The OED

 Thinkwrite: Now that you've spent some time with Kickstarter, what do you think of the crowdfunding concept? What are its strengths and weaknesses?

 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_crowdsourcing_projects  

Well, here's MY favorite crowdsourced project: Watch this video....then look at the OED. Punk, anyone?

From now on, I may tell you that your TWFTD info must come from the OED. When I do that, you first choose ONE of the quotes, copy it down, give its year, and then the definition that matches that quote. Please do look over ALL the definitions when I send you to the OED. See the link on the left side of this post for the OED. If you are at home, the password info is there as well.

Prepare your daybook to hand in.

Homework:

1. Prepare the final copy of your Kickstarter on paper to hand in on Tuesday. Be sure to credit sources for pictures.See page 461 in Everyday Writer for an example. Use "Source: ........." and then provide website info or your name if the graphic is yours.
