Welcome to my Web site!
Hello my name is Adam, I go to Rancho high
school. This is my website/history day project of the Pony Express. While
starting this website was not easy at first but once I got the hang of
what to do, the making of the website started to become easier everyday I
had worked on it.
In the beginning, I was not sure on what I was going to do my history day
project on. After like around a week I decided to do my history project on
the pony express. I chose this subject for two reason, one it did relate to
the topic, communication in history: The key to understanding, and second of
all was that I knew I would be interested in learning more and more about
the pony express than what I already understood. On this subject I also
chose to do a website, a reason for why I chose to do a website is that I
know a lot about computer and somewhat of making a website. I thought also
this would be a great opportunity to learn to make a better website. Now it
was time to start looking up information about my subject. First, I started
to look in the library it was a simple step just to get further little by
little. Look up book on about the pony express was somewhat easy. I had to
go to a computer in the library type in what was looking for, than it would
show me a number and than I went to go look for it. The only really
difficult part in all of this was actually just the reading part. For me I
am fine with the reading but it was also time consuming. So from the book I
had I wrote done all the info that I would do to help me do this website.
Ok, so I thought looking into the Internet for information. Soon I started
to look in so many different places until I found a source that would help
me the most. So I went was goggle, a place where you can almost about find
any information on whatever your topic may be you would be able to find it
in just a click. Soon I was finding so much information that I would need
and much more. Looking through the Internet was a real simple because soon I
found a certain site that was just all about history stuff. All you had to
do was type in your subject and they would find like top ten websites of
your topic. After I took notes on all my information such as book and
website I got from. I start to put them in annotated bibliography forms.
Soon it was time for me to start the website. After getting all prepared to
start I began the website. First I designed how or what I wanted it to look
like. Than I make the links. After all links designing was done I begun to
add all my information. Pony Express relates to communication in history by
riders who need to deliver stuff to other people. Riders soon to die, soon
it began a new generation of the pony express. Come to this day there is
such a thing called the pony express!
