Exporting

Today in class I looked at my two timelines to see what options I had for showing them.  With the free subscription, my options are limited.  I can print the timelines, convert them to a CSV format (what’s that?), or change it to a PDF if I download a “Paparazzi” application.  I think my best…

Project #3 Update
