HTML = GAHH!!
I'm becoming increasingly frustrated with writing HTML and CSS, especially after today's class. I get so upset with myself when I go in to change the text to say "Kelly Holliday" or switch around some pictures, and it doesn't show up on when I load the webpage!! Needless to say that I am happy we are moving on from writing HTML and transitioning to writing for the Web and blogging basics. I'm definitely more interested in writing for the Internet than writing codes for the Internet.

Aw Kelly, don't get frustrated! Honestly, I'm sure this stuff just takes practice like anything else. Try writing a couple blog posts switching back and forth between the HTML view and the code view. Generally blogger will fix some tags for you, so you can see what changed and know how to do things differently in the future. That is, if you're ever planning on using this stuff...
ReplyDeleteI agree with Sarah, its all about practice and how much expirience you get to have with it. Im sure by the end of the class we will have most of it down. And yes, I am more interested to write for the internet, rather than writing codes for it. As journalism majors we need to adapt to web writing because ultimately, its what we are probably going to end up doing.
ReplyDeleteYour frustration is due to my errors, not your lack of understanding. If you want to find some time to go through it again outside of class, let me know.
ReplyDeleteSarah and Ada are correct, too, that the goal isn't becoming expert in it, merely in it not being foreign.
