Research for Protopage

flakes have to be columns but when you're using protopage you can change the settings so you can put the widget anywhere you want.

a widget is an application that you put on your page to make it personalised. the purpose of the tabs is to separate the different bits of information and widgets from each other. to create and edit new tabs is really easy, even i can do it without asking anyone how to do it.
Protopage could be used to help with our project because we could create a new tab for each topic and write the information in sticky notes. we are able to add photos but i haven't figured out how to add video or audio yet.

here is a screen shot:



Some positives are that it's free, there are tabs that allow us to organise the information in a menu type thing, there are different ways to type up the information, it's personalised easily, we can change the title of the tabs and sticky notes and you can add text underneath pictures to explain what it is. some negatives are that i can't figure out how to add video and when Laura and i tried to see if we can both log in at the same time Laura couldn't get on and when i tried at home i also couldn't get on so i think we have to be logged onto the computer at school using my username and password to work on the page (although I'm not positive).

The World Of Multimedia

Some examples where i use multimedia in my life are my ipod, texting, you tube, TV, mobile phone and the computer.

My ipod/itunes would be the hardest to give up because i love my music and i'm always listening to it. My life would be so boring without it.

I think the technology in the video might eventually come true but not exactly like the video. the technology in the video makes it easier to share information and to socialise however i think that it might make us dependent on it so if didn't have the technology we wouldn't be able to socialise at all.

i didn't know how to get my slide show onto the slide show website so Laura basically did it for me. she's a genius!

story board

i got the story board off michaela and laura and michaela got the synopsis off me, so it's a win win situation. sir had today and yesterday off so we had an extension on the assignment *phew*. anyways here the story board:

RSS...

A RSS stands for a Really Simple Syndication and it's a format for spreading news and other web stuff. When you put whatever you want to send into a RSS and send it to someone else or their website, it's called a feed.
You can add a whole heap of stuff to a feed and each feed contains a list of items (an index) and each one is identified by a link to the content of your website. Most RSS feeds include a title for the link and a description of the content.
RSS feeds keep your audience totally updated without having to actually go to your site, for example, in a software company's website people can miss out on important tech articles or updates if they forget to check it but by feeding it to them they won't miss out.
Feeds are different from email because it's more like a link to your website but it also has a description to get people to want to read it.
Reading feeds is similar to using a radio, the station sends out programmes and you use the radio to pick it up at home. With RSS you send out your content in a RSS feed and subscribers use a newsreader to read it.
You can find the feeds you want to subscribe to by setting you reader with your preferences and it will collect the feeds you're interested in every time there is an update.

synopsis

it's going to be really funny news segments including the weather, sports and recent events. this video is aimed at people our age (14-15 years old) and was created to entertain and make people laugh.
there will be opening credits with photos of Laura and Michaela with their names on the screen. there might be some music to go in the background. there will also be a reenactment of the cadbury eyebrow ad.
