Democracy, Governance, and the Digital Network

On Tuesday we will be looking at two examples of using blogs to tell text based stories. First look at FIRSTWORLD and read the first five entries (i.e. read up to and including 12/08/08). You should also read the very brief “What is a Wovel.” Next take a look at Plan B, read the first five entries and the last. Also read “What is Plan B” and “The Plan B FAQ”.

As a reminder your 800-900 word write-up of your groups Patchwork Girl remediation is due on Thursday. If you were not in class on Thursday it is your responsibility to find a group and get notes from the guidelines for the project as discussed in class.

Also FYI Off-Campus Books is returning their remaining supply so if you have yet to buy the books for this class or any of your other classes now might be a good time to do so, before you go there and the books are gone.
