Further Website Development

I abandoned Kompozer and set my webpage up using Google Sites. I found this to be very user-friendly, and easy to move between WYSIWYG and HTML, so I could adjust the code for things such as the text for links, which default to the URL. For now I have set it up with my links for facebook, myspace, and my blog. To compliment this i made a simple picture in photoshop to have as a common element on all of my pages. I will eventually replace this with a better image. One idea that I had was to create an image of myself using Illustrator, and using this to replace photos. This would be more appropriate, and give me a vague sense of anonymity (despite the huge amount of information about myself I have already posted).
I also provided my work and education histories, with links to all the relevant websites, and created a secondary page to put some sort of CV on. Using Google Sites means I can easily create further pages, which may be a good way to separate the personal and professional aspects of my site. I attempted to post a video using the 'add video' function, but I couldn't make it work. I also attempted adding it manually in the HTML section, but it was removed due to "dangerous tags". I would have made further attempts, but the video was really more of a space-filling idea. It is something that I will work on more when I have a specific video in mind.
I also attempted to use the "add gadgets" function, but couldn't get them to work properly either, as I wasn't able to move or resize or adjust them effectively. This again is something I will make more attempts at when I have a more specific purpose in my mind. At this point the site looks very basic and not at all interesting. I think my next step will be to attempt to add a background, or at very least some images, and continue to expand from there.
I have also begun adding to my Myspace. I started to list bands, films, etc, but decided it would be more interesting to set each one up as a link. I have done this with TV shows, but need to look at setting it up differently to ivercome the problem of navigating away from Myspace (I plan to look into whether I can add something in the code that will make it default to a new window). In music I will probably overcome this by linking to the band's Myspace pages. I also added my photoshop image, and linked to my other pages. I plan to work a lot more on the background and format of my Myspace to turn it into something much more unique (and easier to look at).
I still haven't done much work on the actual profile of my Facebook, as I have been putting my time into my profile HTML. I want to explore this further and look at what else I can do with my profile HTML to make my Facebook more interesting.
I've also customised the appearance of my Blog, attempting to follow a similar colour scheme to what I've used on my other pages, to hopefully keep tying everything in together. At this point I'm feeling like at least I have made a start, and have some ideas to continue developing.
