summary:
before I started this unit I was already good at scripting, but now I know how to make my own web page It doesn't take much so I can't really say that I learn much in all honesty. I did learn how to use notepad to create a html and from there use the program filezilla to load in on to the internet. I learn where to properly place things in between tags and how to start new paragraphs I didn't work to hard on this unit because I'm in extreme pain, but I got everything I could get out of it.

Unit 8 Summary
My recommended web site/top-level domain would be edu for my search term I decided to use: Dreams (understanding and interpret*) because It gave me the best results. I did learn a lot about the different way you can search with the site/top-level domains that I never knew before and know it will be real handy when looking for certain search terms. I also learned the ASPECT system and how to make my own citation which I'm sure will eventually come in use.
