Web Coding or WYSIWYG Web Design Package
Is it classed as cheating if you were to use a WYSIWYG Web Editor over learning to web code from scratch?
The reason I ask this is that when you see a vacancy for a web designer, they say you must have experience of 9 web programming languages and use of graphics software such as adobe.
So why not just use a package to do the web side and another to do the graphic side?
Your thoughts please?
Thanks
Great article ! if you want to go further suggest a book called ‘Slowing Down to the Speed of Life’ by Richard Carlson & Joseph Bailey
I hate waiting. Most people I know hate waiting. Life is full of waiting: we wait for loved ones to come home, we wait for movies to start, we wait in lines at groceries, banks, or the DMV. We wait to hear the results of tests at school, and the results of tests about our health. Right now my love is waiting to find out if a new job will come through, unable to make commitments until he does. As writers, we wait for the muse to strike, we wait to hear back about a submission, we wait to see if anyone will discover our work, and we wait to learn if they love it as we do. All this waiting creates an often excruciating sense of anticipation, anxiety, or dread. It puts us in a state of suspended animation, of limbo: we understand, while in this limbo, why Dante…

Smartphones are the hackers next target
Does reading articles like this make you think about your own information?
There are hackers, advertisers and now allegedly governments who are after your information. I wonder what is the answer to it all. You can already go to sites such as portable apps.com and download firefox or google to run from your USB memory stick. You can get portable versions of password managers too; where you can copy and paste your user names and passwords into your browser of choice. But you will need to check which browsers will fully work with them.
Google have admitted also, that they do not care about your privacy; do they really want your details so they can just sell them on: I think on the wake of the PRISM revelations, this will backfire on Google.
Perhaps you can use the alias feature of your email to create other email addresses which you give out, and only letting close contacts to have your main email address.
How do you decide what information, if any, to give out to the internet?
I think it is good that articles are starting to come out like this: reading under the line to what is actually happening behind events in the news. I applaud them.
The company only announces new things which will make them money. Another example is my local telephone company: KC Kingston Communications; They recently announced in the local rag that they were going to let unemployed people without internet access, to be able to buy reconditioned laptops and desktop PCs. In fact you might get it reduced in price, but you have to go through KC to get ISP because they are the only company in the city who offers this service. Yes, OFCOM said that KC had to let other companies into the city, but the other companies say that KC charge them too much to access their networks, then KC say that no other companies want to come into the city.
I think there is a lot of truth, in recent films such as ‘The Hunger Games’ and ‘Elysium’ Both talk about the rich living in one atmosphere and the rest of the world living in poverty.
Unless those who are rich learn from people like Bill Gates and his wife and actually do something to help others, what future is there for the rest of us.
What do you think?
Until there is a serious accountability to all issues again, this will just carry on and on.
I am getting so frustrated with employers these days. You cannot hardly have a week go by when some news website is telling us that employers are complaining about the skills of those who apply for jobs with them.
I, like a lot of people, am looking for a job. One of the Websites I am on this morning, had what I thought was an error on their site. So I sent them feedback to say that in their search field they had options to select for part time jobs, but not full time. They replied back, “then don’t apply for those”
I wonder why you have to pay for a coffee from Starbucks before you get your latte, but you have to pay for it after you drank it from a cafe in Italy, at £85
I don’t know if you remember, but I remember a programme called Tomorrows’ World here in the UK. It said there would be flying cars (like in Back to the Future, Fifth Element) by the year 2010. I was looking forward to it actually. They also mentioned other things like the paperless office and the paperless office. When I heard about robots replacing ALL humans jobs; I got concerned. I wondered even then at 13 or 14 I think I was, if robots replaced our jobs, what would be left for us Humans to do. Then when I was a bit older, the excellent entertainment ‘Terminator’ films came out: this was possibly another way that things could go with technology we have produced. Now in London, UK, a council has £12,000 installing a virtual hologram receptionist at one of its’ offices. The reason they gave, is because it was cheaper then employing a human.
I am all for using technology to assist with our daily lives. It is when it impacts on us humans that I get concerned: what becomes of us humans?
