The Google Doc below contains screenshots of the websites that I made in INFO 240. These sites required combining all of the technologies presented in this class to create usable well formatted websites. I can use these websites to provide information, embedded videos, and links to accurate and relevant information. Additional comments and explanations are provided in the Google Doc.
