"I could have easily filled my website with descriptions and photos of my past projects. But I hated that option"

Am I missing something here? I checked out the site (http://www.coolbeansgroup.com/) and all I found was a static site created entirely in flash with no blog, rather, a couple of descriptions of past projects.

Where is this 'living site that focuses on the user's needs'?

This is one of the smartest articles I've read about developing website content. I'm always surprised when clients complain to me about having a time-intensive website to maintain. I've experienced the exact same thing described by Bob Knorpp, putting the time in to make my website interesting also makes me better at my overall job.

Thanks for the great tips. I'm going to start investigating the use of podcasts and video clips on my own website.
