confessions of a web site designer…

August 27, 2007

ok… i thought i’d update the blog to keep things going around here.

today i bring confessions and frustrations to these digital pages…

I have spent about 5 hours sitting here setting up, registering and editing my new web site. I managed to get my own domain name (web site name for those who don’t know) real cheap which i am really plaesed about in a geeky kind of way! :)

My “soon to be” (hopefully) website will be found at www.missionsandmentoring.com

This is where i’ll put all of my contributions in the future. I have lots of ideas of how i want the site to look and function but (as with all technology) if you want it all to work exactly how YOU want it to work and look then you’ll have to sit there for days on end fiddling, programming, problem solving and tweaking! I have decided to do away with my time-consuming perfectionistic traditions and “bang a site out” that is ‘functional’ for the sake of my sanity and it taking forever instead of concocting a singing-and-dancing web site.

It has been frustrating and taken me so long already to do a ‘functional’ site because i am on a very slow dial-up connection to the internet and the editing side of things is done ‘online’ which slows the whole process down big time. I am, on the other hand, quite pleased that I have internet at all; this is all possible through me ‘tinkering’ with settings and rearching for hours on end on how to connect my phone to my laptop through bluetooth and using it’s internet browsing capabilities! :D

Anyway, I won’t bore you any longer with this… just signing in… and out again ….. … . … … although i doubt a single sou will ever read these first few posts as i haven’t told anyone about this blog yet! However, if you have found this blog through searching or something – well done! why did you search for this blog? what WERE you searching for? have you got too much time on your hands?
