Hey guys, long time no type.
....Anyways.....My main topic of discussion today is the newest website I have created. It's for the Phi Kappa Theta fraternity here at USD. The website can be found here.
Now I realize there is not much content but that's what happens with a website when you just start out. But other than that, let me know what you think, what you think would work better or look better. Or just tell me what you think looks bad and should be changed. I appreciate all comments.
This isn't the first website I have built. I have built a couple more just like this one: The KORN and Q107 websites, the new ones that I have built aren't up yet, we are hoping to do that over Christmas break though. Then I have made a couple of free websites over the years, including the Our Perspective website, which I think is my best free website.
Now I like building websites. It's fun, it takes up some time, but it is fun to know you are accomplishing something that not everyone has the skill to do, and then putting it on the internet for the rest of the world to see. I think building a website is something that everyone can do and everyone should try at least once. Whether it be from one of the numerous free website builders out there or using iWeb on your new Mac, its becoming easier and easier to do it.
I also think that building a website to advertise things is a very good way to do it. Not only are so many more people looking for things like that online now, but it doesn't limit you to a certain area like a local ad would. Also, a website is up 24/7. Not like a commercial, that's only on a couple of times late at night. Not like a newspaper ad that is in a couple papers and then thrown away. The exact people that are looking for what you are trying to advertise, will stumble upon your website, even if it is 3am.
So all the way from my newest website to stumbling around the internet at 3am. Wow. Well I hope you enjoyed this little blog post. If you did, let me know. I am always available on facebook or at devvon@gmail.com. Make sure to check out the Phi Kap website to. Thanks!

My Specialty
Well, I decided its been a long time since I blogged....again....but more importantly, its been a long time since I've given my perspective on anything. Whether you are looking for it here on my blog or from the podcast, it hasn't been coming. I feel bad, I feel like I am not doing my job, and I apologize.
So I thought I would start off with something easy for me at least, how about video games. Yup, that's one of the things I know best especially since coming to college. I have recently picked up a lot of new, old, and interesting games. I am going to start off with Fallout 3.
Now I wasn't quite sure what to expect when I first got it, but as soon as I started playing, it seemed just like home. If you have ever played The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, this game will seem familiar to you as well. Ok, I'm not going to lie, the games are almost identical. Now some may ask if that is a good or a bad thing. To tell you the truth, I'm not sure. But for people that liked Oblivion, it can't be a completely bad thing.
There are a few differences between the games. Fallout is based on a post-apocalyptic present where you have to escape the vault and fight some crazy mutant beings. There is also a sort of combo thing you can do now. You regenerate attack points and can use them against the mutants. It is fairly entertaining. But I would say if you are in the market for a good, single player RPG, Fallout is the game you should check out.
I've also recently just picked up Dead Space. Now this game to me was pretty creepy. Now I haven't got into the game very far at all, but already, it seems almost predictable. Like you know where the monsters are going to come from next. But maybe thats just me. Also I thought that the controls were a little sluggish. Again, that could be me or my computer. But not a bad game to check out either.
Almost a month ago now I ordered an original NES of off eBay. It finally showed up with two controllers, the gun and Super Mario/Duck Hunt. I was so excited. I had also picked up Contra, Kirby's Adventure, Yoshi, and Kung Fu, so I didn't get bored right away. So there in the nostalgic corner, I have a couple more games now.
And last but not least, I picked up a couple of games for the PS2 that I have been wanting for a long time. Shadow of the Colossus and The Bully. Both very fun and entertaining games. I would recommend Shadow of the Colossus of The Bully though.
Well there is my little ramble for the day on my new and favorite video games. If you want to check out my newest website that I have built for my fraternity, Phi Kappa Theta, check it out here and let me know what you think. Also if you like my blog or if you don't, or you want to see us get Our Perspective going again, let me know, leave a comment or email me at devvon@gmail.com. Thanks for reading.
