Creating a Blog!

This has been my first experience with Blogs! I know several of my friends have Blogs but unfortunately I have never visited their pages. I have always used the Facebook application as a way to stay connected with my friends and family (well - my sister, sister-in-law, brother-in-law and cousins!) I have always enjoyed Facebook as it allows me to update my profile, add new pictures, and comment on my friends pages.

Blogging was a new experience but it is very similar to Facebook. Creating my blog was easy for me however uploading pictures proved to be quite the task. It would not allow me to upload some photos that other sites have allowed me to upload.  I received an error messaging while uploading but it never indicated what the problem was but I found other pictures to add!

Blogging seems like a fun new way to communicate with others and I can see how it could be very beneficial in the classroom. I am looking forward to using my page for the semester.

I unfortunately do not have any tip for my fellow classmates but as you mentioned on the Module - make your page fun. This is YOUR page to personalize so add photos, update your about me section, and make it a reflection of your life. I have never been good at scrapbooking so I look forward to creating my virtual scrapbook.
