<!-- Think of the header tag as an introductory content or navigation links -->
<header>

<!-- footer tag hangs at the very bottom, mostly containing copyright information,
contact information, sitemap -->
<footer>

<!-- section tag is used when you want to separate content from other content
think of it as different story content holder 
For example, you might have 1 section tag that contains content about today's news
and you have a 2nd section tag containing content about tomorrow's news
In this case you would need to keep today's news away from tomorrow's news
you can achieve that by using the section tag
-->
<section>
