Textbook Purchasing

I purchased the required texts, The Social Life of Information and New Media: A Critical Introduction, from Amazon.com. Since I have not had to purchase textboooks since 1997, I was pleasantly surprised to see that the books were not inordinately expensive. My wife and I have purchased several books through Amazon.com and BarnesandNoble.com, so this was a familiar experience. The only obstacle I encountered was that Amazon deactivated my account, and, therefore, I had to purchase the books using my wife's account.

There was no difficulty in creating the scrapbook containing the links in the course assignment using the Firefox extensions Linky and Scrapbook. I saved the scrapbook folder as an html file but was unable to transfer it to the website on ftp.sunyit.edu. I uploaded the file but was unable to identify or establish a link to it that I could include in this posting in order to satisfy the assignment requirement.

Scratch that last comment. With the help of my lovely assistant, I was able to upload the file and create a link.
