We're Still Learning!

                I know late last night, I was tweeting out that we had a mishap with the website which Mark will talk about on tomorrow's post but I wanna make it clear that we're still learning about coding and CSS code and any other type of coding that we have actually have put onto this website. It's a learning curve with this. Trust me it's always work in progress. However over the last year, we've learned a lot about coding and website building. Neither myself or our web admin went to school for any of this. We practically learned from YouTube and Google how to put together some of the pages that you see on the website. Also the menu bar was all built from scratch which we got the code from online but customized it to our liking which has been tweaked time and time again. I love to learn and our web admin isn't the only one that works on the site, I also work on the website so he's not the only one that works in the backside of the website that works on it. 


                Either way I love to learn about new things and it has been quite a learning curve but we appreciate the patience and honestly we don't think you guys noticed really and this happened to be us that noticed the changes within the website, actually it was me as I was going through pages in the backside of the website and I saw the Special's page and went onto ChrisBOnTheWeb.com and noticed there was no special. So I talked to Mark and he said sounds like the CSS issue but I'll let him explain tomorrow. However the point I wanna make is that we're learning and we have to make sure the site look really good and just be patient. The advice we can is report the issues to us via Social DM or thecbotwteam@gmail.com. Either way we continue to learn and grow and we appreciate the patience you have had with us.

I'm Learning, I'm Trying New Things Out!

               This year has been a great year, not just because I have become a successful podcaster but the fact I have tried new things lately and I am proud to say, it feels great to have tried new things. Yes I realize the blog posts haven't been consistent but I am truly trying to bring out the blogging content to you guys as much as I can. 


                I have learned so much about scheduling, keeping to a timetable with regards to the podcast side of things recently. I have either been a day behind or right on schedule. I know there will be a day where there will be 3 podcasts in a day due to the fact I will be out of town either Apr 5th or Apr 12th, 2018 out in the city of Toronto with my former Staff Dave. But other then that, I am very much on schedule with the podcasts. Now website wise, I have learned so much, when I tinker with the website the favorite icon at the top of the website disappears, goes to 000webhost logo or blank. So what I have learned is I have to remove the physical file from the site, re-uploading the icon once again and yes the icon is 100x100, then it works once again. I am not sure if it is a web builder issue or if it has to do with the size of the icon that is beyond me but I figured out a quick fix. Also this week I have been testing out the chat feature but obviously it has been removed as it wasn't getting many hits but thats OK with me, however, I learned through fixing glitches and bugs on the website like turning off the sound for the chat messages, figuring out the size within the code in the back end as well. 


                   Finally for today's blog I have finally learned to try new things out and as you guys know The CBOTW Show Podcast has popped out of nowhere recently as I made the announcement that it has joined the list of Podcasts on ChrisBOnTheWeb.com and I thought, you know its been nearly 2 years now since starting Everything About Reality TV, so I thought, I got the offer to RECAP Music City from CMT, why not. At first I said no thanks as I had enough on my plate but as of now, I am grateful to be doing it. I shouldn't be afraid to open up and try new things. I just said on Twitter, I am open to advertising on either my website or any of the 2 podcasts, I am running right now. I shouldn't be afraid to try new things and if it doesn't work out then thats fine, but if it does thats great. I am glad I am now open to trying new and innovative things!
