Benefits of Dreamweaver

Dreamweaver is so much more helpful when creating a web site verses making your own html. Its quick, easy, and simple. In my personal experience I've done both used dreamweaver and made my own html and once Mr. Biddle showed us dreamweaver I fell instantly! I can't express how much better dreamweaver is than any other web site making softwares I've used.

Frames vs. Tables

I personally like tables better, though they might b a little harder to navigate through I think they are more organized than frames. I also think frames get confusing. Especially floating frames. And frames don't look good. So I would advise you to use tables to stay organized!!!

Steve Jobs' contribution

In 1976, Jobs, Steve Wozniak and Ronald Wayne founded Apple. Jobs lured John Sculley away from Pepsi-Cola to serve as Apple's CEO. "Do you want to sell sugar water for the rest of your life, or do you want to come with me and change the world?" At Apple's annual shareholders meeting in 1984, Jobs introduced the Macintosh to a wildly enthusiastic audience. The Macintosh became the first commercially successful small computer with a graphical user interface. The development of the Mac was started by Jef Raskin, and eventually taken over by Jobs. After leaving Apple, Jobs founded NeXT Computer in 1985 with $7 million. In 1996, Apple announced that it would buy NeXT for $429 million. The deal was finalized in late 1996, bringing Jobs back to the company he had co-founded. In August 2011, Jobs resigned as CEO of Apple, but remained at the company as chairman of the company's board. Hours after the announcement, Apple Inc. shares dropped 5% in after-hour trading.

Leonard Kleinrocks contribution to the Internet

Leonard Kleinrock has made an extreme contribution to the Internet in that he played a role in creating the ARPANET (the precursor to the Internet). Kleinrock was supervising when the first message was sent on the ARPANET by Charley Kline to Standford Research Institute. The first permanent ARPANET link was established on November 21, 1969. Kleinrock was the chairman of a group that presented the report toward a national research network to the U.S. congress. The report was extremely influential, and that influential idea gave us what we know today, The Internet!
