My wife, Jane, and I live with our daughter and two granddaughters on "Beautiful Whidbey Island". We have two dogs, a dozen cats, a couple of geese and about 40 chickens that roam around the property. We also care for 11 rescued pet goats.

I am currently promoting two startups -- Hyperlocal Community Classifieds, is designed to return fully a third of its profits back to its host communities to fund good works and Global Action Connection, designed to enhance and coordinate the efforts of progressive organizations worldwide. Professional: I have an MBA and a Masters in Education and Psychology. My teaching career focused on Special Education; my business career focused on business systems architecture, application and database design and project management. Much of my IT work was as a consultant/contractor in Silicon Valley for major corporations such as Oracle, Sun Microsystems and Lockheed, as well as various startups. I have spent about 20 years in each of these two professions, switching back and forth as circumstances dictated.

Whenever I wanted something a bit out of the ordinary, he researched possible solutions and provided me with several different options. He was very professional and helpful, and was even willing to come to my house for meetings. Thanks Jim!"

This site promotes Christopher's counseling and therapy services. It makes good use of the photo gallery option. I am particularly happy with the color scheme we chose, based on the header image. "Jim Hyde and his Professional Services of website building and creation came in very handy for me. I had a low budget at the time and I needed a website as soon as possible. Jim came in and gave me exactly that. And although it's been a couple years my website is still operational and still meets my needs. It continues to draw just the right amount of clients that I need to keep my Psychotherapy practice up and running. I highly recommend his services especially if you're on a low budget and you want the option to do some of the work yourself Jim is the guy for you." visit the site...
