Thanks Everyone! I have gotten some pretty cool toys. My wife and I are gaming on the couch right now after a long weekend. These are our new keyboards: Microsoft Arc

They fit well on the laptop boards: Lapdesk - Laptop Lap Desk - Black - 45492

She also needed a new power adapter for her mac and a mouse so we are both rocking new equipment...

This is one of the cutest emails I have received in a while!


An older, tired-looking dog wandered into my yard.
I could tell from his collar and well-fed belly that he had




a home and was well taken care of.

He calmly came over to me, I gave him a few pats on his head;
he then followed me into my house, slowly walked down the
hall, curled up in the corner and fell asleep.








An hour later, he went to the door, and I let him out..



The next day he was back, greeted me in my yard,



walked inside and resumed his spot in the hall



and again slept for about an hour.



This continued off and on for several weeks.



Curious I pinned a note to his collar:



'I would like to find out who the owner of this wonderful sweet dog is



and ask if you are aware that almost every afternoon



your dog comes to my house for a nap.'



The next day he arrived for his nap, with a different note pinned to his collar:



'He lives in a home with 6 children, 2 under the age of 3 -

he's trying to catch up on his sleep.

Can I come with him tomorrow?'

Thank you :)
I know :shock: the belt buckle I actually got for my pastor and friend, Casey. He loves belt buckles, and I know he'll enjoy it. The rest are for myself. I'm getting a Q-cube for my friend Josh, probably... Actually I missed a bit of the shipping costs, so it's closer to 275... oO

On a plus note, it's really cool when you buy something here, buy something there.. because you never know when they're gonna arrive, and when they do, they arrive at random and it's like Christmas for yourself :D
It's almost like a game, you buy a bunch of things on random days, and try to guess when they're going to arrive :p

I NEED HELP!!!! :(

So, for my Web1 class, we're doing some very basic stuff...

but this one thing is kicking my butt...


View the code below


Code:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

<title>Designing Effective Web Sites by Benjamin Hall</title>
</head>

<body>

<h1 align="center"><img src="target1.jpg" alt="Target" />Designing Effective Web Sites</h1><br>

<p>When working on design of a web site, consider the following questions...</p>

<ol>
<li>What are the <strong>objectives</strong> of the web site?</li>
<li><strong>Who</strong> are the visitors you wish to attract?</li>
<li>How will visitors <strong>find and enter</strong> your web site?</li>
<li>What will cause visitors to <strong>stay and navigate</strong>?</li>
<li>How do you get them to <strong>revisit</strong>?</li>
</ol>

<p><img src="key3.jpg" alt="Key" /> It's relatively easy to <strong><em>architect</em></strong> web sites, but it's difficult to do it well!</p>
<hr size=3 align="center" />

<h3>What is Web Site Architecture?</h3>

<ul>
<li>"The application of <strong>organization, navigation,
labeling,</strong> and <strong>indexing</strong> systems to support both browsing and
searching for large, complex Web sites and intranets."</li>
<li>About web <strong>sites</strong>, not web pages</li>
<li>Information architecture with many different perspectives 
<em>(graphic design, usability engineering, technical design, etc...)</em></li>
</ul>

<h3>Why is it valuable?</h3>

<ul>
<li>Quickly gives visitor an idea of what the site is about</li>

This is one of the cutest emails I have received in a while!


An older, tired-looking dog wandered into my yard.
I could tell from his collar and well-fed belly that he had




a home and was well taken care of.

He calmly came over to me, I gave him a few pats on his head;
he then followed me into my house, slowly walked down the
hall, curled up in the corner and fell asleep.








An hour later, he went to the door, and I let him out..



The next day he was back, greeted me in my yard,



walked inside and resumed his spot in the hall



and again slept for about an hour.



This continued off and on for several weeks.



Curious I pinned a note to his collar:



'I would like to find out who the owner of this wonderful sweet dog is



and ask if you are aware that almost every afternoon



your dog comes to my house for a nap.'



The next day he arrived for his nap, with a different note pinned to his collar:



'He lives in a home with 6 children, 2 under the age of 3 -

he's trying to catch up on his sleep.

Can I come with him tomorrow?'

:D :D I love it!!
