okay, so for the Big Fish article, there were a few misspelled words and grammatical errors. So I decided to fix them all. Nothing big, but the article itself is a pretty good and complete one.

keep em going..

I just made a minor edit to the wikipedia article about iron and wine. Whoever decided to classify Sam Bean as simply a folk singer is incorrect, at least in my mind. I decided to make a compromise and call him a folk rock singer. It gives a little more depth to his musical abilities and style.

more edits..

Longport is honestly probably my favorite place ever, at least in New Jersey. It's only minutes away from my house and where I've grown up, and I love the drive from Longport to Atlantic City. And there was nothing included about the neighboring towns- so I took it upon myself to add that information (but I won't be surprised if my edit gets deleted, everything else has gotten deleted).

last edits for wikipedia!

I just edited the Red Bull article for the last time for this semester. There is plenty else that I could add to the article, but I chose to add to the ingredients of Red Bull. Many people don't know what Red Bull sugar free is sweetened with, and I added that to the article- it's aspartame. And I also added that 'original' Red Bull is sweetened with sucrose and glucose.

I'm on a roll...okay so wikipedia's article on iron and wine had a few grammatical errors in it. And so I took it upon myself to edit them and correct them all. Okay, I think I'm done blogging for now. Time to get outside and enjoy this weather.
a couple of weeks ago I edited the wikipedia article on Longport, New Jersey. Within hours, my edit was removed. But I think it is an important fact! So I am putting it back in. TAKE THAT.

Last Friday, we had the honor of having Lou Honick, CEO of hostmysite.com come and talk to our class. After hearing his speech about his company, I decided to check out his website. And I know that he said that he's not crazy about the appearance and marketing technique of the site, but I kind of like it! The grass has a nice, springtime feel to it (which is great this time of year).
After navigating the site for a bit, it is clear to see that their site stands above their competition. It is very easy to understand (especially for someone like me who knows next to nothing about web hosting) and seems extremely easy to establish your own website.

If these guys can become this successful from their website, it gives hope to someone like me, who hopes to one day become a successful entrepreneur!
