HW3 Part 2 - Bookmarks

For the second part of HW3 we had to select two links we found interesting from our social bookmarks list and add them to what is basically our favorite bookmarks. The two that i choose were Google Finance and Aaron Karo's Ruminations. Google Finance is a great site for School of Management students because it is an efficient way to keep up with the stock market and other aspects of the business world. I also choose Aaron Karo's Ruminations because it is probably one of the most interesting and funny things i have ever read in my life. Aaron Karo just writes about randoms things in his life or about life in general that he finds peculiar. You can visit these sites from the links below...

Oh yea...Check out some graphics ive created for my music group (click the graphic below)

So for Homework 3, post #1, we have to choose a license from www.creativecommons.org that gives us some protection and disgression over what material people can use and recycle from our blogs. I choose "Attribution-NoDerivs 2.5" which enables people to freely copy, distribute, display, and perform my work commerically or non-commercially as long as i am given full credit for the material.

I choose this license because if i ever post something of substance - and someone wants to use it - i would like credit for it. My full license can be viewed at http://creativcommons.org/licenses/by-nd/2.5

My Fist Blog/Post

My name is Rahul Amin and I'm creating this blog for my computer science class (CS103) at Boston University. I've never done anything like this interms of having a journal online, but i do have a lot of experience with web page and graphic design. I made my first website in the 4th grade and learned how to edit html back then. Throughout high school i ran my own web page design bussiness and was interviewed in the detroit free press, which is a pretty big news paper in michigan. I like to think that im decent in Macromedia (I guess now Adobe) Dreamweaver, Flash, Fireworks, and Adobe Photoshop. So I guess this is all for now.
