Pimp'N & primp'N Lecture and Assignment for next week

Hey guys,

Hope you picked up some tips on prepping yourself for the real world. attached is the lecture deck. Below is the homework assignment due next week. It's pretty simple.

Homework:

Go online and find 2 examples of personal portfolio sites. These could be a typical portfolio site or maybe it contains a blog or videos or something interesting and unique. Once you find your 2 examples, create a blog and write 2 paragraphs about each example detailing why you picked them, what's good about the site, etc.

For creating a blog, you can use one of the below links. Creating a blog is very straight forward. Just follow the directions on whichever one you pick. Don't forget to include a picture, screenshot, video or some other graphical device for each posting. The final deliverable back to me and Erin is a link to your newly created blog. We'll probably critique a handful of them next class.

This is due 4.12.12 - NEXT WEEK.
