Few students came to class. But that's not a big surprise given that the deadline for all the assessments has passed.

I helped out some students who missed the deadline due to various issues. Although in my opinion the main issue was lack of attendance in class throughout the year.

SOFT6007 Assessment 2 Extension

Both Geocities/Yahoo and Google have stopped offering free web hosting. This means that students who have not yet signed up for space at Geocities cannot no now do so. These students will have to host their sites elsewhere.

In order to give everyone more time I am extending the deadline by 2 days to noon on Wednesday 29 April. This should give students the extra time they need to come up with a plan B.

If you find a free hosting site that you think might be useful to other students in the class please e-mail Colin the details or leave them as a comment on this entry.
