Potential Ideas

  • Use Imgur to post new images
  • Create own artwork? too hard
  • Can use video links
Use google

site:blogger.com type something you want to look at here.


google mot popular blogs and study their formating/design/ what they post etc. 

if you wnat to make a broad blog, you can use tags to separate each type of thing that is posted in order to keep it sorted
>example of this is "butdoesitfloat.com"



Daily drawings + progress pics
combined with latest funny imgur images? or art?
combined with funny posts from  AskReddit?
combined with music from popular music channels? or ones I like

NEED GOOD INSPIRATION

need a name for website  + strong ideas of content = text/images/videos/etc
good website for tips

#18 Write down all the thoughts you had in mind today – This is pretty mindf*#?, but if you are bored then you can try this method as well.

presenting stuff you like is not enough

link where you get everything from.


Post a quote every now and then?


strategy, unique content, is important

Important Notes for Rationale of your Blog

you need to pick a specific subject that is a "niche" to base your blog around

Niche is a kind of guaranteed audience.

if you choose to go broad it is harder to get an audience > justify why you did this
or choose a very specific topic which is only aimed at a certain audience.

think aobut what you need in this brief

How you came to develop your idea 
> how you design your blog
>how often you post
>Template 
>How you relate to your target audience 
>Presentation of site
>
>Tailoring of your content 

Basically just writing down what you're going to do
>how you came upon this website concept + ideas that you have scrapped
>Design decisions
>Inspirational sites/blogs
>Appropriateness of your site to your topic 
>how have you designed your site to attract your audience + relate to topic
>WHy you chose to use a certain gadget/widget + quite specific elements (poles to vote on, links, how it is laid out)

>Consistant format + easy to read your website (need good grammar etc)
>Effective use of the medium >
> intergration 
> how have you made use of the things the internet has provided 
> reposting images/video/sound 
> this allows a more broader range of audience

better to include stuff from Youtube + Soundcloud + Imgur
>which translates to new material

>need to be constantly aware of new material 
>you want to be reasonably descriptive in terms of explaining why you did things
> Point >Why > Reestablish point (Not expecting essay) > Make your point simple and clear

Link Testing


Important Notes

  • Write interesting things about images that are posted.
  • Add as much "meta" information to posts as possible
  • like why you like this image
  • what made you post it
  • who is the photographer/creator/etc
