This entire site represents what I have learned

Why I have included this in my project:

This list is included to illustrate the many visions we as a class had for this project, in addition to the process that we embarked upon. My project has been modified and reformatted as I progressed on my journey but the original intent of what I wanted to know has bascially remained since the inception of this project.
