First Reflection Paper

We had a discussion on the plans we made to create web pages on the title "About Me". It was interesting as well as meaningful. Through this discussion I came to know the different ways of creating a web page like creating web pages using tables and forms. While creating a web page I came to know that we have to make our web pages consistent, the color combination should be good and it should be interactive with the users. Most importantly while creating a web page we must know our audiences.

We also had a discussion on the difference between HTML version 4.01 and HTML version 5.
