CelebOrigins is a prospective website that would be a concise, interesting, informative, and at times comical stumble upon for any Internet user. It will showcase clips, images, and information about celebrities first big break and answer many people's question, how did that person get famous? Maybe it's Ashton Kutcher's first movie or commercial, or maybe it's Jack Johnson's first coffee shop performance. Regardless, everyday users will be intrigued to see how it all started for these celebrities and aspiring entertainers may even find the information useful. But above all, it introduces the common person to a side of show business they may have otherwise never known.
Throughout the blogging process, CelebOrigins has grown from a simple idea to a fully thought out web endeavor. It's common to think of a good idea and stop there. The blogging process forced me to consider every technical aspect involved in the creation of this specific website. Writing specifically on social media caused me to realize how vital social media would be to the success of the website. In terms of websites, it is the best for of advertisement. This all lead to the addition of a subscribing process to the site.
Blogging on user protection and malware forced me to consider how the site is used. I realized that the best way to keep users safe is to keep personal information out, and require no downloads. The site began shaping into the clean, safe, and user friendly site that I envision now. Any user should be able to stumble on this site and begin browsing. Every blog helped push the idea forward, competitive analysis cleared up what to emphasize, PhotoShop rose the issue of fake material, and collectively the blogs have created a comprehensive, technical, web idea.
The question is how could it actually happen? First we would have to develop an architecture for the information of the website and then we would sketch a mock up of the site. After viewing the mock up we could begin to code the layout for the different pages of the site. Simultaneously, a research group will be digging up the videos and information of celebrities. It would start small but would grow as more information is gained. We would begin with dummy content but would replace this information once research spills in. We will need to build a database for the back end of the site including all the information of each celebrity. The information gained would go in it's appropriate record and attribute and be linked with the certain webpage to be yielded.
The starting up of the website would be a process but it is entirely doable. This is partially why I chose a topic of this sort because I know that I could have the resources to start it. The building of the site itself would only take 2-3 people but the gathering of information could take 10 or more. Who knows, perhaps we will be seeing this website live sometime before I graduate...
