Welcome to C476, Semester 2, 2006

Ady — Sat, 22 Jul 2006 06:31:04 +0000

If you want to read how to use the WordPress system then head over to Edublogs Workshop and download the PDF to give you instructions.... For example, http://c475.edublogs.org/2006/07/22/welcome-to-semester-2-2006/ is the URL to a story on the C475 blog, so by adding this as a link, thus: Welcome to C475, you notify the blog entry's owner that you have referred to their story / article.

clean, crisp and very impressive design

Adrian Gould — Fri, 30 Sep 2005 01:28:41 +0000

I was reading some of my RSS feeds when I came across a couple of useful articles that look at design of particular sites. The interesting part is that the site itself has a wonderful clean, almost newspaper quality layout. The site is “subtraction”, and the articles I have so far enjoyed include: Free Form for [...]
