I created a website for our usability test. I put all our steps on there and will put the screen shots and videos in when Ally and I meet this evening. I created questionnaires online and put the link on the website so the subjects can complete them while they're on the site.

Ally and I are meeting tonight to finish the rough draft of our documentation.

I continued working on the layout. Worked with the idea of a sidebar on the left margin of the report. I put a blue bar in, but it seems like a little much. I'm also trying to decide where to put the chart in the report. Still can't decide on a title for the white paper.
