What about the class?

I decided to take this class to gain an understanding of how to do online reporting. I considered taking feature writing instead, but decided it would be much more beneficial for me to take this as this is where I think the profession of journalism is going. One of my main interests is sports, and since I have not seen any real multimedia reporting on sports, I would be interested in seeing if there is a way to combine the two fields.
One of the multimedia stories that I really admire is called Final Salute (to see this follow the link and then click on the slide show to the right of the story) To me this is an exceptionally well done piece which does a good job of complimenting the written story.

Those were some powerful slideshows. When did you first see them?
