I feel I have been very organised this terms when it comes to assignments, and have had the presentation ready for a while now which has given me the benefits of getting feedback on the presentation as well as two run throughs on a projected screen, thanks to Max Hobbs for sitting through them I hope you enjoy it third time round ha, least you know more about CMS hey!

ATWD - resources for February assignment



Another assignment released, making a restful service...

What is REST?

Representational state transfer (REST) is a style of software architecture for distributed hypermedia systems such as the World Wide Web. The term Representational State Transfer (REST) was introduced and defined in 2000 by Roy Fielding[1][2] in his doctoral dissertation. Fielding is one of the principal authors of the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) specification versions 1.0 and 1.1.


From what I can make of it Restful services is a way of trying to get designers to write up systems how the web was meant to be written, and in a format that can be read by computers and then style sheets to be made to produce the file in a human-readable format aswell.

IAD: Presentation



So presentation is less than a week away and I have completed my slide show and have already had a quick run through of my first version. I have since then made a few changes to my slide show including less comparison on just 2 cms technologies and looked at cms as a technology at a more general view.

My current slideshow can be found here

DMP: Poster preparation



This week I have finished my poster and have had a run through of the poster using 2p06 to see how my poster would look projected on the screen.

Here are the photos of this..



As you can see the poster doesn't fit very well so I changed it to portrait (although the content was on its side) and it made a better fit therefore I have now editted my poster and will be testing it Tommorrow to see if it has a better fit on the projecter after the changes I have made.
