I agree with the fact that our phones, TV's, video games, etc. are causing our generation to lose some of our social skills and imagination but i don't think that we should completely cut technology out of our life. There are many benefits to it such as helping us connect with distant family members and friends. I believe we should learn to put our phones away without feeling the constant of needing to have it in our hand. We need to regain the ability to have a conversation with someone without constantly looking  at our phones during silences and start using our phones only during appropriate times.

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. 

The page of a Web site that the user sees first before being given the option to continue to the main content of the site. Splash pages are used to promote a company, service or product or are used to inform the user of what kind of software or browser is necessary in order to view the rest of the site's pages.

 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 have my Index done and multiple pages but they aren't completely finished or linked up. I don't think i can be finished by the end up the hour. I could probably finish with two more days in class and maybe staying after school. There was one day when we had a sub and we couldn't really move on or do anything because we didn't know how to link our pages.

My spring break was pretty good! First, i went to South Carolina with my family to tour College of Charleston and then stop in Myrtle Beach for a fun day! Then we drove up to North Carolina where i Visited East Carolina University and University of North Carolina! UNC was definitely my favorite! Once i got back, a few friends and i drove up to Mizzou to visit my friends sister! We did a lot of shopping and walking around and we got to celebrate St. Patrick's Day and my birthday while we were down there. Once we got back i just hung out with my friends and worked!

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, although it is a lot more advanced and a lot more work than the last projects we've done! Yes I think I've benefited from the brainstorming sheet because i have it all figured out right now rather than coming up with it along the way; it was very helpful.

What product have you decided to feature/sell on your product website? Explain why you've chosen this product and remember, the sky is the limit on this project!

I choose Webkinz,small plush toys that have an attached tag with a unique "Secret Code" printed on it that allows access to the "Webkinz World" website, because there are a lot of directions i could go with this product. It's also a un project wit lots of colors and games and such.

What was your takeaway from this Travel Site? What did you learn that you didn't know before? How will the knowledge of how we built this site help you improve your future websites?

I learned multiple things such as how to edit pictures and how to make them look more advanced and interactive on the website. This will help me with future websites by making my websites more professional-looking.
