I drove up to Pardeeville High School this morning to be a guest speaker in some business class about web design and to give the kids some information about how you can go about actually publishing a web site you design on the internet.
Here is a list of things that went wrong:
- After quickly figuring out how the projector worked and hooking up my laptop, which worked perfectly, I couldn’t seem to get myself on their network. This killed about two-thirds of my presentation.
- After giving up and hooking up the normal projector computer, many of the websites I wanted to show them were blocked, including the administration panels of my own websites, which I think they would have found interesting.
- I used the rest of the time meandering between subjects as unrelated as what bandwidth is and how CSS works.
- I accidentally swore a couple of times.
Well, I guess if anybody learned anything, it was worth it. At least I got the morning off of work.
Thoughts?

Also CodePen PRO is quite a deal. π
ok,two things; one, I just finished reading everything on overheardinny. that took much longer than I originally thought. two, I bet everybody in the class learned that bumbling mcswearing guy day is much more entertaining than a teacher learny-learn day.
Yeah Overheard in NY is pretty funny usually. And there is a bunch of new stuff on it every single day, which is cool.
