WordPress, the open-source content management system or CMS, is what I built my website on. Using Pantheon, a website management platform, I was able to create and host a WordPress website for free using a provided domain. Ironically, it was first a blogging website and still is a popular one. I will insert a picture of what the cover of my website looks after this paragraph. Now, OneAll, the social networking API, allows users to login to my website using various social media, whether that is Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Google Plus, the list goes on. After initializing the social media with my account, a process i'm not going to bother you with, I would be able to take a look at information that that user has when signing in under that social media. For example, under google plus, I could be able to gain access to your exact location, while in Twitter, I can really only gain access to your email. Wouldn't you feel safer if you logged in under your Twitter account instead of your Google Plus? Now, of course, when logging in, it will tell you what the website devs and admins will gain access to. Just make sure to actually read it. Don't worry, it's not as long as the terms and conditions where you just hit accept. So this is just one example of what my research this week has given me. There are many other plug-ins that I plan to research in the future that are much more in-depth, but here is the first one.
I also figure you viewers want to know what my work looks like. Since I work from home, I guess I will have to take a picture of my desk to show you where I am whenever I am working. Here it is:
I hope you have an idea of where I spend half of my day now.
Anyways, I hope you enjoyed reading about my second week, also the first week where I really got to dive into my work. Have a nice weekend!
