NB
As I mentioned in class, we've begun uploading our lecture and recitation notes to nb , where you can post comments and questions about them. The most basic use of nb is simple: click and drag to highlight a region of the notes on which you want to comment, then start typing. nb offers more functionality, such as replying or adding yourself to the list of people wanting an answer to a question, that you can access by right-clicking a note. There's a tutorial at the site's home page.
