Blog Report #1, Getting to Know You & Updates

Greetings all! I finished reading and commenting on all of your Blog Report #1 entries. I was happy to read about all of the different information communities that are part of your lives. I went to the grade book and gave everyone that submitted their URLs 2 points.

Please note: the rest of the Blog reports and your formal assignments should be academic in tone and utilize citations. Kudos to those who cited our early readings!
