Survived (and kicked ass!) last semester, had a great month break where I rediscovered my talent for vegetating in front of the TV and drinking. Now onto the next semester.
I'm not actually doing any coding subjects this term - lots of flash and a bit of techno-philospophy, but I am going to finish off and launch the Personal Trainer website. Plus I'd like to build my nephew a website so he can stay in touch with the family in Sydney.
I enjoyed logging my coding thoughts in this blog so much during DMT, I've decided to keep going with it. Plus its a handy receptacle of all of the info I find I need along the way - I find my own information receptacle (my brain) is less reliable these days. I'm blaming my conflicting talent for drinking for that one...
So...a couple of quick notes, then I'll leave production until Sunday (for old times sake...)
In the last month:
- the free web hosts have been great. I'm really happy with the service and have had no troubles once i got it up and running. I would go with them again, for sure...
- I received actual content from the client. I freaked out because it looked like she wanted to turn my lovely site into a shouty ad. Had to remind her of her target market. Have agreed on a compromise. Will spend approx 10 hours uploading content, tweaking the pages and creating a new testimonial page (this is all gratis, so I had to actually draw up a scope!) Plan to do that before the end of August as after that, with uni demands, my time will be at a premium
- The client has registered the domain name www.launchintofitness.com. Through an american site. Not sure why. Local help desk support may be useful one day...oh well, lets deal with that if/when we need to...
That's enough for now - have to start thinking about animation ideas for class tonight. Oh the pressure of choosing your own term project! Sometimes I get bogged down by too may options...
