Computers 2 Do Now:
On your own blog:
Create a new post detailing what you did this past weekend. Include a picture, video, etc to enhance.

3 Blog Posting: Find 3 different blogs from this class or my other 2 classes of people you DO NOT regularly speak to. Read their intro posts or another posts and comment on them about how you might have the same interests, just to introduce yourself, or that you like their blog layout. Positive posts only.

Once you are done, add a comment to this posting with:
