Smart Decision

This week I spent time updating the smart decision website.  I did all of the usual items, and the began working on the huge project of transcribing the April ballot forms from the surrounding counties.  I was able to finish one county and then passed the job over to Vicki.  I also spent the time working on my website (with you) and found a way to get the video in the right format for iWeb, however we still need to solve the problem with sound.  All of the videos converted lacked sound.  On another note, I'm hoping to send you my cover letter soon.  It's a little different, but the approach I hope is unique and fits the mold and purpose of a cover letter.  I have my resume (hard copy) done.  The website is coming along as well.  I have all the video I want to use for the website except I need to change my slate to include my gmail account.  I think I'm pretty well underway as far as where we are in the semester...hopefully!

Web Work

This week I worked on the web. I had a lot of stories to look at but got done with some extra time. Things seemed to go pretty smoothly. I think I'm finally getting into a rhythm of the tasks that need to be done. However, especially with Smart Decision, I know that being a week off of it, I always need some refresher time to get used to everything. I'm getting comfortable posting stories online and making sure the categories are the right ones. I still haven't gotten down setting up a new Links and Numbers page. Mike showed me how to do it again this past week.

As far as my E-portfolio goes, I've been working on my Cover letter...trying to come up with something that will stand out. Also, trying to work on something for Flash, but I'm not sure the two (Flash and iWeb) will work together.

Helping KBIA

On Thursday, I was working for the Smart Decision page.  There wasn't too much to do.  I updated the Missourian links.  They were a little behind so I had a few to do.  In addition, I worked to update the KBIA Talk Politics show and re-downloaded the shows and put them on Youtube.  I then asked around the dot com area to see if there was anything I needed to.  

I'm continuing to work on my portfolio...waiting to hear about the resume!
