What made you interested in this topic?
I am interested in learning html so that I have a better understanding of how the web works. Having used the web for the better part of my life I see it as time to move on from being a passive user of the internet to an active participant in building it.
What do you hope to achieve by participating?
As of recently I have been reading about html and css online. This has been helpful but I think it would be fun and helpful to be a part of a community of learners. Building websites for myself, the organizations I volunteer with and others is ultimate goal.
Are you interested in helping with study group organization?
No. This will be my first course at P2PU so I would like to see how it goes.

Hi there,
I decided to sign up to this topic because I'm looking to expand my knowledge of computers, specifically programming and website creation. I'm doing this because I can see that knowing this stuff will make me more employable in the future, and whilst I think I'm quite good with computers I realise there is still so much that I don't know.
Unfortunately I don't think there is anything I can contribute to this group, so I'm just here to learn!

Standard Set Answer:
What made you interested in this topic?
I majored in computer technology in college, studying everything from web design, to PC repair, to network management. After college I started my own business utilizing nearly all of the I.T. skills I had learned in college but the web design aspect of my education was not put to task as much as I would have preferred. In the few times I was hired to create different web sites I had always found them to be tremendouly rewarding experiences.
What do you hope to achieve by participating?
I am hoping to add to my formal knowledge of HTML 4 and to my rather unstructured knowledge of HTML5 and cascading style sheets (css).
Are you interested in helping with the study group organization?
Yes, I am interested in participating in the study group organization.
