ScreencastđŸŽ„

The website I decided to review is ‘Reddit’. Reddit is pretty well known amongst the internet community but at the same time it hasn’t become mainstream like other social media sites. I started using reddit back in high school. I was back then what they called a “lurker”, which means that you never post anything whether it be questions or feedback. I didn’t actually make my first account until senior year of high school. Reddit is probably my top 3 social media applications that I use besides Twitter and Instagram. Reddit has a very diverse community and it has many different uses. It can be used for entertainment purposes or informative purposes etc.

The assignment itself was easy but downloading screencast was the more difficult task. I was having first downloading the recorder. It kept giving me a buffer every time I tried to install it. I fixed by completely closing down my browser, clearing out my cookies and trying again. After I downloaded the recorder, it took me a few tries before I got the final video down. I was reading through my classmates’ blogs and it seems like they were having technical difficulties as well. Overall, I found this assignment very helpful. It taught me how to properly narrate an video and edit the video.

Zion Williamson Earns the Nickname “Lil Shaq”

Ever since Zion Williamson came back from his injury he has been going off in the court! People started doubting Zion prior to his injury saying stuff such as “he’s a bust” “we wasted a pick on him” etc but the new decade brought in a new force in him. This increase in his performance has caught the eyes of critics and Shaquille O’Neal himself. They share a lot of similarities from the way they shoot to their body types. It’ll be interesting to see how the rest of the season plays out for both Zion and the pelicans.

2020 NBA All-Star Game

This all-star game was one of the best all-star games I’ve seen in years! We had two great teams full of A-star talent battling it out in Chicago this past weekend. On the West coast team we had Lebron James as caption while on the East coast team with had Giannis Antetokounmpo. These captains poured their hearts on the court and successfully lead their teams. However, the West Coast team came out on top with an final score of 157-155. The game started out slow with with Team Lebron winning the first quarter followed with team Giannis winning the second quarter. The last two quarters is where things started heating up. Overall, this was an exciting game to watch!

Adding An Header

Adding an header to my website was a little confusing at first. In the instructions, It stated that under the appearance tab there would be an header link to upload an header but my appearance tab looked totally different and it did not have the header tab. I looked everywhere for the header tab but I couldn’t find it. At last I decided to write my header blog post first and then worry about uploading the header. I know we had the option to either upload an header or upload a picture with your blog post. In the side menu of the ‘blog’ post I can see the ‘featured image’ tab which allows me to upload a picture with my blog post. I’m not really sure if this is the same as the header tab.

Being a blogger its a lot harder than I thought It would be. This is my first time creating a website on WordPress and I must admit It has a really confusing user interface. It will definitely take some time to get used to. Maybe Its just me but I’m having a hard time following the instructions provided by the Professor as the WordPress editing page is hard to navigate through.
