I agree with this video in some ways but I also disagree in some ways. I agree because there are so many people that have smart phones and they become so distracted by them that they are missing out on what is really going on in the real world. Like in the video, the guy was looking down on his cell phone when the woman who could have been his wife passed by whereas if he was looking up he would have seen her and said something to her, starting his life with her. I disagree, however, because smart phones help us in many ways. We can email, text, and call our friends and family for important things. The video is saying to shut the phones off and not use them, and I think we just need to cut down on the time we are using them.

What is a 'splash page'? Look it up.Explain how they are used. Find an example of a splash page in Google Images. Save the image to you computer and then upload it to your blog post. Hint - see below.
A splash page is the first page someone sees on a website before giving the option to continue to the rest of the site. It is used to grab the user's attention so they will want to go through the whole website. They will often have animated graphics and sounds that will be used to get the reader to explore the rest of the site.

Status update! Tell me where you are at on your product website? Can you be finished by tomorrow at the end of the hour? Do you need more time? How much more time? Be honest and explain yourself.
I only have about two pages finished. I will definitely not be able to get the whole website done by tomorrow. I probably need until Friday at least, and if not next week because I did not really know how to link up pages when you were gone. I feel like I kind of figured it out but there are still some things I need to know.

Welcome back! How was your Spring Break? Tell me all about it. You've been out of school for 10 days so I know you will have plenty to share. Make it good!
My Spring Break was pretty fun. It mainly consisted of hanging out with friends and going to swim practice. This last weekend I went to my house at the Lake of the Ozarks with my cousins and grandpa. The best part was that my brothers and cousin and I were trail riding on our four wheelers and we ended up at the end of where the lake usually is. The lake was lowered so we could ride our four wheelers on it, but the bad part was that it was really muddy, so we rode through it and we got our four wheelers stuck in about a foot of mud. We had to walk about two miles to the nearest gas station so we could call our uncle to come pick us up. We left the four wheelers there and the next morning we got up early so we could get them out. The smaller four wheeler was easy to get out and we just pushed it out. We had to dig out the bigger one and tie a rope to the small one connecting the two and pull it out. It was an overall fun Spring Break.

Do you like the layout of this project? Have you benefited from your brainstorming sheet? Was it more helpful or annoying when starting to map out your website? Explain why.
Yes, I like the layout of this project because it is easy to work with. I have benefited from my brainstorming sheet. It was helpful because I basically had everything already mapped out on the sheet.

After reading below to see where you should be on your product website - are you caught up? What helps you stay caught up in class? Do you like having small checkpoints? Are you behind? If so, what are you going to do to get caught up?
No, I am not completely caught up. Staying focused helps with staying caught up. Yes, I like checkpoints because it helps you get things done in an organized way. I am behind. I am going to stay focused this week.

What idea do you have that is going to make you product website different, unique or unlike anyone else? If you're answer is you don't know - it's time to start THINKING. Explain your idea.
I am selling swimwear on my website. It is going to be a website made for swimmers so they can have everything they need when they are practicing or racing. I am selling equipment like kick boards and fins, and apparel like suits and goggles. It is going to be different from anyone else because not very many people are swimmers and I do not think they would want to sell swimwear.
