February 1st, 2019
Over the course of this past week, I did not start researching yet. Instead, I had to first create the media platforms, that being the website and Twitter account. I am currently in the process of organizing the website and figuring out what I want the content and structure of my website to be. I intend to start researching and finding sources this weekend so I can start to build my website even more and put information on it. The Twitter I made is also connected to the website I made so that it can be visited easily, and when I posted the link to my website on Twitter, it got 2 visitors within 30 seconds. I realized I needed to build it first before I could put it anywhere, and also that Twitter will be very helpful in getting my website out there and putting a purpose in this project. Through starting to arrange my website, I finalized the three issues I am focusing on, which are human trafficking, world poverty, and mental health awareness. Hopefully, a lot of research will be done in the next couple of weeks on these topics so I can finally get the site up and running and start posting on Twitter.
