In this blog I will post my thoughts and ideas for the website I'm going to create for my INFO 652 course. In following posts I will outline my ideas for this website and the content and functions I intend to implement over the next weeks.
Since I already have some experience in website design, I will try to improve the basic HTML website with some advanced technologies, such as JavaScript. If our web server supports PHP and MySQL I might also extend the website using these technologies. I will have to figure that out and to make sure that it meets the course's requirements.
I haven't come up with my final decision about the website's topic yet, but hope to do so within the next days. Based on the chosen topic I will then outline a possible structure and site-map for the website.
In order to make this blog a little bit more personal I added links to two other websites of mine to the navigation on the right hand side. One of the links brings you to my USA blog, which I started upon my arrival in the USA in 2006. The other link brings you to a small page about my trip to Australia in 2005. The language on both sites is German, but there are also many pictures that speak for themselves. Therefore, feel free to practice your German (if you ever learned it), or just have fun with the pictures, or use one of the many website translation tools if you are interested in the content :)
