Welcome!

Hey everyone! 

So, we've gotten through the syllabus gig; now let's get to the fun part. For the duration of this course, I'd like for you to experiment a little with blogging. Some of you may be really comfortable with it and already have blogs of your own, and if you do, that's cool. If not, have no fear -- I am new to the blogging world myself. At very least, I'd like for this blog to be a place that you can go to find pertinent information quickly. I'll try to throw up dates and deadlines here as a reminder (but do remember that the STV 250 folder is always the best place to go). Some of your journal entries and reading responses will be posted here, and we'll talk about the sorts of conventions that will probably work the best for us. 

(Part of) Your assignment for the day: Please create your own blog via blogspot.com. Create a new one even if you already have one, because I'd like to keep this one separate and get everyone going with a fresh start. I'll be circulating to help with technical problems, but overall, I've found that this site is very user-friendly.
