The NeighborMedia compilation that we screened last week is now online for anyone who missed it or wanted to catch it again. You can view it by following this link to blip.tv. The screening commemorated the end of CCTV's first NeighborMedia term. But the program will return soon, so if you like what you see, contact us and find out how to get involved next time around!

The first term of CCTV's NeighborMedia program officially ended on Monday, with participants and community members gathering for a screening of some of the best work from the past nine months. Thanks to Evelyn Ratigan at the Cambridge Chronicle for her recent article about the project.

NeighborMedia will be back after a brief hiatus, and in the meantime, citizen journalists will (hopefully!) continue to update the site with news from their neighborhoods. Stay tuned to find out what the future holds for the program!

Check out the latest monthly installment of the NeighborMedia wrap-up show by clicking here. On this episode:

• Learn all about Lesley University's plans to acquire the Art Institute of Boston.

For those who wish to incorporate multiple photos into a blog entry, Margaret Desjardins put together a special HTML formatting chart for NeighborMedia bloggers awhile back. In addition to Margaret's method, you can also upload your photos under "File attachments." Then, copy the code and go back to edit mode and paste it into your blog entry.

You can also use Margaret's cheat sheet for the basics, like:

• making bold or italic type
• linking to another URL
• bulleted lists, such as this one

• resizing text

• and, of course, the colored text Margaret is famous for.

Bookmark it and use it to get started.

It's hard to believe that it's been almost a full school year since we launched "Youth View Cambridge." Where did the time go? As the CEA Media Fair proved on Tuesday night, the weeks and months since last October have been well spent.

Cambridge Educational Access opened its doors at the Media Arts Studio in 2005 with little to no programming, and it has grown into a dynamic channel that features several hours per day of student-produced work.

Yet as the media fair came to a close earlier this week, it was not the programming that really stuck out in our minds: it was the bond that had been formed between students through the process of making that media. As the students reiterated during the next day's YVC shoot (the last one of the season), we at CEA -- staff, student reporters and work-study crew -- have become "a family."

You'll need a big bottle of eyedrops to make it through all of Karen Klinger's Cambridge eyesores featured on the latest monthly installment of NeighborMedia.

Plus, learn all about plans for the extension of the Green Line at Lechmere, as Ilan Levy explores some of the possibilities in depth.
