Dear period 6, I started reading all your separate posts and grading them separately, but there were over 20 late blogs posted which would have taken me at least 2 hours to grade at the busiest time of the school year. I can't be that inconvenienced because you couldn't be bothered to do your work on time.All of you will get a grade of 4 for each post. You won't see comments, but it will show up in your report card grade. I may decide not to give credit for individual blogs, but that won't be recorded. Any comments were too late for a grade. I really enjoyed your posts, even the late ones. :) Have a great summer.Ms. G

Microsoft also owns a part of the share of facebook, and it has made them a lot of money. Facebook does so well that it has declined offers for shares of the network. Facebook is growing rapidly and more people join everyday. It is a great way to stay in touch with people, and it also takes up a lot of peoples time.

I chose this article because investment firms are making a lot of money off of a website that keeps people in touch and in the loop with there friends. I would use this resource again.
