Through out the course I have noticed that learning technology is much different than learning standard material. It seems as though people panic when a new technology is being taught because it is something they know nothing about. It is important to remember that we have been learning new concepts our whole life and just because a technology is being learned you shouldn't treat it different than any other materials. Once mastered it will be rewarding and useful because not many people are familiar with how to use the newer technology let alone create the websites.

There are many aspects of this class that are important and you should remember. Above all I think that networking relationships through the internet is most important. Relationships can be all kinds. Many internet relationships are business relationships like you would find on eBay. The internet provides many opportunities for people of similar interests to share with each other. They could share information and associate with each other like on a blog or you could develop more business relationships where you would deal or sell to people. The internet can be exploited in many ways to benefit each of us and I feel that networking to create relationships is the most important.

Fair use is a term that we can all relate to. This is especially good for us because in this class we will be using pictures and other items that we did not create but merely got from someone else. It would e a pain for all of us if we had tio get permission to use each image from the person that created it. It would be even harder to enforce leading us to the fair use laws. Many sites provide icons and pictures that are included in the fair use policy. One site that hosts many pictures that anyone can use is http://gimp-savvy.com/PHOTO-ARCHIVE/. Many more can be found by doing an internet search. Another example of material that is for everyone's use can be found by looking at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Creative_Commons.

In my website I intend to to give it a fun casual sort of look. It will look attractive as well as have good material on it. I want to design it around my interests having headings such as, professional information, school information and entertainment. Each category will have some pictures and links that will some what connect to my interests. The different parts of the website will appeal to different audiences. The professional part will appeal to employers where the entertainment will relate to anyone with my similar interests. I will most likely have problems designing the page to fit the relaxed feel that I am going for. Once again the format will largely reflect the audience it is intended for. It will be tough to make a difference between the two. I would also like to have some sort of music playing in the background, perhaps if you drag the cursor over a certain part of the screen.
