Tuesday's Site of the Week: Storycorps

Storycorps is a unique project. People travel the country in an Airstream trailer, stopping in towns to record the stories that local residents feel like telling. The stories are all archived at the Congressional Library and the most interesting stories are featured on their web site. Storycorps actually came through Fort Wayne last summer, setting up shop for a week.

For today's class, update your blogs. Your reading logs will probably be one priority--fill us in on what you've been reading. Also, add up the total pages you have read since (a) last Tuesday, and (b) this entire semester. To make it easier for me, at the end of a post today, list these totals like this:

Current:
Total:

Another alternative would be to create a gadget that shows your current reading totals on the right side of your page.

After updating your reading log, or instead of it, visit Storycorps. Listen to 3, 5, 10 stories, whatever, and make a post about what you think of what you heard.
