Well, I suppose I’m supposed to start a blog for CISS 215. I’ll be posting all these under the category “School Blog”. For those who are my usual readers, you probably personally know me so this first post will probably be irrelevent to you.
Let’s start with my name. It’s Brendan Do.
A background of computing in my life? Well, a good summary would be that I’m a developer, specifically a web developer. I specialize in PHP, XHTML, CSS, AJAX, and Javascript. I also have some knowledge in C#, Java, and C++.
Next on the agenda are my interests. I suppose my interests are mainly technology, cars, multimedia, and web & application development. Everyday I keep up with a few blogs. I read Gizmodo and Autoblog mainly to keep up with recent and future technology and cars.
My goals for this class are to achieve an ‘A’, expand my knowledge on creating several multimedia projects using the tools I have, and possibly improving my lack of visual creativity.
Concerns about this class? I guess my main concern for this course is my lack of visual creativity. I’m more about functionality than visual effect, which is why I’m a developer.
