**What You Need to Build a Website** **1) Hosting:** Hosting is where you put your website and all the Web pages. While it's possible to build a website on your personal computer and never move it online, it's somewhat pointless. No one but you will ever be able to see it. So the first thing you'll want to do is find a Web hosting provider.  **2) Domain Name** The domain name creates the address of your site. So, mywebsite.com would be an example of a domain name. Looking for a FREE site? I never endorse free webhosts. They are too unstable, you never really own your site and you do not receive a true domain name. Instead your address will be something like http://freesite.yourdomain.com. In some cases, the domain may be even longer. A website cannot exist without a web host. This is the company that houses your files and provides the environment for you to create and save pages to the Internet. Web hosts are usually paid for monthly (some are yearly). **4) Plan Your Website:** Once you've gotten a domain and decided on your URL, you can start planning your site. You need to decide:  If you can recognize page types, you'll be able to recognize what types of pages you need for your site. Play the [|Web Page Types game].
 * 3) Web Host**
 * Type of site - Most websites are either news/information, product, or reference sites. As such they each have a slightly different focus.
 * [|Navigation] - The navigation affects the [|information architecture] of your site.
 * [|Content] - Content is the actual pages you'll be building.

Some web hosts provide website building tools so you do not need any additional software. It's important you find out about this before you sign up with any host. CoffeeCup & Dreamweaver are popular web editing software programs that people use to create and maintain their sites. I used Dreamweaver to create this site. If you don't use any software, then you will need to learn how to [|code HTML from scratch]. All you do is open a text editor (Notepad or BBEdit for example) and then write the HTML that will create your page. It's pretty easy to learn. Then you save the file as filename.html and save it to the Internet through your web host. If you're not interested in learning HTML, I'd strongly recommend downloading some of my [|free HTML templates] and buying a software program like CoffeeCup to edit and continue building your site. Nvu and Komposer are two free editors you can download. As you might expect, they do have some limitations (free is not always best) but they can get the job done. **5) Publish Your Website:** Publishing your website is a matter of getting the pages you created in step 4 up to the hosting provider you set up in step 1. You can do this with either the tools that come with your hosting service or with FTP clients. Knowing which you can use depends upon your hosting provider. Contact them if you are not sure.

Although the tags are all in Thai which clearly shows that restaurant aims at locals only, but a good Somtam restaurant should always stay local to keep its original taste. It is the foreigner's job to search for local restaurant.

code meta name = "keywords" content = "ร้านอาหาร, ร้านอาหารไทย, ร้านอาหารแนะนำ, ร้านอาหารในกรุงเทพ, ร้านอาหารอร่อย, ร้านอาหารอีสาน, ตำมั่ว, ส้มตำ, อาหารอีสาน, แนะนำร้านอาหาร, ร้านอร่อย, จัดเลี้ยง, จัดเลี้ยงนอกสถานที่, ลาดพร้าว" /  >

code

Their restaurant is the first website that comes up when searched in google the word "ส้มตำ" "somtam", although it is only in Thai; but for the local market it is very good. The web is easy to navigate and shows the menu as well.

When typed in to google "ตำมั่ว", the first thing that comes up is this website and so far from searching in google, this is the only somtam restaurant with an official website. Since using website in Thailand to advertise is not widely used yet, maybe for a 5 star restaurant it will be ok to have a website but not for a somtam restaurant and mostly advertising is through forums where people write down a blog to recommend their like of restaurant. Therefore I think if this restaurant want to establish a reputation in the Thai market, it has to be through referral

__Egypt__ Can we say that Twitter, Facebook and Youtube started these protests, definitely not. But did they speed the process of protest up? For sure they did.It is certain that a 21st century media device cannot start a nationwide protest bringing its people to take risks harm, or death but it does not mean that they not play a role. Given the amount of hatred in each country, a revolt will have to come eventually, the media just helps it come faster. The media did so in playing 3 major roles,
 * 1. What did the Social Media do for the ongoing unrest in the Arabic world, Egypt and Libya**
 * Organizing Protest** - Media tools have already help protesters to spread the words on a mass gathering even before Egypt decides to block Facebook or Twitter. Without these tool, the amount of people to the protest would not have been as much.
 * Shaping the narrative -** But word started getting out via Twitter that hastily arranged neighborhood watch groups were apprehending looters who, it turned out, had police IDs on them. This might or might not have been true--it wasn’t possible to confirm the statements--but it certainly shed a different light on the looting.
 * Putting pressure on Washington -** Washington presumably found itself between a rock and a hard place last week. The U.S. prefers to fall on the side of freedom and self-determination whenever possible. But Egypt is one of this country’s closest allies in the Middle East. And there certainly must be concern about a domino effect leading to even more instability in the region, should Egyptian president Hosni Mubarak fall.

__Libya__ The Libyan state-owned television channel, was broadcasting nonstop patriotic songs, poetry recitations and rowdy rallies supporting the Libyan leader, Col. Muamma el-Qaddifi. The contrast highlighted a fierce battle between Colonel Qaddafi’s supporters, who were using the state-run news media, and Libyan protesters, who were turning to social media and the foreign news media, to win over hearts and minds. Government channels have run a written appeal: “For the dear brothers whose hobby is photography and video taping, please put up videos online that show the massive support for our beloved leader.” In Colonel Qaddafi’s all-out media counteroffensive, a sports channel and a music channel that are popular among the young have instead been showing 24-hour programs of poetry reciters eulogizing his achievements and films of pro-government rallies waving his pictures; while banning people within the country to use any other media device, this is the way that Libya uses its media to brainwash people.

Using the media in this century to promote tourism is almost an important type of marketing in almost every country, some do better others not so much. Las Vegas's "What ever happens in Vegas Stays in Vegas" was a big hit and apparently did a great hit. While Australia's "Where the bloody hell are you" didn't do so well. One of the important aspect that promoters need to consider is
 * 2.What did Social Media do to tourism industry, showcase example**
 * Creating Valuable Information Platform** - basically this mean having a place where people can turn to for information when they plan a vacation. Visit Japan 2010 has a Facebook page that aggregates all the travel info and links you’ll ever need! The layout is clean and information is organized. It’s the first place (not Google!) I would go to when planning for a Japan trip. Get updates through the page, ask questions and share your experiences with others. Who would you trust more, the tips and views of a fellow tourist or the tourism board?
 * Promoting Social Media Presence** - Las Vegas tourism board has dedicated a significant amount of space on its official site to direct traffic to its social media accounts. It is crucial to engage potential tourists outside of a website. People are spending hours on Facebook everyday, but maybe 15 minutes on websites, and only when they need them. Social sites are a great opportunity to let organizations become a part of consumers’ daily life.
 * Checking Tourists in Four Square** - This is to help boost awareness of both the popular and less well known tourist attractions. eg. Chicago
 * Mobile Applications** - With more and more smart phones being used, it is a good opportunity for tourism boards to start thinking of how they can value add people on the go. Some cities already has an interactive tourist guide with intergrated street navigation like Vancouver.

Web 2.0 plays an important role in my life because since moving to Switzerland, with different languages that I do not understand. I stopped watching the TV for news, instead, I spend 20 minutes a day on CNN, BBC and Sanook, a Thai local news media to get me information. I have basically stopped going to the library to research because it takes up too much time and its not specific enough. Almost everything we see in a book can now be found as PDF online and even highlight specific words that I want. Almost anything that I want to do from finding recipes to searching for ideal locations for vacations i search it online. It has certainly made me lazy, but it is the most convenient part of my life now.
 * 3. How active are you in web 2.0, what role does it play in your life**

Reckless the Book

1. Why does this book have a website? This book has a website due to its main target audience are from 9 - 12 years old, therefore in 21st century, kids these age might still read books of their choice but only uses the internet or referral to search for information. Therefore, by advertising on the internet, it helps create awareness to this specific target market and creating it interesting will allow this target market to continue marketing it to their friends.

Why are the movies / intervies in Youtube and not on the website itself. Because it is the publisher channel website therefore Reckless is just the landing page and then it will further advertise if people are interested and therefore will be re-directed to the main publisher's site.
