Curation: Blog 3

Throughout the week I haven't spent a lot of time adding things to my website because it already has a lot of information and I am still able to add things over time. I added a few more nail polish colors and designs because I find more and more every time I look.
Out of all the new information I have found I don't think there is one specific link or element that was most interesting because all of it is interesting. The new designs and styles I find are interesting though. It takes a little while to find things but in the end I always come up with something good to add to the website.
The biggest obstacle I need to overcome is always the same, which is finding more and information and designs to add to the website. It's always hard to find a lot of information all at once and it can be difficult at times to find a good place to put each new piece of information I have found.
The next three steps are simple. It's look for more information, look for more info, and look for more info. The more information I find, the more I can add to my website. And the more I add to my website the better my website can become.
Curating a website isn't the easiest thing in the world because it takes a lot of time and effort. You can't finish a website because there can always be more things to add to it. I feel that I am lacking some information and more style tips. There is a lot more to nails than people would think. After finding information on it I was surprised myself at how much info there is on nails and designs and styles.
To make the project run more smoothly I would have to say that I would be able to work on it more without and distractions such as other school work. Creating a website isn't easy when there are others things to deal with.

Curation: Blog 2

Throughout this week I have made a few adjustments to my curation project. I found a lot of information about nails and the different types of designs used on nails. I do my nails all the time but I never do any crazy designs like some of the ones I found. The biggest obstacle I had to overcome this week was finding a lot of information about designs and all the different brands of nail polish. There are a lot of brands for mail polish out there. It was pretty difficult to find good places for all of the information. Getting information can be easy but putting it all together in a way that works well. The next three steps will take a lot of time to work on. I need to gather more info about designs and put them on the website in a good organized way. Another thing I need to do is add more pictures to show people how many interesting designs there are. A third step would be to add more detailed information about the manicure and pedicure processes. But overall I need more information to make more progress on my project. The website is working fine and google sites are easy to use. Overtime things will get both easier and more difficult but theres a reason why this project is an infinite game!
