What I Did

1) I spent today’s class creating the content for my project. This is the bulk of my project and consists of fake tweets, memes, and GIFs. I also tried to find the exact date that USA Hockey hired Herb Brooks, but alas, I came up short in that endeavor.

Why I Did It

1) Obviously creating this content is going to be the bulk of this project. I created tweets using the Fake Twitter Generator tool and memes using imgflip.com. One problem I am running into is getting the memes and GIFs onto the fake twitter generator. I will look into other twitter generators to see if they support this. If not, I can easily just make a real Twitter account and use that.

2) I also organized how I’m saving my tweets, memes, and GIFs based on the order they appear. They are saved in a folder in my computer titled “Fake Tweets” and each one begins with a number to correspond to their place in the project. For example, the first tweet is titled “1_Herb Brooks Hired.jpeg” so that I will easily be able to build my project once I get all the content created.
