One of the assignments is to post something about technology. In typical me fashion, I don't know if the previous post about Flutter counts, so here is another one to make sure I get full credit. (Can you tell I come from a family full of teachers?) Yes, I know there is no grade to this, but, heck, even my blood type is A+. (Add that to your list, Chris, of things you are learning about SPL folks!)
Anyway, technology. I suffered a loss recently, and one of the folks in the support group I found talked about creating a website as a memorial. Hmm, I thought. I could probably do that. I took a HTML class in grad school! Then I remembered that, unlike all my other classes, I was glad that Florida State was adamant that everyone work in groups. Why, you ask? Because I had an honest-to-God website developer in my group! Our group assignment (to create a website for a fictitious businessman) turned out to be the best of the class, and I got an A for learning hardly anything about HTML. Nice for my GPA, but now what do I do?
So I googled "free websites" just for the heck of it, and I landed on weebly.com. It is quite easy to set up a very basic site--even the mourning doves in my backyard could do it. (and why not because the nest they are trying to make is never going to work!) I don't know how much time I will spend on it, but it is nice to know I have the opportunity to do something like that without spending hours learning programming first.

Why is Florida State emphasized? Just because Burt Reynolds attended doesn't mean a whole lot.
ReplyDeleteYou know that I had to sign an oath to never disparage Mr. Reynolds. But perhaps you'd prefer talking about Faye Dunaway, Paul Gleason, Nancy Kulp, Robert Urich, or Casper Van Dien instead?
ReplyDeleteI'm A+, too!
ReplyDeleteI'm A+ too, and glad I'm not the only one who gloats that "A+ is in my blood!" :)
