In Web 2.0, a sandbox is the place to play! First, I want you to click on "New Page" in the menu on the left under Actions.

Name your page. DO NOT use your first and last name. Give your page a nickname. My nickname in college was Buffy so I would name my page Buffy's Sandbox. You can use the letters in your username if you'd like. Click Create.

=Step 1= In the top bar on your sandbox page, click the "Edit This Page" button. It will take you to a screen that looks much like a word processing screen. Highlight the text that is there and type in your own. Write a paragraph about your favorite singer or sports team or movie and why. Click save and you will see what your work looks like on the world wide web. = = =Step 2= Use Google, ask.com, yahoo, or another search engine to find a picture to illustrate your page. Copy the picture and paste it in your Documents File. Then, click on the picture icon (it looks like a palm tree), click Browse and find the picture in your documents file. After the right file has been found, click upload.
