This is my first time using a blog. I used to hear people talking about blogs and never knew exactly what they were. At one point I thought it was about people with no life. But it is actually much more. It is a place to show who you are really are. When I made my blog I was confused and didn't really know how to use it. I didn't know how to design my page or customize it in any way. As time progressed and I familiarised myself with it, it became much easier. It is actually much fun. You can go follow people and see what they are talking about. Or you could start a conversation/topic of your own. Whatever it may be, you can do whatever because it is yours. Its your place to speak freely about anything on your mind.

Good.
You can see the and read the text. Everything is consistent throughout the website. Download is fast. Links are easy to see. Pictures used to break up large texts. Nothing is too flashy or disruptive.
Bad.
Not able to see text because of background. Text is too small to read. Hyperlinks not underlined. Files that take long to download. Irrelevant graphics. Hard to navigate through website. Cluttered with no distinction.

When i did the wind the turbine project, i learned alot of things. I learned about how the wind turbine produces alternative renewable, clean energy which is good for not only the environment, but for the economy also. It converts wind energy into mechanical energy. There are some bad effects of it tough. It disturbs the migration of birds. It cause disturbing noises which affect the surrounding areas, and those noises cause the values if houses to deppreciate.
The technoloy sectors related to the wind turbine are manufacturing and energy and constructuion.
