big changes today.
today the whole thing took a turn.
i started out today thinking about costs: how much will different things cost?
but, as per normal, my focus was led elsewhere. when i was researching costs for web design, the idea of domain names came up. and the cost of a domain name...
which led me to think about the availability of my desired domain names. so i started searching those out here.
this quickly dissolved into an exploration of some of the sites and a subsequent search in google for "movie tours". when i found a page that revealed that, as some people had speculated, there really isn't enough of a market to sustain the website as i had envisioned it.
so the idea has changed.
that was the first big change.
and then i talked to an old friend from high school who i haven't talked to since, well, high school. i talked to him online.
he's a web designer.
and he has now started the process of clueing me into what exactly it is a web designer, a web programmer and so forth do. he also told me where complications could arise in my idea. none of which seriously dissuaded me into thinking that it isn't possible.
the fundamental idea of the site is almost the same, it's just the market focus has changed. the thing now is to plan the website more extensively as per my friend's advice and, more importantly, continue talking to him because he has started my edumacation. i still have a lot of space to fill in this head of mine for things web-related.
