Weebly seems like a great way to get a professional looking website. As an undergraduate, I actually made my own website using DreamWeaver. It was actually pretty fun once I got the hang of it, but the learning curve was a tad frustrating. Linking was definitely the most obnoxious part. Anyway, my professor insisted that I use software like DreamWeaver and not a tool like Weebly (a great learning experience, but a LOT more work for similar results).
Overall, a great example of the power of word-of-mouth. I am drawn to the layout and freshness of the sites, and I probably would have chosen this tool for my literacy project. However, in class, several people mentioned its drawbacks, especially copying and pasting from Word. So...I think I'll avoid it!
However, I am loving the idea of the ePortfolio and I am seriously considering creating one for my career. I love the way this one is set up. It's also a great way to set up a WebQuest, like this wonderful example.
I don't know...on second thought, after seeing all those cool examples, I sort of DO want to explore and create one for my project! I'm just apprehensive about potential frustrations. What is your experience with Weebly? I am sure it is user-friendly and easy, but I'm worried about formatting annoyances. Have you had any of those? Help me make my decision!! Thanks in advance :)
Ciao!
