Web Site

I do not know who the web designer is, but a site that I really like is givesmehope.com. This is a very optimistic website where people can share thoughts, moments, and short stories as to who or what gives them hope. The layout is a light blue color  and their logo is a cloud. People are allowed to post their thoughts and then users are allowed to vote on their favorites.



I think this is a very inspirational site and it succeeds in its goal. The layout is simple enough where all one has to do is scroll down and go to the next page to read more, and I think the point of this site is just to allow people to tell their stories about what gives them hope so that other people can read them and it can renew faith.  There are other sites that focus on different things that are in the same format, so it makes it easy to transition from one site to another. They are all linked on the site and I think whoever came up with this really did a great thing.

1. I thought this was an interesting, yet logical paragraph; it reminds us that people used to see time more slowly, there was more of it around us, however as technology improves (like the watch), we are able to do things at a more 'convenient' time and place so that we can do more.
