Part of your homework for this week is to get lost online. Spend some time wandering around, following links, taking screen captures and savings images. Its your time to figure out what sorts of web sites appeal to you, and what doesn't. When we start learning about creating the visual interface of a web site, you'll have a useful archive of ideas and imagery to start your own sketches.

The resources for this week, therefore, aren't all about web design, per se. They are sites that consistently offer unique and thoughtful insights about the nature of the internet, as well as recent projects that are worth noting in the realms of art and design online.
