html Training Video

I recently watched a video on Youtube called Basic HTML Tutorial, and it taught the extremely bare basics of making a webpage. It told readers how to make a webpage; you would use the 'notepad' feature of your computer, type the open and close html commands, type your message in between, save the file as .html, access the webpage, and use the the bold command. It did not include anything else, and was extremely shallow, but it was a good and not-confusing way for beginners to start using html.

Laura's Website

I went to a website, where a young girl named Laura tells readers about a good deed she did every day of december untill Christmas. Laura and her mom give examples of good deeds Laura did in their website, and encourages readers and their kids to also do good deeds and make a difference in the world. For example: on December 13th 2007, Laura cleaned her fishbowl and talked about how much she loves her cat and fish. On December 12th 2007, Laura voluntered to put lables on 500 letters for a Tourette’s syndrome fundraiser, and she talked about a friend who has Tourette's. I think this website is a good encouragement for children to do good deeds for the world. For example, one good deed I could do in the next two weeks would be to collect money to donate to the Salvation Army...one man on the news donated $3,000!!!
