    Hindsight is Always 20/20

    by
    Archives So for our very final assignment, we were asked to give advice for future students. Professor Bond does send out an e-mail before the semester starts warning about the amount of work and time required for the course. Definitely take that e-mail to heart, he’s serious! The work itself is not that hard and its actually fun to do, its just very time consuming. If you have a heavy schedule or work a lot or anything like that, this may not be the class for you. Also, when given the option to work in groups, always do it! Its […]

    The End

    by
    Archives It all started one dark and stormy night. I was at home, minding my own business and enjoying a well-earned vacation when I go the call I had been waiting for. It was the boss. “It’s go time” he said. “You need to be in Canada in 24 hours”. I knew this was it, the moment of truth. All of our agents’ spy work and missions would come down to this one mission. Russia and Canada have been plotting against us and the time had finally come to take them down. I had already had a plan in mind. […]

    Thanks ds106!! (Wow, time really did go!)

    by
    I have finally executed my ultimate mission and my advice to the fellow and prospective ds106 agents is, we must be vigilant at all times. First, I conducted the Twitter poll last week; I then devised a plan for Agent Nice Guy to find out if Agent Moncure is a double agent or not. Along the way, however, Agent Nice …

    After  long night at the office I came home to a folder waiting on my desk.  I hesitate to open it but when I do this is what I find: “We have unconfirmed reports that Canada is up to something, so we are looking to defuse the potential situation. Are they conspiring with the Russians? […]
