Page Mill North Services
In 2007 this very small (one person) Toronto company began to offer friendly, one-on-one services across a wide variety of technology and technology-related areas, including websites, technical writing, home entertainment systems, personal computers, and digital photography.
Website Services

Website service activities have expanded far more and faster than expected, and Page Mill North (PMN) has become the webmaster for European Castles Tours, a German company offering castles tours there and in central Europe. I've completely re-developed the website of www.europeancastlestours.com , including a new home page, upgrades of the main tour description pages, and the addition of many support pages. I'm the designer, writer, and engine-room webmaster. The best way for you to gain an appreciation for the quality of the work performed is to explore the Castles site for yourself.
Although the Castles Tours site consists of many pages, I also do very simple one-page sites when that's what's required. Here's a single page in English I did to add to a multi-page German site for the Landhaus Kössel:

Your own website may be a business necessity, a personal convenience, or just for fun. Website creation assistance is available for beginners, or you can have the work done for you.
This is not a big company and it will not be focusing on big website projects. Site designs are clean, functional, and professional, but do not incorporate many bells or whistles. Maybe your project is modest and doesn't need or want to include the kitchen sink. Maybe this is the company you're looking for.
Technical and General Writing Services
My background experience spans many different fields, but the one common thread is that my progress through these areas has depended heavily on my abilities as a writer. My writing experiences range all over the map: academic theses, television scripts, building and systems specifications, user manuals for software systems, crown corporation policy documents, and now castles tours descriptions. Whatever the subject, my emphasis is always on making things clear.
Personalized Technology Assistance
The home theatre revolution is the next major leap in technology facing many Canadians these days.
- Home theatre technologies (HDTV, 5.1 and 7.1 surround sound, high definition DVDs, etc.) continue to evolve rapidly, and the options can be overwhelming.
- Many people are facing complex system design, equipment selection, and installation decisions with only commission-motivated salespersons as their guides.
- I can give you as much (or as little) totally independent help as you wish -- in designing, selecting, and / or installing individual components or complete systems. (I do not sell equipment.)
Advances in personal computers also continue at breakneck pace.
- Need help to specify all the options and software for a new or replacement desktop or notebook? With setup?
- Need help with Windows or Microsoft Office programs? Individual tutorial assistance is available, tailored to your experience level and interests.
Digital photography, another aspect of the digital revolution, is yet another area with improved quality, lower prices, and improved ease-of-use. Individual help is available for equipment selection, familiarization, or photo editing. (Much of the photography on the Bavarian and Rivers Castles Tours pages and galleries of the Castles of the World Tours website is my work.)
Page Mill North also continues to provide media consulting and research services to broadcasting industries.
