MM Web Text

Today in class I decided to do my final web text on Eco-friendly homes. I am going to do my podcast on Eco-friendly interior designs.

podcast reflection

My podcast was a huge success to me. I did my best, so hopefully I will get an A for effort!! At first, I was totally overwhelmed with the whole thing. Since everyone got bad grades on the first assignment, I was especially nervous about this one. I didn't realize until today though that I forgot to post my references. UHH. I was so focused on my podcast and how it sounded that it slipped my mind. I will see how it gets graded though!?!?

podcast topic

I came up with my podcast topic now. I am doing mine on household budgeting. This is important because without a budget you can drive yourself into debt that is difficult to get out of. Bad spending habits lead to a negative credit report. By developing good spending habits, you can enjoy the finer things in life because you will have enough money saved, and credit ability to achieve it.

I did my web text on the real estate process because I knew that my audience needed to be informed on the topic. As a realtor, I find that younger buyers experience a lot frustration with buying a home. Since they are so overwhelmed, they make poor decisions to move the sale quickly.
I am proud of my web text. I had no clue that I can create a website like that on my own. The final outcome could have been better if I had a little more time to work on it. Overall, I am pretty damn impressed with this class and that assignment.
If I had better technical knowledge while doing this assignment, I would have added some better graphics, or links to my home tutorials. I also would have added pictures of homes that have damage. What it looks like and knowing where to look for it.
Looking back at my project I wish I would have done that. I should have put up pictures of water leaks, mold, structural damage (cracked foundation), and some others. Most of my readers are not going to know what this looks like. Most people think that it will get picked up in an inspection. It will. But the buyer has to pay for the inspection unless it is worked out in the purchase agreement of the contract. If the inspector finds structural damage to the home and a purchase agreement has already been signed.. It’s hard to walk away from. If you are released from the contract than you would be out the $200 for the inspection. No one likes to be out money!
So I would have liked to put up those pictures. But I am happy with how I organized my information. I felt that my readers weren't going to read my web text and see only gibberish.

Disregard my last entry... my last entry didn't link me to the right web page.
