Dreamweaver

Today I learned an itty-bitty bit about how to make a webpage using Adobe Dreamweaver (I have a handout entitled "How to weave the website of your dreams," but only because the Inscape advisor has a sense of humor). I learned the basics of inserting text, and I know how to fiddle my way through modifying tags for text, background, and other simple stuff like that. The biggest stumbling block I've found is that I don't speak abbreviation. I know how to fiddle with tags, provided I know what the darn tag is. When there are fifteen three-letter-or-less abbreviations starting with A, that isn't a good sign for the uninitiated.

But I'm sure I'll get better. Even if I'm not on the web staff this semester, next semester is completely web, so I'll have to learn fast.

I always thought i'd go into programming when I grew up, but I'm not as good at it as I always thought I would be. I'm better at like web design. I think. Computers get frustrating though, I think i might go into Mcdonalds.

Collin, I'll definitely take you up on your offer with the tags if I end up in the web design group. I'm hoping for print, but you never know.
