Yesterday was a great class. If you have not taken Online Journalism and you are reading this blog for whatever reason, take it! You learn a lot and have great guest speakers. Yesterday's tutorial on writing for the online medium was very interesting. I walked away with a clear understanding of the differences between writing for print and writing for the online medium.
It is important to write like a 9th grader is reading your story. This means shorter sentences, an easy vocabulary to understand, pictures, hyperlinks, be brief and concise, and so on. The next few years of website creation, gaming, podcasts and the online medium all together is going to be incredible. Technology is advancing so fast it is hard to keep up. That's why I have two more workshops scheduled for this week for UNIX and DREAMWEAVER II. I'll let everyone know how they went.
I'll be back!
