I guess having spent last week working on a very vocational project, I’ve been reassessing the direction my work is going in and questioning what I will take away form this MA. I think it’s time I learnt how to build websites and started adding to my skill set.

I’ve downloaded the 30day trial of Adobe Go Live. I figured I would be more inspired to start by learning software that was design based before I attempt to learn a scripting language – which seems very daunting at the moment.

I’ve proudly worked my way through the tutorials and have covered – Objects-Creating Pages- Text -Background -Frames -Scrolls -Tables -CSS -Templates -Stationary Patterns and links.

My pages even look like a website. This may not seem much anyone who may read this who can build websites already, but it’s a big leap for me. I’m already considering ways to incorporate this into my project. Hopefully we’ll have a working web page by next year!

SECOND LIFE

In the chat this week we discsssed the second life conference in June. After a bit of technical stress I finally got it up and running and have a nice new Second Life name. However I still need to master moving her about.
