It was reallly long!.they should have removed one of the 8 mark question, or make it shorter.

And even more beautiful is, knowing that you are the reason behind it.

I toally agree with you guys here the paper was so dang long and furthermore, I realize it was longer than the other papers. I missed out 2 questions though, CTI and the web-design question. The practical was great for. I wonder what the grading scheme will be like this year...It was low for the previous years. I have a post on that you guys can check it out!

for the advantages i rote:
its cheaper to advertise on other websites since no web desingers will be required
it cud be in a form of a popup so it will grab the users attention
more number of ppl are able to view the advertisements
if the wedsite is in the online directory thn the advertisement itself on tht website is trusted n ppl get interested in it



disadvantages:
if ppl have popup blockers they not be able to view the advertisements
sumthing abt viruses(dont rlly remember)
it may be expensive to post an advertisements on the rlly famous or used websites
(i dont remember the rest)




wat did u ryt abt the personality of tht lady inorder to allow for teleworking??
and the advantage of flyers??

pretty much wrote the same thing as you...
for the lady question i wrote:
well motivated..
doesnt get easily get distracted...
honest and loyal...
will produce the same quality of work as she used to do in the main office...
  this question has nothing to do with IT but wt the hell  :P

and for the flyers:
cheaper to produce...
since the company wants to advertisde locally.. the flyers well target this area..if it was a website then the whole world could see it..
faster to spread between local people (though not sure)
i had one other point .. cnt really remember it :P
