Today's randomly chosen theme is: HyperText Transfer Protocol

I know diddly-squat about how hyperlinks work, so I'll just talk about html in general. Which, I don't actually know html, per se? Or rather, I know bits and bobs that I picked up piecemeal from disliking rich text interfaces (they have a distressing tendency to glitch on me, and also I like to be able to see exactly what I'm telling the computer to display) and therefore having to do some hand-coding of fics and journal entries. Whenever I run into something unknown that I suddenly need to do in order to produce some effect or other, I google it and add another piecemeal snippet to my repertoire.

This has unintentionally become an actual job skill, since it lets me do some super-basic website maintenance (basically updating apartment listings) for the rental company, and also format our ads to display correctly on various other people's websites. Never let anyone tell you fandom isn't useful!

I can also kludge around other people's CSS code a bit, but I have no clue how to build any of my own from scratch. Someday I'm going to actually learn that in a systematic fashion. *resolve face*
