Attendance Question: Week 1 What was the first significant thing you created that exists/existed on the internet? (Blog, Website, Youtube video, etc.) Why did you create it and how old were you when you did so? Can this artifact still be found today? (Don’t worry, I won’t ask to see it) If it is no longer online, why was it removed? Post your question to Edmodo under “Lecture Attendance Question Week 1” Your answer should be approximately one paragraph in length.
