Problems

There has been many problems when using WIX. Using WIX takes a long time to load to load and expecially when more than half the class is using it as well. The slow internet connection was a problem throughout the whole assessment. Trying to get videos and sounds for the ebook was hard to load and cause many problems. Also when using WIX it frozen many times and many times i was unable to save my progress therefore my information that i was working on was gone.

WIX 3

Overall, using wix to create my website was definately a success for me, because the site was not only easy to use, but also made a page that was aesthetically pleasing. The amount of choices of layout made on my webpage, made it more interesting because every page had a different setting, creating a change and diversity between every page.

Another issue that nearly every user of Wix had to face was to wait for a long period of time for the page to load, which confused me because when i tried the other websites toc create my webpage it didn't lag or i didn't had to wait for a long time for it to load/save. So, waiting was an issue i faced.
Overall i found wix pretty enjoyable and fun to use. In the beggining i found it difficult to use, however now that i am aware of how to use it and how it works it is much simpler and easier to use. It is also helpful for me as i would love to use this webpage in the future if i need to make a presentation for something because now i'm sure how to use it and don't find it difficult.
If i had the opportunity to re-do my webpage, i would have used my time wisely spending the same amout of time and effort in every page, instead of putting soooo much effort into the first few pages and then rushing through the last pages in order to meet the deadline of the due date.
I feel very proud of the work i have done through Wix, and i am planning to use this knowledge in the future, to maybe present in class to replace powerpoints. I also learnt new techniques and information about the whole world of multimedia, including the different types of multimedia., some stuff that i didn't know of before and also about the future of multimedia. How nothing is staying the same, over time technology is becoming more compact and is having more storage place. Can't wait for what's soon to come out!

WIX 2

Overall i find wix pretty enjoying and fun to use. At the start i found it difficult to use, however now that i am aware of how to use it and how it works it is much simpler and easier to use. It is also helpful for me as i would love to use this webpage in the future if i need to make a presentation for something because now i'm sure how to use it and don't find it difficult. 

At the moment i am researching about secoundary storage ( ports).  As well as that i am also trying to collect videos and choosing the music on my presentation. The slow internet has been a huge problem while usin both wix and yotube. 

WIX 1

My wix assignment has been going great, i have done my research for 3 of my topics:
- social networking- ports- handheld devices- Bluetooth.

I only have the research to do for bluetooth then all my research would be completed

At the moment i am working on making my website pretty and filled with attractive items, most of my pges are going well as i have also found some youtube videos to add to my information. I have added many animations and am enjoying this assignment as wix is fun to use.
we have all received an extension till tuesday.

I beleive i have used my time wisely as i am not stressed about this assignment, however i'm going through this assignment calmly.
I am now going to go and add more stuff to my wix website, and go through the checklist miss has made for us incase i havn't done something. This will let me know if i have completed my assignment fully and use my extension days to add anything extra to my page which i have missed.

- friendly to use
- easy to use
- more effects and animation

4. Of the three handheld devices - Notebook, netbook & Ipad – which one would suit your needs and why?

Ipad.
The reason why is because i really like all the feature that the ipad has to offer. The multitasking, multimedia and different applications that apple has to offer.  

5. If I was looking for a UMPC device with a screen size of 10 in or less, which would you recommend? Justify your choice.

Ipad.

THe reason why is because ipad is already small and most of it functions and applications allow for you to have a smalller scree.

6. View some of the videos at this link http://www.umpcportal.com/ .How would you envisage students five years from now using one of these devices at school. Select any UMPC / MID device that you have researched that would meet a students needs, justify your choice.

• Runs a "heavy" OS like Vista
• Optimized for office-use applications like Excel, Word, etc.

MID

• Consumer-class lifestyle device
• Runs a 'lightweight" OS with quick startup like Linux
• Optimized for things like media playback and web surfing
