Week One

This week I decided to develop my web page on my personal site off campus so I don't have to worry about copying it before my account is terminated when I graduate. I also decided to code it all "by hand" so that I can keep my HTML and CSS skills up to date. I began to think about navigation ideas. I don't think that the 'fish eye' concept will be workable for me - too much programming and not enough time. Also, I started my resume. I don't think I will have an online resume that is a clone of my regular one. Instead, I will try to make my web version more about my experience as opposed to the straight out facts. This way employers can get a story behind my experiences. I began planning and writing the CSS too.

Week Two

Spent a good portion of this week trying to write a novel navigation system up, but when I asked people if they liked it, I got mostly negative reports, so I decided to scrap it and just go for a more traditional system instead. I placed the nav bar at the top and made it very simple to use. Got a lot better feedback out of this one. I also wrote up the projects page and made a template for all of my future pages.

Week Three

Did a lot of content development this week. Wrote out my online resume as well as the home page. Also decided to write a bio page to allow someone to get to know me better as a person. Decided to develop the travel section at a later time. Schedule is a little tight, but I am pleased with how things stand right now.

To Do List for Next Version

  • Fill in travel section
  • Refine and update resume with most current experiences
  • Work on CSS a little bit to refine the look a little bit
  • Add more projects and perhaps source code to the projects page
