GENERAL ANNOUNCEMENT: I got on Lloyd's case and he went and registered a text alias for the IP you guys have been using. So from now on, in addition to using the numbers, you can use "atdpcube.berkeley.edu" to access your class sites. So, for example, my FTP username is "kass", so the address would be http://atdpcube.berkeley.edu/~kass.

(the address isn't actually working now, but should start working around 3:00 AM tomorrow.)

You do NOT have to go back and change all your previous addresses. (i'm not that cruel.) But I highly recommend that you start using this address from here on out, ESPECIALLY for your personal website projects. A large number of you are doing topics that require using pictures or material that are the property of large, rich and fiercely overprotective corporations. By using the text address, it will be clear that your personal website projects are the product of an educational venture, so that you will not be sued for whatever you're using.

Of course, it is still important that you give credit where credit is due. :P So if you use a lot of material from specific sites, have a sources page, please.

This Friday marks the half-way point of the ATDP program! How time flies, eh? In celebration (groan), Trev and I will be doing a comprehensive midterm evaluation of all your guys' progress this weekend. So if you intended to catch up on all your work so far (write class logs and link them, validate, etc.), between now and Friday would be the time to do it.
