Robert Abbett - Talents & Fields of Expertise Special Talents

This page will familiarize you with some of the technologies that I have become well versed in. They may prove to be useful to you. I am the owner/creator/operator of hotspotshawaii.com aka: Hawai`i's H4 and examples of all of these are online here.

Also familiar with the Windows 95 platform. I have developed an expertise in cross platform graphics, including the use of the Netscape and Web216 palettes. I have broken new ground in solving gamma compatibility differences between the Windows 95 and Macintosh platforms, especially relative to Photography, Quicktime, Quicktime VR Panoramas and Quicktime VR Object Movies.

I was the only person from the Pacific Rim selected to show Quicktime VR work on the first Apple Quicktime Vr Showcase CD rom. I was one of only twenty QTVR artists/practitioners from around the world invited to show examples of this technology in action. The disk was given out at MacWorld in San Francisco in January, 1997.

My web site has been online since January 6th, 1995, has served almost two million visitors and has won the following awards:

A Top 5% of all Web sites - (The Point)
A Magellan 3 Star Award
Netguide's Gold Web awards (3)
RealAudio Site of the Week Award
The Honolulu Weekly Reader's Poll, Best Local Web site 1996
Web Times Select Award for IRH, May 30th, 1997

I am aware that you may be using other technologies and platforms but I'm confident that you must know that a large amount of authoring is done on the Macintosh platform. Some of the technologies can only be created on the Mac but are viewable on other platforms. I am "bilingual".

I'll be happy to provide any additional information. Although I am primarily looking for a full time position, I am also available for specialty contract work, schedule permitting.

I hope to hear from you soon.

Aloha,

Robert "Rabbett" Abbett
