 I am not sure about the interface of the cell and I am still think about that one.

Reading Response, Chapter 10 & 11 - FINALLY

Ok I am going to start with Chapter 11 about Cascading Style Sheets, aka CSS Style. Which I loved learning to use CSS styles alot more then I liked learning about TABLES, Javascript and PHP. I believe CSS is much easier to use and to understand too. I like the fact out I am able to move things around and tight it can be without the using tables. Tables always leaved things broken or... what is the word I am looking for... Not sure, but I didn't like how it looks on the net. CSS is much more cleaner and smooth to look at it.

I got to re-read chapter 10, I forgot what that one is about.

OH YEAH! FAQs on a site! When you go into a site you want to go hunt for something your searching for right away. If you get lost on the first page and not sure what to do or where to go, no one is going stay along and end up going else where.

If I wasn't friends with these ladies; I would keep visiting there site. I even asked to redo it too, but they are not allow to let anyone touch it. Sad too; but when I first visit there site, I had a hard time searching when the classes started and the locations. I finally had to email them to get the info: http://www.jeweledscarab.com/aboutus.html. I have always found http://www.target.com/ sort of confusing to look at, I always go straight to the search option. I don't want to waste my time searching throughout the site when I just want to check something out. Metro is a site I get lost in ALL THE TIME!! http://www.kingcounty.gov/ trying to see what bus is going where and what time, I normal give up lookm then call them for help or end up driving or getting a ride in where I got to go. Although Metro is very well inform when snow hits Seattle, it is all over the site where to go and what routes are not going.

App Ideas - research Ideas

1. idea - One of my ideas is to a hiking app. Looks like there is already one out there and it looks really cook!!

  1. http://theappwhisperer.com/2011/05/06/top-10-iphone-hiking-apps/
  2. http://appadvice.com/appguides/show/hiking-apps//
  3. http://www.trailstv.com/top-10-hiking-apps/



My other Idea is to find an app that allow the touch phones to last alot longer then 38 hours. I am a hiker and if I am in the woods, I need call for help my cell deads. Then again, there is no signal in the woods either... there could be an app for that too. So far I haven't seen nothing like that one then net.

All the have is info how to make it battery last:

But is just "HOW TO" make it last. Trust me it helps, but not really.

Signal?

We kind buy stuff for it, but no app. :( Sooo yeah! NOW to draw this out.

I thought about Hunting for ghost towns has an app too, but turning my research I figure it was stupid and didn't keep on it. So I like the hiking, the more battery life and the signal boost app Idea.
