Today you need to do a couple of things.

You need

• to give me your email address so that I can make you a contributor to the website.
• to go to the Dante Pforum (click or scroll down). Look into websites and post a comment on the blog. Post your questions and put up links you find interesting.
  
• to check out the Pouches Presentation Assignment and think about it for tomorrow.

Make these things happen in the first half of class today.
