And so it ends...
I’ve been watching The Price is Right ever since I was a kid. It’s the longest running game show in television history. I always knew that if I could make it into the studio audience, I would “Come on Down.” My friends thought I was nuts, my students didn’t think I was serious, and even Leah doubted me. But I truly believe in the power of positive thinking. If you believe it, it will happen. And boy, am I a believer!
It’s a wrap!
iWeb impressions:
 
Apple’s iWeb is an easy tool to help novices create a good looking website. It’s made to work with a .Mac account, which costs $79/yr. Is it worth it? It is if you have no web design experience. Since I already have a host for my personal site, I published these pages to my JoelSolomon.com account.  Apple almost forces users to buy a .Mac account because they make it so much easier to publish a site. If you don’t have .Mac, then you’re left on your own to figure out how to publish your site.
 
 
You’re pretty much stuck with 5 page templates for each design:
  1.  Welcome
  2.  About Me
  3.  Photos
  4.  Blog
  5.  Movies
  6.  Podcasts
 
While this might be nice for people who simply want to share their media files, it’s impossible to create a page from scratch.
 
Pros: Easy to create impressive pages with no design experience, works seemlessly with other iLife apps, drag and drop simplicity
 
Cons: Limited choices of page designs and templates, meant to work with .Mac accounts, pages take longer to load due to unnecessary code that is written
