This page is the index of my portfolio. More and more stuff will be added as time goes on. Items are listed in chronological order, or at least kinda close to it. Many of these pages are ripped directly from the Rapid Prototyping class web page, and therefore the credit for the HTML goes to Professor Finger. I'd merely link them, but I want to be able to keep a copy of all this stuff for later.

Making Presentations
Lots of little details in making a presentation I had never anticiapted. It makes me appreciate those who give good presentations a little more.
Taping Presentations
Taping presentations should never be allowed. Watching yourself on the TV while presenting is bad!! But it does help improve presentation technique.
