Hi, James,
Welcome to the class! Make sure you put in your name in the profile, so that your name will show up, other that your email address.

Professor,
I was hoping for a bit of advice. I'm not sure if there are any more students who need to sign up for a group, but it doesn't seem like it. So far I'm the only one who signed up for the group I'm currently in (TwiPic & TwitVid). Since the idea of this project seems to be collaborative in nature, I'm absolutely open to the idea of switching groups (I'm eyeing Meebo). Is this okay?

That is fine.

But if you prefer to have TwiPic & TwitVid, that is fine with me too.

Professor
I'm just curious, What kinds of formats are you looking for? How do you want us to present this presentation, like a blog post? Are we setting individual accounts or are we setting a group account? The same questions apply to the social media. Are we setting individual accounts or a group account?

This is a presentation in class. Your group is going to the front of the class to talk about the social media tool you signed up, its history, its pro and cons, its features, how to use it, and all the functionality. You may use PowerPoint, screencast, or videos (you have to make them, not download from YouTube), or just presenting. Of course, you have to have an account, so that you will show the class how to use it. But it does not matter whose account, as long as it shows all the functionality.
The social media tools project (not presentation), you are going to create an account for either our class or our grad school and you are going to be the administrator for that account. On our last class day, you are going to show us what you did for that account, why you set up your interface in that particular way.
I hope I answered all your questions. If not, ask me in class again. I am sure other students would like to hear it, too.
