My HTML Experience...

This was my first time making a HTML pare, I do not consider myself good with computers, so this was a good experience. It was confusing to begin with, but then once I realized what I was doing it became easier. I followed the directions carefully and I think i made it harder than it really is. I have a tendency to do that sometimes. I feel a little more computer savvy now that I made this page, because it was never something I thought about doing. I worked on this with a friend, and we helped each other out. I had a little bit of problems in the end, so I still don't know if I did every thing completely right. I was cool in the end, to have actually made my own html page. I have already learned a lot in this class, and this html page was just another thing I now know how to do! I am now looking forward to what I will learn next in this class. When I first heard that we had to make our own html page, i did think that it was going to be complicated, because I have never done it; but it was not bad. Overall I would say it was a good experience!

Email vs. Postal service

 E-mails and the postal service are similar in many ways, but they are also different in some ways. One way that they are the same is that they both send information from one place to a final destination, they also both follow specific routes, determining on the traffic at the time. With that last one, the postal service usually has the same rout that it takes each day, but the e-mail does it in a different way. E-mail rips the message into a bunch of different pieces, and sends them in different ways, meeting up at the end. They also both have established protocols to follow, and they both can also have junk mail. Another major difference between the two is speed. E-mail is extremely fast, when it comes to speed, much faster than the postal service. There are also many stops along the way to the final destination, for both. But thet also results to speed, because email does this extremely quick. With both email and the postal service, they can both "bounce" mail back to the sender. When it comes to email, you do not need a stamp, but you do need a stamp with the postal service. The stamps pay for the service to the postal service. With email you don't pay direct, like with stamps, but you do pay in other ways.

What I hope to learn.

I this class I hope to learn a lot of the basics when it comes to computers in general. I do not know much about the virtual world, but there are times when I really wished that I did know more. When it comes to computers, I  feel like I only know what I use, and what I need to know. I defiantly know that common basic knowledge in computers is always good to have, no matter what you decide to do with your life. I also work at Target, and a lot of the times they have me cover our electronics department for lunches or brakes, and even though it's a short time, I still get guests and questions that I do not always know. I would like to feel more comfortable with electronics in general, so I am looking forward to this class showing me what I will need to know!
