Well this week in class we all got a shock when our Professor informed us that he had been laid off from his full time job. What can I say except I hate to hear that and I know how you feel since I myself was laid off and a month later my husband was. We are still looking for work. We are now looking out of state on the hope that the economy is a little better else where. It is hard to think about leaving since we don't even have the money to get out of here. I also hate to leave because I have really made some good friends here in Florida. Well enough said lets get to what I am suspose to actually be doing her on this blog. Talking about what I learned this week in class.
One of the thing I most remember was talking about was stickiness. No, not that I have been playing with something sticky but, How to get a person to come and stay at a web site. How companies use this technique on web sites to grap us and then get us to keep coming back to their site. I mainly remember this because I thought it was a kinda funny term to use.
Another thing we talked about in class was a Portal (Web Portal). This is a web site that you use to do much of your searching and navigating from. Like when you go to Yahoo you will then go to other sites like a career finding site or horoscopes, weather and too many others to mention. Well at least I am starting to learn what I am looking at or what I am doing when I go down and click on horoscopes. I now know it is a portal and I am beginning to understand why things are like they are on these sites. That there is a purpose behind all of it and it is not just to irritate me. It is a huge marketing scheme where they all kinda come together.
