In every site that I reviewed I asked these three simple questions.
- What is the company’s core business?
- What captures your attention?
- What do you think you can do?
Pomplamoose performs BEAT IT
November 8th, 2009
Performed by Jack Conte and Nataly Dawn.
Here is a youtube vid for your viewing pleasure. I saw this and decided that, undeniably, I had to post.
This cover is a Pomplamoose VideoSong, a new medium with 2 rules:
- What you see is what you hear (no lip-syncing for instruments or voice).
- If you hear it, at some point you see it (no hidden sounds).
Be sure to subscribe to their channel. Because once in a blue while (general about every two to four weeks) they post something new. And all their videos are great. Check out their version of Beyonce’s “Single Ladies.” I believe it to be better that the original.

Thoughts and Expectations
October 28th, 2009
There is something about the web that has always fascinated me. Is it the inner workings that no one sees, the massive uses and applications it has, or just the pure beauty of it?
Or all of it.
For some odd reason I’ve been in love with the web for majority of my life. I remember creating my first website in frontpage, uploading it via dial-up and hosting it on (R.I.P) GeoCities. But now times have seriously changed—for the better.
And I think that’s what excites me the most, that it’s always changing and involving into something better. Lets me know that my career choice will always have a challenge, a new language to learn, a new app to toy with. Thus, making the possibilities endless.
When I decided to take this course I had a vague impression of what to expect. I’ve never taken an online class before, worse, even taken a class since my last bit of college experience. But where I’ve been called is where I’ll serve. It’s time to knuckle up and put forth my best effort.
For now farewell. Best of luck to everyone enrolled in the course and I look forward to seeing the progress we make!
