Research on Personal Websites Review



        Out of all the websites that i looked at i think Red Russak, Roxine Knee, and Devon Stank had websites that caught my eye the most. When you first click on Russak's website you see a huge animated head of, i assume, is him. To me that is very eye catching. In Knee's website she starts off with a background picture of herself with the title saying "Hi im Roxine". Then she goes on to say what she does in a short sentence. Then right up under the picture i think its pretty cool how she describes what she is doing currently right now.  In Stank's website, His Logo is his initials which is what i'm personally doing as my logo. He has in big letters what he is and what he does. But what is most interesting is his background because its a video of himself which already plays as you first click his link and then you have an option the watch the full video. I can see myself picking parts For each of these three to make my own website.  






    Personally, i would like to build my website more Like Red Russak. I want to have my homepage be an eye catcher of who i am. Then have links for people to press on so the can get full details of my accomplishments. Then have a link to what i am currently doing like Roxine did. Then at the top right maybe have two headers for a resume or my complete about Me bio. And maybe in the future i can post a video of an interview of myself kind of like Devon Stank.

Potential Color schemes in logo

 










 I Picked these color schemes because all of them have at least one of my favorite colors which is purple and blue. 

I want my logo color to be colors that complement each other or colors that are combine that make the logo stand out. 



YOU Project!

Reflections on Social Dilemma




  •  All the interviews seemed timid because  they didn't realize the platform they helped build would cause tragic reactions. 

  • There's a problem, how long will it take for it to be fixed? because at one point in time the was no internet there was no social media. 

  • examples of companies trying to get you intrigued is using filter bubbles where they place an ad that shows something you might be interested in so you click. i know pinterest will post adds on instagram.  

  • Its crazy how its not illegal for them to be watching use like this. but we control how we use social media. 

  • social media is additive, some people cant take not being without their phone. 

  • its crazy how back in the day parents didnt have to really worry about what games and toys to buy their kids but now kids can get gadgets that contain the internet that they have to worry if this can cause problems. 

  • we get political propaganda in our ads that are relative to the area we live in- its the way the gov't can manipulate an election 

  • i remember when i worked at family dollar during covid and a customer told me that i had to stop eating Chinese food because it known to be in it but it was fake news
