ATTENTION: READING ASSIGNMENT
Check out this article on the Web 2.0 on the O'Reilly Network. The article discusses the substantive changes to the Internet over the last three or four years. What Tim O'Reilly describes here are the reasons this class has changed so dramatically from the first time I taught it. He touches on many of the issues we have discussed, plus much more.
And here's something to think about.... Unless you find you have a real interest, you probably won't end up in a job where web design is a primary job activity. However, it is quite likely that you will end up in a job where occassional, basic web production is done and where development of content for the web is common. Equally important though will be understanding what the web is really about, what it does culturally, what it does for its users/customers/audience, and where all this is going and why.
That's what this article is about.
