Rather than submitting a traditional essay, choose an author from one of the texts that we have read (through Week 5) and build a web project around him/her. You need:

Create a Facebook page at FB account: [email protected] Password:5544332211

Before you begin, spend some time thinking about the characteristics of each of these media; the advantages and disadvantages of each, audience, idiom, format. Why is the one that you have chosen a good match for the author?
