Web Pages
1. Web 1.0 – refers to the first stage in the World Wide Web, which was
entirely made up of the Web pages connected by hyperlinks.
2. Web 2.0 – is the evolution of Web 1.0 by adding dynamic pages. The user
is able to see a website differently than others.
– Allows users to interact with the page; instead of just reading the page, the
user may be able to comment or create user account.
Static Web Page- is known as a flat page or stationary age in the sense that
the page is ‘’as is’’ and cannot be manipulated by the user. The content is also
the same for all users that is referred to as Web 1.0
Dynamic Web Pages– web 2.0 is the evolution of web 1.0 by adding
dynamic web pages. The user is able to see website differently than others e.g.
social networking sites, wikis, video sharing sites.
b)Bookmarking Sites – Sites that allow you to store and manage links to
various website and resources. Most of the sites allow you to create a tag to
others.
d) Media Sharing – sites that allow you to upload and share media
content like images, music and video.

1. Client computers – clients are the device that the end user interact
with cloud.
2. Distributed Servers – Often servers are in geographically different
places, but server acts as if they are working next to each other.
3. Datacenters – It is collection of servers where application is placed and
is accessed via Internet.

term.
Question
a question may be entered in the search field of search engine
Advanced
Features are offered on many engines by going to an
“Advanced search” page and making selections. Effective in narrowing
search returns to a specific topic or phrase.
A. Mail Merge
In this particular part of our lesson, we will learn one of the most
powerful and commonly used features of Microsoft Word called Mail Merge.
As the name suggests, this feature allows you to create documents and
combine or merge them with another document or data file. It is commonly
used when sending out advertising materials to various recipients.
Also included in the form document is what we call place holders, also
referred to as data fields or merge fields. This marks the position on your
form document where individual data or information will be inserted. From
our sample document, the place holders are denoted or marked by the text
with double-headed arrows (<< >>) on each side and with a gray background.
On a printed standard form, this will be the underlined spaces that you will
see and use as a guide to where you need to write the information that you
need to fill out. In its simplest form, a form document is literally a “form” that
you fill out with individual information. A common example of a form
document is your regular tax form or application form.
B. Label Generation
A. Kinds of Materials
1. Pictures
a. .JPG/JPEG
This is pronounced as “jay-peg“ and is the short form of .jpeg or Joint
Photographic Experts Group. Like all the rest of the image file extensions, it
identifies the kind of data compression process that it uses to make it more
compatible and portable through the Internet. This type of image file can
support 16.7 million colors that is why it is suitable for use when working with
full color photographic images. Unfortunately, it does not support
transparency and therefore, images of this file type can be difficult to
integrate in terms of blending with other materials or elements in your
document. But if you are looking for the best quality image to integrate with
your document then this is the image file type for you. .JPG does not work
well on lettering, line drawings, or simple graphics. .JPG images are relatively
small in file size.
b. .GIF
This stands for Graphics Interchange Format. This type of image file is
capable of displaying transparencies. Therefore, it is good for blending with
other materials or elements in your document. It is also capable of displaying
simple animation. Apparently, this may not be too useful on a printed
document but if you are sending documents electronically or through email,
or even post documents into a website, then this could be quite impressive.
The downside is that it can only support up to 256 colors so it is good mostly
on logos and art decors with very limited, and generally solid colors. .GIF is
much better for logos, drawings, small text, black and white images, or low-
resolution files.
c. .PNG
2. Clip Art
This is generally a .GIF type; line art drawings or images used as generic
representation for ideas and objects that you might want to integrate in your
document. Microsoft Word has a library of clip arts that is built in or can be
downloaded and used freely. There are still other clip arts that you can either
purchase or freely download and use that come from third-party providers.
3. Shapes
These are printable objects or materials that you can integrate in your
document to enhance its appearance or allow you to have some tools to use
for composing and representing ideas or messages. If you are designing the
layout for a poster or other graphic material for advertising, you might find
this useful.
4. Smart Art
5. Chart
Another type of material that you can integrate in your Word document that
allows you to represent data characteristics and trends. This is quite useful
when you are preparing reports that correlate and present data in a graphical
manner. You can create charts that can be integrate in your document either
directly in Microsoft Word or imported from external files like Microsoft
Excel.
6. Screenshot
This is the default setting for images that are inserted or integrated in your
document. It treats your image like a text font with the bottom side totally
aligned with the text line. This setting is usually used when you need to place
your image at the beginning of a paragraph. When placed between texts in a
paragraph or a sentence, it distorts the overall appearance and arrangement
of the texts in the paragraph because it will take up the space it needs
vertically, pushing whole lines of texts upward.
B. Square
This setting allows the image you inserted to be placed anywhere with the
paragraph with the text going around the image in a square pattern like
frame.
C. Tight
This is almost the same as the Square setting, but here the text “hug” or
conforms to the general shape of the image. This allows you to get a more
creative effect on your document. This setting can mostly be achieved if you
are using an image that supports transparency like a .GIF or .PNG file.
D. Through
This setting allows the text on your document to flow even tighter taking the
contours and shape of the image. Again, this can be best used with .GIF or
.PNG type of image.
This setting pushes the texts away vertically to the top and/or the bottom of
the image so that the image occupies a whole text line on its own.
F. Behind Text
This allows your image to be dragged and placed anywhere on your document
but with all the texts floating in front of it. It effectively makes your image
look like a background.
G. In Front of Text
As it suggests, this setting allows your image to be placed right on top of the
text as if your image was dropped right on it. That means whatever part of the
text you placed the image on, it will be covered by the image.
2)Inserting Shapes
4)Slide Transitions
5)Adding Animations
2.Clarity: Avoid being to fancy by using font style that is easy to read. Make
sure that it is also big enough to be read by the audience. Once you start
making your presentation, consider how big the screen is during your report.
4. Visual: Use graphics to help in your presentation but not too many to
distract the audience. In addition, instead of using table of data, use charts
and graphs.
6. Contrast: Use a light font on dark background or vice versa. This is done
so that it is easier to read. In most instances, it is easier to read on screen if
the background is dark. This is due to the brightness of the screen.
IMAGE FORMATS
Ø GIF a lossless format for image files that supports both animated and
static images.
Ø .3ds is one of the file formats used by the Autodesk 3Ds Max 3D
Modelling, animation and rendering software.
SELECTION One of the prerequisites for many of the app mentioned below
is a method of selecting part(s) of an image, thus applying a change
selectively without affecting the entire picture
IMAGE SIZE resize images in a process often called image scaling, making
them larger, or smaller. High image resolution cameras can produce large
images which are often reduced in size for Internet use.
CLONING uses the current brush to copy from an image or pattern. It has
many uses: one of the most important is to repair problem areas in digital
photos.

Within each member’s personal profile, there are several key networking
components. The most popular is arguably the Wall, which is essentially a
virtual bulletin board. Messages left on a member’s Wall can be text, video or
photos. Another popular component is the virtual Photo Album. Photos can
be uploaded from the desktop or directly from a smartphone camera. There is
no limitation on quantity, but Facebook staff will remove inappropriate or
copyrighted images. An interactive album feature allows the member’s
contacts (who are called generically called “friends”) to comment on each
other’s photos and identify (tag) people in the photos. Another popular
profile component is status updates, a microbloggingfeature that allows
members to broadcast short Twitter-like announcements to their friends. All
interactions are published in a news feed, which is distributed in real-time to
the member’s friends.
2. Instagram
Instagram is an online mobile photo-sharing site that allows its users to
share pictures and videos either publicly or privately on the app, as well as
through a variety of other social networking platforms, such
as Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, and Flickr. Originally, a distinctive feature was
that it confined photos to a square shape, similar to Kodak Instamatic and
Polaroid SX-70 images, in contrast to the 4:3 aspect ratio typically used by
mobile device cameras. In August 2015, version 7.5 was released, allowing
users to upload media captured in any aspect ratio. Users can also apply
digital filters to their images. Videos on Instagram debuted in June 2013,
allowing prerecorded square standard definition resolution clips of up to 15
seconds to be shared; later improvements added support
for widescreenresolutions of up to 1080p and longer recording times for
either prerecorded (up to one minute) or disappearing live (up to one hour)
videos.
Instagram was created by Kevin Systrom and Mike Krieger, and launched in
October 2010 as a free mobile app. The service rapidly gained popularity,
with over 100 million active users as of April 2012[10][11] and over 300 million
as of December 2014.[12] Instagram is distributed through the Apple App
Store and Google Play.[13]Support for the app is available
for iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch, Windows 10 devices and Android handsets,
while third-party Instagram apps are available for BlackBerry 10 and Nokia-
Symbian Devices.
3. Twitter
Twitter is an online news and social networking service where users post
and interact with messages, “tweets,” restricted to
140 characters. Registered users can post tweets, but those who are
unregistered can only read them. Users access Twitter through its website
interface, SMS or a mobile device app.[10] Twitter Inc. is based in San
Francisco, California, United States, and has more than 25 offices around the
world.
BLOGGING SITES
1. Weebly
Weebly is one of the easiest website builders in the market. They allow you to
drag and drop content into a website, so it’s very intuitive to use (click here to
see our opinion on Weebly).
By using Weebly’s website building elements, you can literally drag them into
your website and have a website built relatively quickly, and painlessly. The
beauty of this system is that you can pretty much drag the elements to
wherever you want – so it’s not very restrictive on where and how you place
your website content.
2. Tumblr
Tumblr is perfect for people who don’t need a full blog to publish lengthy
posts. It’s also great for people who prefer to publish quick multimedia posts,
particularly from their mobile devices. Tumblr is also a great choice for
people who want to join a larger community. If a blog is too much or too big
for you, but Twitter is too small or too little for you and Instagram isn’t
versatile enough for you, then Tumblr might be just right for you.
If you want to track your stats, you can add any analytics tracking code to
your Tumblelog. Some users will even burn a feed with Feedburner, create
custom themes, and use their own domain names
3. Pinterest
A “board” is where the user’s pins are located. Users can have several boards
for various items such as quotes, travel or, most popularly, weddings. A “pin”
is an image that has either been uploaded or linked from a website. Once
users create boards and add pins, other users can now repin, meaning they
can pin one user’s image to their board as well. Once the user has set up their
account and boards, they can browse, comment, and like other pins. Users
might be discouraged by repeated images and difficult-to-follow direct
linking features. Pinterest has also added the option of making boards
“secret” so that the user can pin to and view boards that only the user can see
when logged into their own account.
Pinterest does not generate its own content; rather, it draws from many
resources around the web and compiles them in one convenient location for
users.
ADVANTAGE :
– Everything moves fluently, and you can easily preview what you want.
DISADVANTAGE :
-A lot of HTML code churned out by the editors is superfluous which makes
the web pages bulky in file size
-WYSIWYG editors let you ignore certain aspects that are important.
2.) List Down (3) more WYSIWYG web hosting services and their
URL.
