First post

Hi, we are a group of students from Newport Free Grammar School (NFGS) called 'Altair' we aim to produce a 2 minute opening to a thriller film.

Each of the different groups were named after stars, we were assigned to 'Altair'. As we were named after a star we have presented our blog with a starry background.

In class we have studied WEB 2.0 and that is the concept of 'do it yourself' internet, for example websites like Facebook, YouTube and online blogs. This allows us to share our work with the world in an instant. (Evidence of this is that over 40 people from Russia have viewed our blog and also many others from different countries such as the United States of America and South Korea.)

The internet has boomed in the last 15 years and it has changed the way people consume media.
