Reflection pageWhile doing this project I encountered very

little problems. But some of the problems where that my internet had all these pop up ads kept popping up talking about how to find your perfect match and body building techniques. But over all it was cool. The project wasn’t that hard its just the simple fact of sitting down and doing it.

Continuation of reflectionI knew that my sources were valid

because every website I went to had the same information and there was no way you could change anything. Technology is continuously changing to day and it will continue to as long as we have scientist.

The End thank you for listening

Good Bye
