On Saturday, we had our lecture with Dr Atish Parashar, New Media teacher.We continued the class with the discussion on websites and  learned about the things to be kept in mind while making a website.

1) Consider a target audience . Find a common ground while choosing your audience.

2) One should be very precise about defining an objective.

    and Planning of launching process of website is divided into 3 production phases;

•        Pre reproduction
•        Production
•        Post production

3) Never compromise with content in web journalism.

4) Space is less therefore 

•     Use bullets or hyper links
•     Use narrative style
•     Precise writing is very important 
•     Use active voice and first and second person.

5) Learn chunk writing for web i.e write 2 to 3 line paragraphs having a single thought.This chunk writing is a reason for popularity of Wikipedia.

6) Web is a platform which supports all other form of media. 

As web is the platform for all media we first learned about the newspaper medium

• Hickey gadget was the first newspaper of India and was published by James Augutus Hickey on 29 Jan 1780 which is also celebrated as the journalism day.
•  Udant Martand ,a  Hindi newspaper was launched by Pandit Shridhar Shukla  on 30 may 1826.

 Some new words like web portal too was introduced.

WEB PORTAL- A website is static in nature but a web portal is more dynamic, has more navigation options, it can be extended and has unlimited space.Its actually a portal which posts mini pages.  

Media is not for generation ,its for construction. As a journalist we are suppose to investigate the stories and facts.
