I think I'm in love with MAC computers again. In the past 12 hours, I was able to create a lovely website on iWeb (I actually transferred lots from my old site into my new one and added some neat features). Creating websites is not new to me, as I've always been able to create simple websites using FirstClass. However this time around, I've created ones where people can click on and hear my voice on MP3 files. I'm sooooo excited because my students now have an excellent tool they can use in the comfort of their own homes. They now have the ability to read along with me after hours. I also added a blog feature, but am confused as to how students and/or parents can respond to it. I did include a comment feature but for some reason when I go to my website, it is not working. I must have missed a step in setting up that feature. Hey Gary....if you are reading this message, I need your help...please, pretty please...with many thanks :-).
I'm enjoying using my MAC computer again. If I can figure out how to iron out the bugs, I'll be happier.
Ok, my goal for the next few days is to figure out how to include a game in my site (i.e. memory game).
Until next time.....

I thought I hated MACs

Very nice to see you are enthusiastically using your new tech tools. You have realized that for people to want to visit your website, there needs to be compelling reasons to go there. Thus, the need for interactivity.
Try this. You are using iWeb to make your website but this works with most other website creation programs.
You can insert code from websites that allow you to create chat boxes, forms, polls, etc.
Try inserting a poll from polldaddy.com
You setup a free account with them, and then create a poll using their online tools. They give you some code at the end. You copy and paste this code into the code snippet tool. Learn more here: http://www.apple.com/ilife/iweb/#widgets
