Aesthetics MPI104



Aesthetics is basically how beautiful and pleasing to the eye something is in a wed sence this means pretty much how good a webpage looks and why - some attributes to Aesthetics are colour, light, textures, the flow of objects around the page - easy for the eye to follow, and many more.Aesthetics are very improtant when it comes to web design as you cannot lure your customers in with any of the other 5 sences so (well you can use sound but only if its effective) so Aesthetics to the eye are extreemly improtant.

an example of a wed design gone bad would be Brown University the colours are atrotious and clash horribly, they have the most unattractive picture of a person they could find as the header - the pages dosent flow in any way and is just boaring - deffinatly NOT a good web page -

an example of a good web design would be The Walt Disney site this site is very Aestheticly pleasing its colours blend together beautifully all objects are well placed and shapes flow nicley allowing the yee to follow the flow of the page wel it is easy to use nd look at overall a very good web page.

TVP assesment 1

hay - well this week i was ccu which is kinda good coz i was feeling quite ill - i thought it was going to be really scary but it was actually ok and not as bad as it looked although it takes alot of concentration and a cool head.i thought we worked really well as a group and our director pushed us in ways we havent been pushed before so that was really good i think everyone got alot out of it. we did have a few flaws like sound needed to be a bit faster and some minor stuff ups with cards etc.. but all in all it was pretty good. so yay 1 down 3 to go n ill see you all next week. check out how a CCU works

rss and xml

rss according towikidpedia is "RSS is a family of web feed formats used to publish frequently updated digital content, such as blogs, news feeds or podcasts.
Users of RSS content use software programs called "feed readers" or "feed aggregators". The user subscribes to a feed by entering a link of the feed into the reader program. The reader can then check the user's subscribed feeds to see if any of those feeds have new content since the last time it was checked, and, if so, retrieve that content and present it to the user.
The initials "RSS" are variously used to refer to the following standards:
Really Simple Syndication (RSS 2.0)
Rich Site Summary (RSS 0.91, RSS 1.0)
RDF Site Summary (RSS 0.9 and 1.0)
RSS formats are specified in XML (a generic specification for data formats). RSS delivers its information as an XML file called an "RSS feed," "webfeed," "RSS stream," or "RSS channel".
XML according to wikidpedia is "he Extensible Markup Language (XML) is a general-purpose markup language.[1] Its primary purpose is to facilitate the sharing of data across different information systems, particularly via the Internet.[2]
It is a simplified subset of the Standard Generalized Markup Language (SGML), and is designed to be relatively human-legible. By adding semantic constraints, application languages can be implemented in XML. These include XHTML,[3] RSS, MathML, GraphML, Scalable Vector Graphics, MusicXML, and thousands of others. Moreover, XML is sometimes used as the specification language for such application languages.
XML is recommended by the World Wide Web Consortium. It is a fee-free open standard. The W3C recommendation specifies both the lexical grammar, and the requirements for parsing."

I chose to do a google reader account because according to joe its better so i did. it also seems the best coz i use google like everyday - it is how i find out whats happening in the big wide world.
