Assignment 2: Explore the Clusty Cloud!

As you may have noticed, I have added a "Clusty Cloud" to our blog. This is a service provided by a search engine that I find to be very useful, www.clusty.com. I think it is better than Google in some ways, because it puts the search results into categories so that you waste less time looking at things that do not interest you.
Your assignment is to click on one or more of the words in the "Clusty Cloud" and take a look at the search results. Then, choose a category on the left, and start exploring the sites. Of course, after that, you have to write to me and tell me about what you have found.
I am looking forward to your comments!

WELCOME and first assignment

Dear Students,
This blog will be the control center for all of the activities regarding the 3 credit English course in Food and Health. If you have questions, comments or suggestions, just click on the word 'comments' below the relative posting, and you can share your ideas with the rest of the class! In order to earn your three credits, you are expected to participate in the online part of the course, so get ready to write!
To get started, I would like each of you to send me a 'comment' regarding the course so far - tell me about the activities that you like the most, the ones you have the most trouble doing, and whatever else you think about the book, the organization of the course, and so on.
Everything will be written in English - including your comments. Don't worry about making mistakes - it's part of the learning process...
I look forward to hearing from all of you - remember, it's part of the course, so you are required to make a comment.
