First off, let me introduce you to the winners of Jacque's challenge! CONGRATS. We will be contacting you shortly with your prizes.

Have you heard about microblogging?

Here's an excerpt from Cathy's post: "Both Twitter and Facebook ask you the same question: What are you doing? In turn, you answer, and document a bit about you and your daily life. This class is going to encourage you to use either (or both) to improve your life observation skills. Then, you'll take that authentic content and create cool little digital pages in Photoshop Elements (or Photoshop). In the process, you'll learn how to work with templates, make good type choices and creatively pair photos you love with your words."

So get your hodge podge on and create a layout where you incorporate journaling from a microblogging site like Facebook or Twitter. You have until Sunday, April 5th to submit a layout in the comments section below.
