PIMP YOUR BLOG : October 16

I will be assessing your blog projects for the mid-term on OCTOBER 16.
This is your deadline to clean-up anything and to include content you have yet to add or design changes you want to make.

I will be checking for the following items:

- you have signifiicantly changed the design of your blog template and customized your blog as it applies, such as changing colors and fonts or adding extra content like contacts, groups, comments, etc
- you have created a full profile with name, your photo, and project or personal info
- you have created links to relevant websites on your blog (side bar is not set to default)
- you have added images to audio posts or audio to image posts, as relevant, or notes to photos in the case of Flickr (photos should be of the actual events and people, not stock images from the web)
- you have created specific descriptions for your entries that give additional and interesting information about the post... if you are having other people contribute to the blog, then we need to know something more about them, your relationship to them (did you find a stranger on the street, and what made you stop to talk to him/her, etc)
- if you are asking other people to create content for your blog, you have made an effort to solicit a wide range of people, not just your friends
- you have made an active campaign to get the word out and encourage people to comment on your blog
