2/27/18 - Tuesday

What I was supposed to do What I got done
  1. Learn about blogs
    1. Why you should blog
  2. Learned the Anatomy of a webpage
The difference between blogs and websites is that websites do not change content frequently but can be more professional looking. Blogs are more interactive but may not be as creditable.

We should blog to improve writing skills and can be a better resume.

The "Huffington Post" is the most successful blog, earning over $14 million per month.

Learned terms like HTML, body. URL
