Mock Page Warfare

Hey readers out there. This is another official blog entry concerning my NDSU class Electronic Communications. This week we are talking about a mock web page, a model we created to roughly represent what our finished web page will look like, and are now just troubleshooting to make sure that the web page works properly and is user friendly.

Now, the mock page that we have created has some connections between the producers and the readers because we plan on having a mission statement on the home page, directly stating what the point of this web page is and our overall goal with the information presented here in. The category types (city life, rural life, entertainment...) are all catered to the reader to better help them navigate the web site and find the information that they are looking for. The design so far is kind of bland however, with only pics and short text blurbs being the style on the main page. That should change upon looking at the templates if a Content Management System.

That should be our focus for creating this web page, not just the type of information but the display. With the templates of a CMS on our side, we should be able to add some interesting effects, styles, and colors to our web page so that it is not a plain Jane white electronic newspaper dealing with business in the city of Fargo, N.D.

Overall, I do believe that this Web site will eventually be very cool and useful to any reader in the community, or even in other classes dealing with web design and execution of development. Anyways, the next entry will be dealing with some pretty good horror films I've been watching so stay tuned for some fun info. Bye for now gore hounds...
