Links for Topic

Today in class we added links to our blog that concern our topic. I still didn't pick my topic for my graduation project because I really don't know what I want to do. I pick three (3) links that apply to a topic that I might do. I used four (4) links instead because those links will be very useful if I decide to do that topic.
