__Challenge #5 __
For this challenge, you will create a Livebinder account. Using the Search box on the website, search for some binders related to a topic of interest - education, specific content area, hobby, etc. Once you have found one that might be useful to you, add it to your shelf. Copy and paste the URL of your shelf under the appropriate challenge on the 12 for 2012 Gallery Page (make sure you include your name, so we know whose shelf we are looking at).

Now take it up a notch and create your own binder. Start adding websites, documents, images, videos, etc. to your binder. Once you have some materials in your binder, copy and paste the URL of your shelf under the appropriate challenge on the 12 for 2012 Gallery Page (make sure you include your name, so we know whose shelf we are looking at). If you want to really test your skills, then embed your binder on the 12 for 2012 Gallery page.
