Web Pages and Such...

My favorite stumpers were without a doubt Belen's, Mary's, and Austin's. I liked Belen's because it was a secluded spot that (at least I think) few people see. Mary's was good mainly because I see that spot everyday and I think that a lot of people do too. I liked Austin's because it's not a view that many people see.

The web pages that I thought stood out were Mary's, Crispin's, and Kate's. Mary's was good due to the colors and just the amount of information that was present. Crispin's stood out because it was simple and to-the-point. I liked Kate's because the layout seemed pretty open and clutter -free.

Oh, here are the comments by the way:

Bad Powerpoints

http://www.cs.trinity.edu/~csmith10/bad/Bad%20PowerPoint%20Presentations_files/frame.htm

This is the link to my "bad" powerpoint presentation. I liked Danielle's because she not only showed what not to do, but also contrasted it with what to do. I also liked Kate's. It evolved onto more of a "what not to do" presentation and was full of good information. Austin's was good too. He kept the ideas of what no to do short and to the point.

Web picture Copyrights and such

Using an image that you find on the internet can be risky in most cases because you know that it is copyrighted bu you're not entirely sure whether the rights holder would become angry and possibly pursue court action. But chances are, if you aren't using the picture for profit, there won't be the possibility of a suit. An easy way around this problem is this: use pictures from the site Stock Exchange. This site contains thousands and thousands of free pictures that are up for use. If you don't use Stock Exchange, you should probably cite the site or source where you got the picture from.

Web 2.0 Comments and Thoughts

Basically, the article said that in 2006, the biggest contribution to social computing and the like was made not by Microsoft or any other software or hardware company, but by the people who actually use the computers socially. People would spend countless hours creating videos by mixing and mashing bits and pieces from various sources. Basically, you and I are the ones who most impacted and changed the computing world. I think that in the coming years, it's only going to get more and more connected and diversified in terms of content and whatnot. It will certainly be interesting to see where things go from here, especially with so many people joining websites like YouTube and MySpace.
