In a way, it's harder than even the C++ programming language because you've gotta fit it in the web page with HTML and CSS stuck in there. I gotta tell ya, I'm not very good at making a decently laid out web page using all three languages (Javascript, CSS, and HTML). Others look at my code and go :blink: They may work, but they're impossible to understand unless you're the one who made them. I guess it's because I don't use comments.

I just finished "Unwind" by Neil Shusterman. Its about a future time where an unproductive teenager could be unwound, or his/her body parts be used for other productive people.

Interesting...I took Web Design during my senior year of High school, although we only learned HTML and CSS.

I was actually reading parts of Webster's Ninth New Collegiate Dictionary by A. Merriam-Webster last night before going to bed. What a coincidence!

The Chocolate Chip Cookie Murder. I currently forgot the name of the author, but she's done almost 8 books in this series so far. It's a murder/mystery/comedy with recipes throughout the novel! I got the stuff to make cookies from one of the recipes!
