This week has proven to be a very eventful and exciting week for us. We have finally set up and published our site, and have a working web address which will be linked in this post. We are still in the process of getting familiar with the site editor, but we should have the process down soon. In fact, it's actually quite fun learning how frustrating it can be to create a website, and we are now starting to show more respect towards those who put their time in effort into making the sites we regularly use today. We have two articles up at the moment, one in technology about iOS 7and one in world news about a Pakistan bus bombing. We should have a sports section up by Monday, and by next Friday we should have a completed site. We also did a pitch for our news site last Thursday, using a news paper to help demonstrate how our news would be written differently than someone's every day news paper. We were nervous at first about how the pitch would go, but it went smoother than expected, and after we explained our idea to the first person that asked us about our project, it was very easy. We are enjoying this experience so far, and look forward to the challenges to come, as we plan to add even more to the site, ranging from better layout of the news sections to even a moderated comment section, where readers can comment on our news reports, giving and sharing their opinions on the events taking place in modern day society (as long as they are appropriate and not offensive), and will also be able to make suggestions to us, which we will use to improve our site in the future.
