Pictures

I need pictures! Please send them as soon as you can. I will ask that you do some editing before you send them. Always make a copy to work on and size. Keep the size down to 480px wide. This will make it easier to send via email. Keep your originals. If you don't you will sometime in the future be pissed that you didn't.

If you don't have the software to do this Chris Parkinson has it on his laptop. I think Professor Schwalbe does too.

Audio needs to get done as soon as you can.

Movie uploads talk to Chris Parkinson.

I am trying to set up a spot for you to upload materials to the cronkite server, but the earliest that will happen would be Tuesday. If I can swing it I'll let you know what to do.

Good luck and have fun

Hi Everyone!

This is just a test! Making sure I am officially a member of our blog. Hope everyone's packing is going well. Don't forget to leave plenty of time to check in considering it's an international flight AND Memorial Day weekend. See you all tomorrow!

Logistics

I was wondering has anyone thought about how they are going to deal with such things as language? And I'm not just talking Paris here. Have you ever spoken to someone from Ireland? I know it's English, but sometimes I'm not sure what they are saying and that's just my relatives. How are you planning to find credible subjects to interview? Do you have a plan as to how you are going to get you stories done considering the demands of your schedule? What are your thoughts about the subject "American's Image etc.." ?

Your web master wants to know.

Free headsets and food on British Airways

Only 11 days to go! Are you getting excited? I am!

I just called British Airways. You don't have to pay for the headsets, and you'll be fed (unlike most of the U.S. airlines). Bring just one piece of checked luggage weighing up to 44 pounds because of the Aer Lingus restrictions. You're entitled to one carry-on weighing up to 13 pounds (plus a purse for the ladies; sorry, guys).

Remember that I'll be attending a workshop in Berkeley next week and will have only limited email access. If you have any questions or concerns, please let me know ASAP.

Start blogging about your trip preparations. You can respond to a posting, but if you want to talk about something different, please start a new posting. Remember that one of the course requirements is to blog at least twice in each country. Blogging about our trip preparations will give you practice.

This will be fun!

Cheers,
Carol
