For this week's assignment we were introduced into the world of JQuery to help add features to our blogs. With a few lines of code we were able to change the background of our blogs so that the color green fades in during a 10 second duration after the page has loaded.
Other features available using JQuery are the ability to drop and drag certain areas of the page. By doing this you can re-arrange the look of the page and order certain blog posts appear. I particularly like JQuery's ability to be able to return the blog to its original settings just by hitting the refresh button on the page.
Some of the ideas discussed amongst other students in this weeks discussion forum related to using JQuery to make a game or puzzle and add it to the blog page. This is particularly useful if you want to add something different to your blog. Maybe one of the features of your blog could be that every picture within the text could start out as a puzzle and as you go through and read the text, it breaks up the reading a little bit so you get to form the picture that is intended for viewing within the page.
These are just a few of the ideas that could be applied to our own blogs using JQuery.
