Originally I did not anticipate my website utilizing any type of audio, with the exception of that present in the videos. However, I now think that audio could be very valuable to my website, so it is important for me to understand how to use different audio files as well as bits and bytes.
Posting audio files on my website discussing current information could provide people with more options. Knowing how to convert Wav files to MP3 will let me save space and allow me more room for storage.
Understanding the storage type will be very important for my website because the more information it can contain the better. If I know that a certain number with a certain prefix then I know how much storage I can allocate to a particular thing.

Week 5 - Digital Video
I plan to post different types of video analysis on my fantasy sports site, so understanding digital video will be very important. Obviously I will have to decide on whether or not to use streaming video or progressive download. Both have their advantages and disadvantages, but I envision using progressive download more often. The reason for this is that live streaming appears much more difficult based on cost and it would make more sense to utilize progressive download from my position.
Digital video is extremely popular as seen by the amount of money that sites like Youtube have made in the past year. I feel that digital video will increase my websites popularity and make it more user-friendly. However, it is possible that I could end up using live streaming video at some point.
The digital videos on the website will almost exclusively consist of fantasy sports advice. The videos can serve as an alternative to just posting numbers and opinionated information. Eventually I might even be able to have some sort of weekly video segment with guests, but digital video will definitely be used on my website

Week 4 - Hardware
Understanding computer hardware will be essential to running my website successfully. For one, I will need to put together a PC which gives me freedom to run and operate my website without many constrictions. I will need to have a computer with good memory, as I will be storing a lot of information which I will need to look back on.
Introducing video to my website is something I will consider and most likely use. In order to do this I need good video and audio.
The DVD/Blue-Ray drive will be used extensively to look at footage from sporting events for the website.

Week 3 - Spreadsheet Essentials
Microsoft Excel and other similar spreadsheets can definitely play a big part in my fantasy sports website. Not only will it be helpful when organizing finances, but it will also be helpful when organizing sports data. My website will deal with a large amount of numbers and spreadsheets will provide for easier classification of these numbers, as well as looking at trends.
The functions will probably be the most important feature when incorporating spreadsheets into my website. For instance, I will be able to use the AVERAGE function for a player's numbers, such as average pass yards per game. The SUM and COUNT functions will also be used extensively on my website.
Aside from organizing finances and data and the use of functions, the formulas will also be very valuable. I will be able to enter my own formulas and this will allow for much less work when trying to group all of my data together or under a certain category. The graphs feature will allow me to look at trends and patterns.
