I agree that a lot of people miss a lot of things do to technology. Technology takes up a lot of people's time these days and they use that to talk to their friends instead of actually hanging out with them, and even when they do hang out together most of their time is spent on technology and nothing else. I also disagree with him to a point because you can meet people on the internet and become friends with them which can lead to travel later in your life to see them.

What is a 'splash page'? Look it up. Explain what they are and how they are used. Find an example of a splash page in Google Images. Save the image to you computer and then upload it to your blog post.

It's the page that you see before you officially enter a website that is typically promoting something. They are used to draw the users eye to that thing they are promoting and make them want to check it out more, it's basically like an advertisement. It works by being the first thing that pops up when you go to that website, it will have the thing being promoted and a button on there typically at the bottom that allows you to enter the full website.

What do you think about it? What is the teacher trying to say? In your own words explain what "the main event" is. Do you agree or disagree with the writer?

I think it is interesting to see things from a teachers point of view. The teacher is trying to say that he doesn't care just about the grades or the learning, he also cares about the students as people. He is also trying to say school isn't just about learning it's also about the social part and dealing with the little problems, such as gossip, to become mentally and emotionally stronger. The main event is basically learning how to deal with the simple things that can effect you and make your life harder. I agree with the writer that school really does teach you about how to deal with the simple things that can easily make your life difficult, it really helps with work and other things just like it.

Status update! Tell me where  you are at on your product website? Can you be finished by tomorrow at the end of the hour? Do you need more time? How much more time? Be honest and explain yourself.


 I've got like 4 pages done on my website. I feel like I can get quite a bit of it done today. I don't think I will be able to finish by tomorrow at the end of the hour though. I'm probably gonna need the block day to finish.

Welcome back! How was your Spring Break? Tell me all about it. You've been out of school for 10 days so I know you will have plenty to share. Make it good!

For Spring Break I went to St. Louis for the Neon Lights Tour. I got to meet Fifth Harmony twice and met some people. I also got a job and worked for two days. At work I was in charge of taking money from the drive thru. Other than that I did nothing but sit at home watching tv.

Do you like the layout of this project? Have you benefited from your brainstorming sheet? Was it more helpful or annoying when starting to map out your website? Explain why.

Yes I like the layout of this project. I highly benefited from the brainstorming sheet and I believe it was more helpful because you aren't just going out on a whim to see what your website turns out to look like and you already have the basics laid out so you just have to copy it.

After reading below to see where you should be on your product website - are you caught up? What helps you stay caught up in class? Do you like having small checkpoints? Are you behind? If so, what are you going to do to get caught up?

I'm a little behind on my product website. I just have to make my footer and I will be all caught up with the things that should be done today. Having small check points really helps because you know what you have to have done by a certain time, which makes it easier to stay caught up.
