More More More.

Today was the continuation of our lesson on the purposes of websites. I like it how Faridah goes through the previous lessons before starting on the new topic. Like a refresher. Kudos to her!

The lesson got draggy in the middle, as with all lessons, but towards the end, we had a fun activity, in which we were to go shopping online! Well not exactly, window shopping actually. With a budget of $500 dollars. I'm like, "Hell, that's SO not enough". But hey, it was fun.

I had EYED viciously the sunglasses Kylie wore in her "In My Arms" video since... Forever? So if I had $500, I'll top it off with another $100 and buy it. Isn't it cool? Don't say she copied Kanye, cause, he ain't got anything on Kylie.

I think the main purpose of shopping websites are to make money. Whether it being advertising or the money earned in the sales. Fame is indeed important for blog shops and such, cause without the connections, people wouldn't visit, because there isn't much faith placed in the shop.

I find this in a way similar to organisational information sites. Fame and authority must be there to sustain the website. The element of faith must be there too, in this case, in the information rather than the products sold. To put bluntly, everyone wants a piece of the fame the internet can bring.

However, getting there, can be through different means. Thus, the various types of websites.

That's about all for today!
