If you use apache as your webserver, your externally-viewable files will
be located in ~/public_html. Then you can set your home directory to
world read and search (so they can read the directory and search it to
find public_html). All the files in ~ can be whatever you like (world no
read/write, etc.), except public_html, which must be world
read/search, and the files in public_html, which of course must be world
read.
