WIX.COM

At first I found Wix pretty interesting because it had a lot of funa dn easy options, It seemed easy to understand and interesting. It included alot of templates for different categories for example, Photography, Fashion, Profiles and etc...
This is the home screen of WIX. You click on LogIn/Sign Up and here you shall get started. Wix allows you tu share any type of media, from YouTube, Pictures, Animations etc. It is easy to follow on and start with because all you need are in categories, for example Page parts, Media, Clip art, Text Galleries and Widgets. And in tose heading are all the things you would need to edit you webpage. You are able to edit your background, your menu, buttons, text(if you want a scroll bar), the way you want your gallery set and previewed and widgets as in different types of activities you would want on your webpage. This would include music player, comments and etc. Another positive thing with Wix is that once your done editing and placing your images and videotogether you can lock it so you can avoid moving it by accident.

EVALUATION:
Versatility: Wix is very Versatile as it can contain a lot of media, for example Images, Videos, Music and other files. With each of these categories there may be different websites associated with it such as YouTube Videos. and that you can post a link on Images other than saving an image from google on to the computer and downloading it back to the internet. With Wix not only can you add those media but there are also other type of Media that you may not find on Protopage, such as Clip art and galleries. And also like Protopage you can add widgets such as notes, comments, Maps and so on.

Ease of Use:
Wix is "ok" when it comes to difficulty, there are some parts of it that are easy to understand, but some that are complicated and has a series of parts for you until you complete what you want to do. It is pretty easy once you get used to it as you can lock your objects when youre done with them so that you wont move them by accident.

Collaboration:
Me and my partner have collaborated in wix by working on different pages so that we wouldnt interfere with each others work. She would work on designing the website, while i did my research. When she has done fixing up the website, i then went on with fixing my part of the website.
