northeast island!
I put the Northeast Island class website up today at dave2n.com/island. It's basically a themed layout and system that we'll be following during the fourth quarter. Once some students get parental permission, they will be able to showcase their work on the Northeast Island website. I know you're not supposed to do work over spring break, but this was fun and didn't take up too much time.
Looks like I'm going to have to follow that "switch" ad campaign and get a Mac for Portfolio Center. I went to the store a couple of days ago and will probably end up getting a 12-inch Powerbook down the road. I gotta admit, they're pretty shweet with a DVD burner and wireless internet capability. Sarah has been spending her spring break addicted to Animal Crossing; she's asking for a Gamecube for her birthday. I've been playing Eternal Darkness, which is giving me non-dinosaur (for once) nightmares. If you don't keep your "sanity meter" full, your character goes insane during the game and strange things happen like the walls start to bleed, your limbs start falling off or bugs crawl along the screen. The cooler effects trick the player, pretending to reset the game, delete all your saved files, tell you that your controller isn't plugged in properly or make it look like someone pressed the mute button on your TV. The game was released a while back and was critically acclaimed, but since it's on the kid-targeted Nintendo Gamecube, it never sold that well. I got it for half-price at a pawn store.
