Mission accomplished!

Wow! What a relief ! my mission of creating an e-portfolio finally comes to an end. This is my ultimate and I must say, my well done - from my own point of view, of course -portfolio. Finally it’s googlepages for me, after my twice fail attempts creating e-portfolios using the freeweb and Weebly. I must say each one of these web has its own strengths and weaknesses. Meaning they are good in their own way. But I guess I opt for googlepages because it’s faster and user friendly.
Perhaps one might say that my e-portfolio is not that good, but I must admit that I’m proud of myself ( and thanks to Dr. Edwin who assigned me to do this as an assignment) because I managed to create and have something in the cyber space for the world to view…and it’s totally mine and I did it on my own. Frankly, I love my site and I intend to modify and always update it from time to time as my personal professional development.

What a headache!


I have finished creating my e-portfolio last week but I got this big problem-my web site address was very long. Oh dear ! it seemed to be the longest address I’ve ever seen-even longer than the previous freeweb address. My address was http://jamilahmanan.googglepages.com/jamilahabulmananeprofessionaldevelopmente-portfolio

This really gave me a headache. I thought I had tried everything to shorten the address, but it just didn’t work. How could I give my lecturer and friends this address of mine… for sure they would laugh at me. Oh no. I thought I would have to create a new web site and wasted my precious hours on it, which actually should be used for preparation for my final examination and my comprehensive exam. I tried asking my friends but nobody seemed to know what to do..apparently they didn’t encounter such problem. Luckily for me, at last , today one of my friends, Dahlia ‘came to rescue’ me, we eventually sat down and tried few things on the site setting and finally the miracle happened. Ahhh…. Thank god! At last I got this short address I’d longed for..
http://jamilahmanan.googglepages.com/ . Only the almighty god knows how happy I am.Thanks dahlia, even though she is not an IT expert, just as novice as I am, she managed to click the correct button. I guess I got to treat her for lunch tomorrow.
