Update New Tumblr Blog

Saturday, August 1st, 2009
Laptop, Samsung Epix SmartPhone and Textbook

OK , I know it has been way to long in blog days since I made a post or an update. I did get me a Tumblr blog so that I would have a place for the RSS Feed from this and my other blogs, my Twitter and other content all to be posted in one place to make it a little easier to find. I know with me having so many and all, it can at times be a chore bookmarking them all. I am happy to say that I will be making a website for My Samsung Epix, I know I posted about this ages ago in blog years, but now I get to make one for my college class, which I think is very kool. I get to work on something I wanted to do anyway, and get a grade and college credit for it at the same time. The school thing is what is taking up most of my time, who knew college would be so time consuming :lol: . This Tumblr page will as I said give me one central place to have the RSS feeds and even maybe my delicious links if the testing of that goes well. I am testing out tons of apps now, so that when I get into the coding of the webpages, all will be in XHTML, done in Dreamweaver CS4, I will have plenty of pages worth of content. The minimum is ten pages, but I am thinking I can knock that out without issue since I pretty much test any and every app I get my hands on that works with my Windows Mobile Professional 6.1 . So for any of you that care to see my content, you can just bookmark the Tumblr blog and then if you see anything you deem worthy of a read you can click the link from there and it will take you straight to the content you desire.


One last note, on my blog at blog.kstudent.com I added the disqus comment system. If you do not know what this is, it is just a way for you to not have to make an account and be more interactive on the site. On here I use IntenseDebate, I figured since the content is Identical on the two blogs, the only difference is the version and plugins I use this would be a good way to tell what comment plugin would encourage the most interaction. So with that I must grab a bite to eat and get some sleep as I have class to work on tomorrow, keep checking in with me. My term is ten weeks so at the end of it I should have one helluva site for WinMo and apps for the SmartPhones.

Grades are in for my first term and second starting soon

Thursday, May 7th, 2009

I am happy to announce that my grades for my first term are in. I received a 99 in both classes, 99.40 in my Strategies class and a 99.70 in my Web Design class. I am thrilled with the outcome and to find out I placed top of my class in web design. There were many talented people in my class and I lead but just under one percent point. I hope to continue working hard, setting reasonable goals and working as hard as I can to obtain those goals.

The upcoming term I am taking a composition class and web design 247. The comp class I am not to thrilled about but plan to do my best in it. The web design class I am ready for as we learned a lot of the basics in 117, and now I wanna know the not so basics. I want to code the code least coded, write the site least written and do the tasks that take a few brain freezes and a walk away and return or two.

I am overall happy with my start at Kaplan University, I as many of you that will read this I’m sure, was very skeptical on how much I could possibly learn from an “Online University”. Is this just a joke or waste of my time I wondered. Well I have learned a good bit and have just a little over 10 weeks under my belt.

On a personal note my baby boy is doing great almost is 5 months old and is very healthy and happy. My wife is doing well aside from the normal blues of mothers whom have to return to work and leave that bundle of joy at home for any amount of time , but she is handling it like a trooper.

Well I have blabbed enough and school starts oficially at 10:59p.m. Central time tommorow night so I should go ahead and get some rest, because if last term is any indicator I will be living on 3 to 6 hours of sleep tops for the next 10 weeks and 10 days off past me by quicker than I can comment.
