Is a website a positive or negative thing?

A website can differ, it can be possitve but at the same time it can be negative. There are many useful websites were you can learn a lot, or find the answer of what you are looking for. There are many cool websites that are for your social life, and there are some for your education life. Websites are positive in many ways because we can have fun in many if them, we can learn, we can chat with our friends, and many websites make our lives much easier and we can find information much faster. At the same time there are many websites that say fake information, some that can bring viruses tu your computer, some that may corrupt your minds, etc. There are some social network websites that can completly ruin your life, some put way to much information and get kidnapped, some get hacked and cruel games get played on them so they commit suicide. There are some many cases of suicides, adultery, depression caused by what they see, crimes, etc. A website can influence your life, it can make you spend so many our of your life there that you start socializing just virtually and you don't really make friends. So there are so many useful websites that can help us and at the same time some that can destroy our lives, we have to know how to use it so we can have a safe time in internet, we have to know how much time to spend there, and what information is appropriate to put on websites.

How can we use websites in our daily lives?

Websites may be very helpful in our lives, it can help us in school, in our jobs, in our social life, in our free time, etc. Websites may be very useful for ourselves, but at the same time for anyone in the world because they are exposed for any person. We can use websites to advertise things, to show the world what you are doing, to share with everyone information, to make a website on a specific topic, to help people as a soruce of information for research, to make a bio of yourself, to make a website with your friends, etc. For example the website I did is to help girls that don't know what to wear at that time, dont know how to combine, have an idea od things they can use, etc. This is a source to help others and it is really cool for me. If you go on a trip with your friends and you have cool pictures and cool information you want to share then do a website to promote the place. This is a great source to promote and make advertisment, because this is also part of mass communication. Websites can be part of what you like to do in you spare time, it can be a hobbie, this teahces you a lot, and you have to research so you will gain knowledge and you will provide information for others to also gain knowledge. There are various ways on how we can use websites in our daily lives, I can spend the whole night giving you ideas on how to use the, Try to make one, it is really cool and it is a way to have a conection with the world, maybe you will create a new website that everyone will want to use just like Facebook and Twitter!

How has webpage designing evolved over time?

As time goes on things evolve and become more advanced. Medicine and technology are constantly changing and developing into things we never thought they could exist. In our technology class we learned how to create a website in the old-fashion way, so we used the note pad and HTML format to create ours, of course now we have more advanced and easier ways to create a website. What humans want to do is to develop technology every day, and the whole point on developing it is to make our lives easier.Technology is not only computers and electronics, we can see a chair as an advancement of technology, there are really cool chair right now that are for multiple functions. We can see that a website designing when it first started was quite complicated and I experienced the frustration sometimes when things didn't go well, there are many codes so its kind of confusing. But if you know how to use HTML then you can easily do a website with an advanced technology.

A world without internet

In the generation we are living right now, our world wouldn't function well without internet access. Internet access is a mayor influence in our daily lives. We have found friends from our preschool, 1/6 marriages have met online, people can gain knowledge every second just for looking information up in Google, your send an email and in one second it arrives so if you have an emergency you can send by email it will arrive in the same instant, some jobs function throughout internet access for example my uncle lives here and works in Miami throughout Skype. Internet is something we relay on so a lot of works, businesses, and families wouldn't work without it. Internet has so much information, everyone in the world can access is it, a lot of the information is bad and can corrupt many brains because there is a lot of pornography, fake information, fake pictures, etc. but at the same time there is a lot of valid and useful information. In my opinion internet is something we need and use a lot, is for us to have contact with people around the world, celebrities, authors, friends, family, etc. Internet facilitates our lives, now we can pay for things via internet, we can buy things in any part of the world using internet, we can help organization, we can donate, we can do all of this things in our beds very comfortable. We can also reduce drastically the amount of paper we use because now we can do things in word documents, Google docs, blogs, etc. New papers, magazines, etc. are now available in internet because we want to be a green world reducing the amount of paper we waste every day.

The Power and Influence of Mass Communication

cMass communication is a very powerful and influential tool, in this case we are using a website. Websites are powerful tools because everyone can see them and learn from them. When you post something on a website you are communicating it to the world, so you have to be careful with what you put, it may influence people in positive ways or negative ways. Mass communication is used to advertise things or to inform things to people, and people like wearing things that other people wear, listening to the same music, having the same things, etc. So when a new movie comes out or new clothes per season, or a new iPAD and you see that everyone wants it you will also want it, that is why mass communication is so powerful and influential. In my case, the website I am doing is for the girls that don't know what to wear in some situations so this website is going to influence them because they may like the ideas I will give so they are going to wear it and if they like it they are going to tell their friends about it and so on. Mass communication is very powerful because now everyone uses computers and social networking so information flies faster than what we think, so that is why we have to be very careful with the things we say or we post because they may be very influential.
