Tangling With the Web:

A Page Likely to be Full of Bugs

by Pamela Steinman

Web Publishing I:Fall, 2011

In May of 2003 big white boxes of PC arrived at my doorstep. I felt like a kid and a parent at Christmas. It was love at first byte. I didn't know what to plug in first, or for that matter, where to plug it, but I knew it would be an adventure finding out. Later that year I became intrigued by a book I found which was an html guide for kids and decided that I was born at least 30 years too early. Today, in this class, the adventure continues.

“My Goals”

1. To learn html and css well enough to create a functional, good-looking website
2. To learn enough about web design in a year's time to be employable and one day become an employer in this or a related field
3. To write a book or produce some significant article or body of writing before I die
