Hi Folks! Good meeting everyone in class today!
Your task for this week is as follows:
1. Create your own blog! You can use Blogger or WordPress – it’s up to you. Feel free to personalize your blog with pictures, media, news/media feeds etc. You’ll be spending some time on it so spend some time and play with it.
2. Introduce yourself! Who are you? What things interest you? What do you want to do with yourself after university? (note: you don’t have to provide your last name on your blog & please don’t put your student # on it).
3. Set up an account at Twitter and have a look at people’s status updates. You can also link your Twitter and Facebook (so when you do an update on twitter, it updates your facebook status as well) if you want (there’s an application for it). Decide if you want to keep your status updates as public, or if you want to approve people to follow you. I’ve created a new username for courses – it’s ‘proftracy’ – so search me and follow me 
4. Email me the URL of your new blog! I’ll be making student blogs available to all of us so we can read and comment on them. Also include your twitter username
5. Do the readings for this week and jump into the course!
See you next week!
