And further more…
I think I may need to use a widget to possibly connect this blog to my other blog. I have an old one on Livejournal. I haven’t updated it in a while, but I want to… A lot of my posts were set to “Friends Only” so you might not be able to see the meaty stuff. I see that WordPress has password protection here so I might give a few friends a password in case I want to vent.
I have had that journal for years. My closest friend (besides my husband) Mandy and I used to share a type of journal in high school. We would write in a spiral and then leave it in each others locker. The other would pick it up, read it and then write their own journal. It was way cool, or at least in my mind! Little did we know that we were forerunners in the web world! The first blog! Okay, not a “web log” per say, but it was social and journaling. I am pretty sure I still have a journal or two we used. It’s probably packed away with all my other stuff.
Perhaps if I had taken that idea from so long ago, we would be rolling in the dough (and then losing it in the dot com bust). Let’s see, the web started in the 90’s. First website was created in 1991…and look how far we’ve come! Yep, that was about the time Mandy and I were putting journals in lockers.
I just noticed that Wordpress is ignoring my HTML structure (even the one it creates). The lists in my last post don’t have bullet points, what gives? Why give the option, and then not follow through?!
Also, “Superstar in my Own Private Movie” is kind of a long title for this blog, perhaps for a tagline instead. What witty and cool title can I use? Maybe something clever dealing with being a latina webbess, latina webber, latina muy fina, latina cochina…hm, gina cochina, latinista, webinista, ginagwen?
My name is Gina and I am a Web Design & Interactive Media college instructor in Austin, Texas. I received my Masters in Instructional Technology from UT Austin and my undergrad in TV/Film from TAMU-CC. My focus for this blog is wide...I am interested in web design, teaching college level students, being an artist, a Latina, and pretty much anything else that comes into my head!
Lol, loved reading about your “old school blog” with Mandy.
Can’t help you too much with the name of your blog. I personally favor Gina Gwen, mostly cause I love your name.
Gina Cochina. HA, that is just wrong!
Gina Cochina
un latina muy fina
It’s catchy, I’ll give you that.
Gina Gwen it is. Makes sense, especially since my domain is that
