INTERNET CLASSES


AS SOME OF YOU KNOW MARY AND I HAVE BEEN TAKING CLASSES ABOUT THE INTERNET THIS SPRING. WE HAVE LEARNED A LOT !!!

TODAY I'D LIKE TO DISCUSS PAGE RANK. ALL INTERNET PAGES ARE RANKED ON A SCALE OF 1 TO 10, AND I'M KEEPING THIS SIMPLE. FOR EXAMPLE IF YOU GO TO THE HOMEPAGE FOR HONDA MOTORCYCLES, THEIR PAGE RANK IS 5/10. ANOTHER EXAMPLE WOULD BE AMY'S BLOG WHICH HAS A RANKING OF 0/10.

THE HAPPY CAMPERS BLOG HAS A PAGE RANKING OF 2/10. THERE ARE MANY FACTORS CONSIDERED TO COME UP WITH THIS RANKING. THE WEBSITES ARE MORE OR LESS CRAWLED OVER BY INTERNET SPIDER ROBOTS THAT CHECK THE PAGES. OUR RANKING IS DUE TO THE DAILY CHANGES AND 55 DAILY READERS (THANKS TO YOU ALL).

WITH A RANKING OF 2/10 OUR BLOG ACTUALLY HAS SOME VALUE, THEREFORE WE WILL BE EXPERIMENTING WITH SOME INTERNET TRICKS OVER THE NEXT FEW MONTHS LIKE ADVERTISING.

THERE MAY ALSO BE SOME BLOGS THAT ARE KINDA OFF THE WALL, AS COMPANIES WILL ACTUALLY PAY US A FEW CENTS TO BLOG ABOUT THEIR PRODUCTS.

BEAR WITH US AS WE TEST OUT SOME OF THE NEW INFORMATION WE'VE BEEN LEARNING IN CLASS, AND REST ASSURED THAT THE MISSION STATEMENT OF THE BLOG WILL NOT CHANGE.

THANKS FOR YOUR UNDERSTANDING.

AND "THANKS" TO UNCLE HANS FOR CARRYING THE BLOG THIS WEEK. IT'S BEEN A RATHER BUSY WEEK FINISHING UP THOSE ITEMS WE'VE PUT OFF ALL WINTER, PREPARING TO HIT THE ROAD FOR THREE WEEKS, AND STILL FINDING TIME TO STUDY FOR OUR INTERNET CLASSES.

I SAVED THE BEST NEWS FOR LAST........ TODAY IS SATURDAY AND OUR LAST NIGHT OF WORK AT THE AVI!!!!


AS WE HIT THE ROAD INTERNET ACCESS WILL BE HIT AND MISS, BEAR WITH US AS WE WILL CATCH UP THE BLOG WHEN WE CAN.
