CLASS FIVE - Program Notes

Kevin, how important would you say it is to build some type of interactive features on a web site?

Interactive content can make your site more interesting because your visitors can ask question, get feedback, participate in a community environment, and use your site as a resource.

Let's look at the type of interactive features that can be incorporated into a web site.User built content, i.e. rate this article Polls, Quizzes, Games, Contests, Discussion groups, Live chats, and Downloads.

Hsx.com - Hollywood Stock Exchange - buy and sell movie stocks and starbonds. Espn.com - Sports news site with lots of interactive features. Were-here.com - A Flash developer community. Forums and tutorials. Webmonkey.com - A web designer and developer community. Tutorials galore. Freepolls.com - Add a poll to your site for free.

Kevin, let's look in depth at a web site that built in a lot of interactivity so we can see how this all works out in practice.
