Reflection Blog

My audience is bowlers in general. Any one that is a pro bowler, beginner, or just plain bowl for fun. The purpose of my webtext is to inform people about the Storm manufacturing company, mainly there bowling balls. The design didn't work out how I wanted it to, I wanted the side colum, but I couldn't get it to work and it kept messing up my text so I gave up. It is organized from least amount of information to the greatest amount of information. I think any bowler will be glad to have a site that tells what each type of bowling ball is used for and some examples of that type of bowling ball.
I am very proud of the way it turned out. I really like the pictures and all the links. I think it looks good and is easy to read. I think the pictures of the bowling balls will aid a person in knowing what they are looking for.
If I had had more time I would have figured out how to do those stupid columns. It just got to the point where I couldn't waste anymore time on figuring it out. I think this is what I would have improved on as well. If I knew all about the technology, I would have been able to figure it out no problem.
My research came from the official Storm website. There is no better site to use than the official one for your topic! It had all the information I needed and more. It is easy to find things and even easier to gain the knowledge you need. My supplemental sources are links to bowling ball review pages. These will take the reader to a page that actual bowlers use to comment on the ball they throw. Anyone can comment from pros to beginners so they really are a great thing to look at before you go to get a ball. One is strictly Storm balls and the other two are any bowling ball. I always go to a ball review site before I spend the money on a ball. I can read all about the pros and cons that other people have found and determine if it really is the ball I want.
All in all I think that this project went well. I enjoyed doing the project and I learnded how to work some new programs.
