Doug Noble

President of ADWEB. Prior to 1999, Doug operated Promotion By Design, a marketing consulting, web design and hosting company in Miami. A data communications veteran, Doug has a B.Sc. in Engineering & Marketing and held senior technical and marketing communications roles with Equinox, Executive Data Systems/PerfectLaw and RTP Corp. Originally from Scotland, Doug has been resident in the USA for over 25 years.

In 1999, the company acquired the assets and client base of P&D Services, a web design boutique. Adweb now provides web hosting and onsite Consultation and Service to clients across the USA from New York City to Hawaii, and globally, serving clients in Canada, Colombia, Venezuela, Argentina, Mexico, England, France and Italy.

With its partners having strong pro-Macintosh backgrounds, it was natural for Adweb to specialize in Macintosh database web hosting. The company's first database driven website was the MacTalent Employment Registry, a free resource for employers to seek Macintosh talent.

This site is based on the popular FileMaker Pro database and Lasso, and allows prospective employers to enter ads online and search the database of talent. Since developing that first Filemaker site, Adweb has expanded its expertise to apply FileMaker database technology to searchable image databases, charter boat listings, and full ecommerce solutions.

While FileMaker was born as a Macintosh database, its creators FileMaker Inc. have migrated the popular database to the Windows platform, making it by far the easiest cross platform database solution available. FileMaker is fully relational and offers powerful web functionality. As a result, Adweb is able to host databases created on either platform.
