I have learnt more about web page structure and have experimented with changing a few basic things on a web page to tell a story in one page. I was fascinated by this idea from <a href=\"http:\/\/wrapping.marthaburtis.net\/2011\/03\/14\/firebug-to-the-rescue\/\" target=\"_blank\">Martha&rsquo;s post<\/a> &#8211; choices we make in content, design that enable us to tell a story in one page. In my case I only wanted to play with the content as I wanted it to seem that the content was from the original website and that it was a genuine interview. I was helped by the fact that the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.newscientist.com\/article\/dn22385-ada-lovelace-my-brain-is-more-than-merely-mortal.html#.UnFIyhbtwhB\" target=\"_blank\">original<\/a> webpage was a little tongue in cheek already. The piece was using original quotes from Lovelace writing to simulate an original interview. And with a title of &lsquo;My brain is more than merely mortal&rsquo; &#8211; who could resist creating a Halloween story for our extra radio show?<\/p>\n<p>I was not familiar with the idea of using the web itself to tell stories. I loved some of the examples we learnt about, but my favourite one was the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.phildub.com\" target=\"_blank\">resume as an amazon<\/a> product. In DS106, Martha&rsquo;s idea of a machine that automated DS106 work tickled me but<a href=\"http:\/\/marthaburtis.net\/ds106_amazon.html\" target=\"_blank\"> the page<\/a> is no longer available and when asking her where I could buy one, alas I was dissapointed:<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"image\" src=\"http:\/\/68.media.tumblr.com\/f8a598d7046937ef402801274bc13645\/tumblr_inline_mvhur1dgxa1s4px79.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I loved this week. I (almost) managed to get all the requests on the weekly announcement done and more! Our @talkyteam managed a special Halloween edition of &#8216;DS106 Shrinking the big questions&rsquo; an assignment over and above the call of duty. Once again such a joy to work with this group of people. This time we were busy &#8211; we did not talk to each other on hangouts, we did it all asynch through G-docs and emails under the sterling direction of <a href=\"http:\/\/karenatsharon.blogspot.co.uk\/2013_10_01_archive.html\" target=\"_blank\">Karen &#8216;Bossy&rsquo; Young<\/a>. For myself, I looked at the outline proposed by Karen, added ideas as I thought of them, and just made some art, Bub! Our editor had control over what was used on the final version of the show &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/soundcloud.com\/mariana-funes\" target=\"_blank\">I just had fun creating more audio artefacts<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>I also have done my first live \u00a0radio broadcasts &#8211; a 3 hour marathon with John Johnston to premiere <a href=\"http:\/\/ds106.us\/2013\/10\/19\/headless-radio-shows\/\" target=\"_blank\">our original radio shows<\/a> here in Europe, and a couple of test broadcasts with Alan Levine to enable me to headline our radio show live.<\/p>\n<p>I did not complete the 5 comments with the fictional character on assorted blogs the announcement requested. I wanted to do Chatty Colin commenting on DS106 from a dog&rsquo;s eyes. Or get Mia Culpa my depressed clever vampire to comment of what she saw produced on DS106 blogs. I just ran out of time and was more motivated to create more audio from weeks 7\/8.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>I am likely to create more one page stories, but also I can use what I have learnt in this fun way to adapt pages I may need for my teaching. It was a lot easier than I expected&hellip;.and I only wonder one thing: which data centre in the world stores all the pages <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hackasaurus.org\/en-US\/\" target=\"_blank\">Hackasaurus<\/a> produces? Your webpage link appears as if by magic &#8211; I love that. And yes, I guess I should have downloaded the file and uploaded it to my own site, but life is too short and I <a href=\"http:\/\/theds106shrink.tumblr.com\/post\/59308186471\/theds106shrink-power-corrupts-take-a-picture\" target=\"_blank\">really have no desire for complete recollection<\/a>.
