I must say that I’m quite anxious for this personal Hypertext assignment and am quite certain that if I put time and effort into this project, it may re-spark my interest for web-development and website design. In the links provided to our class in regards to web development and fresh ideas for design, I found the two educational websites to be a lack of help as the site layouts weren’t engaging and laid out for help the best they could be. However, the pages from sixrevision.com were extremely useful and contained design aspects and websites that are extraordinary examples of successful design and integration of their product. Another site that I frequent has a sole purpose of celebrating good design, TheDieline.com, and maybe it will be of help to myself and other students in this Personal Hypertext assignment.
