What have you learned about making a website so far? What has been easy about it and what has been frustrating? Explain.

What i have learned about making a website is that you need to do all of this hyper linking and getting photos from the internet and citing it. The easy part of making a website for first timers is all of they hyper linking it may seem like that is really making people mad of repeating it over like thousand times. The most frustrating part of this maybe is actually building the whole thing because something may not work right or you messed up on  something and you don't know how to undo it. Building websites are really hard and takes hard work but you can make one.

 Tell me if you agree with this statement and then explain why or why not. "Images on the internet are 'free game' - if someone posted I should be able to use it."

I don't agree with that because some people don't even know if their picture is up there and people use it without giving the correct citing for it. Images are on the internet because people may need to see an example, but most images are for examples and not for taking. Images that are posted on the internet should be copyright so people cant take it without citing it first. Plagiarism for a school project with images could get you into alot of trouble if you don't cite it so in my opinion images are not free they have to be cited before because can take them.

What do you know about plagiarism? What do you know about plagiarism on the internet? How do web design, the internet and plagiarism all effect each other? Explain.


Plagiarism is cheating or copying without give credit to the owner of the paper or work. Punishments for Plagiarism can result in redoing the whole work or getting expelled from school. Plagiarism on the internet is when someone posts something intended to help someone and not be stolen off the internet to be used for their own work without citing it and giving credit for it. 

Plagiarism can affect web design and  the internet in different ways. Saying if you have homework to do and its building a website you can use many different ways. Also you can always just steal a website and call it your own without doing any of the work. It all ties in because the internet helped you reach the website and web design is making websites and you just stole one right off the internet. They all affect each other because it all ties in and stealing a website could make it easy to steal it but chances are you will get caught doing it somehow.

Journal - After watching the short clip of Ashton Kutcher's acceptance speech what did you take away from his advice? What does this quote mean to you -"Everything around you that you call life was made up by people that were no smarter than you, and you can change it, you can influence it, you can build your own things that other people can use."

          What Ashton Kutchers speech was a influenced  many people in the crowd. What he means by his quote is that people before you messed up this world in one way or another, but you can change it by making a mark in this world. None of those people are smarter than you because they messed up this world by doing crimes and all of that dumb stuff. If you are willing to make an impact then go ahead and do it change the world and help future generations have a safe world. Be thoughtful is another word that Ashton used in his speech if you just be thoughtful to other people around you, you could make a big impact on those around you. Build your own things so that other people can use is like saying that people will get into trouble because they are bored. Well then build a community center so that other people can use it for fun and other stuff.
