Hello,
I have a story for you today that you may well find quite interesting. Today, at school, I was asking questions in class like normal but the class were laughing at me. I thought it was a valid question, I did not know the answer so I asked for it. At the end of class the teacher spoke to me, basically asking me not to ask questions like that again as it makes me get picked on. This is a very strange matter, should I chose to listen to the teacher and not get picked on? Or should I follow my heart (and brain!) which would lead to understanding more but getting picked on? Well I do not know about you, but I chose to follow myself.
Just a short story but I hope it got you thinking! I told you the story because I was talking to a friend today and he told me that I should ask you all for tips on what you would like to see here. I thought back to the conversation with my teacher, I knew it was the right thing to do. So I will ask you some questions, please could you take the time to answer them?
Would you prefer the subscription form (to the right) moved so that it is next to the RSS image (above where the form is)?
What is your view on the colour scheme?
Which internet browser do you use? (I am asking this because I know there are problems with Internet Explorer 6 at the moment)
What sort of content do you prefer ( eg. Articles, lists, interviews, video, audio etcetera) ?
If this was your website, what would you do to improve it?
Is there anything else you would like to say, I know this is not an interview or anything but I really would appreciate it!
Thank you very much! I hope you now realise that asking questions is good, whether to a teacher, boss or even the whole world through your blog!
Shane
0: Yes, of course I will answer the questions to help you out.
1: Yes, it will stand out more up there too
2: I personally have not seen very many orange designs, so it’s different, can’t really rate it.
3: Firefox 3.0
4: I haven’t had a problem with any of it so far.
5: I would probably add more graphics, for some reason, not sure exactly why but I’m sure I’d find a reason.
6 (other):
Those other kids are twits, ignore them.
7 (other):
Your teacher is a twit for telling you not to ask any form of question, he’s not there to have a picnic is he? He’s there as the teacher for a reason, to help you understand; if you don’t understand, you’re supposed to bloody well ask him and he’s supposed to answer and not give a damn why you asked in the first place!
Just my two cents
/long comment
Stab the teacher, it’s the only way out.
I like the overall site, maybe extend the footer the whole length though.
Would you prefer the subscription form (to the right) moved so that it is next to the RSS image (above where the form is)?
Yes – it would be a whole lot more likely for people to go there to subscribe
What is your view on the colour scheme?
Pretty good – I like it. Possibly make the site more fixed (narrow)? But the scheme is ncie
Which internet browser do you use? (I am asking this because I know there are problems with Internet Explorer 6 at the moment)
I use FireFox 3 at my house, which, 9/10, is the only browser I use
What sort of content do you prefer ( eg. Articles, lists, interviews, video, audio etcetera) ?
All of the above. Mainly articles and interviews would be more helpful, and even at the time, they can be vudeo articles/interviews, and the same with audio.
If this was your website, what would you do to improve it?
Add forums possibly? Also, make me a co owner or some sort of staff
Is there anything else you would like to say, I know this is not an interview or anything but I really would appreciate it!
Will you marry me?
Your teacher is obviously a fucking idiot. Go against the grain dude.
You could of seen which browser was being used by looking at your stats.
Yea, your teacher really is stupid. I guess they never heard the phrase “No stupid questions, just stupid answers” or in this case, stupid teachers.
Out of curiosity. what was the class and question?
@Danny Cooper – I can indeed tell by the stats, but I asked the question so that I could see how many people use browsers like IE6 who comment.
@Jacob Nicholson – Thank you. And no, I will not marry you!! Class was History and there was quite a few questions but one was “What is Biblical?”. I asked this question because he wanted to compare Biblical times with Roman times and I always thought the Romans were same time as Jesus, as didn’t the Romans kill Jesus?
@James Murphy – Hmm.. I am not going to stab anyone! About the footer.. I shall try to fix that
@Scott – Thank you Scott, that will help me lots! And I totally agree with your comment about the teacher.
