As I write this, I find a lot of Internet doors opening up to me. Giving back something to the Internet, even if it comes in the form of links or homepage accounts does have its fruits. The first fruit is more familiarity with the ways of the Net. After more than two months of surfing, the Net has brought me to sources of information and services that I never knew existed before. The "training" I got from building my web pages has initiated me into a kind of knowledge that only a few in my country and in the University where I work are privy to. How have my new found skills helped others:
1. With my growing familiary with HTML and Javascripts, I have been able to help my friends with their homepages. Those friends whom I have helped get started now have another reason -- apart from getting information -- to surf the Net.
2. Personally, I find it satisfying to be able to make a "dead" website come to life just by linking it to a free service and adding a few pages to it. I am referring to our University's homepage which has also benefitted from the skills I developed during these past two months.
3. The Theology2000 homepage I made for our Theology Department has begun to generate some hits since November 3 when I detached it from my classpages it placed it on a different address. (It has a Quick Loading version here in Tripod).
From hereon, the possibilities are limited only by my browser and Internet connection. And you, what do you think? [Click here to make your comment.]
