Keep on Blogging

Thanks to all who have shared your lovely reflections, insights, questions and plans in this community blog and in your individual blogs thusfar. If you haven't posted to your blog or the community blog then I'd encourage you to do this either by yourself or with a colleague. If you post together then just indicate who the post is from.

To continue our engagement with the practices of blogging I'd encourage to try the following between now and the end of the academy:

1) Comment on a message from a colleague
2) Link out from text in one of your messages to somewhere else on the web. When you enter or edit your message just highlight the text that you want link from. Then click on the little symbol at the top of the edit box which shows a small link in a chain on top of a very fuzzy globe. You will then be asked to enter the web address.


3) Refer and link to a colleague's message in one of yours. Clicking on the title of their message in their blog always links to their message.
4) Include an image in one of your messages. If you upload an image file then try to keep it as small as possible to ensure that it opens fast when colleagues access your message. Smaller files also upload far more quickly from your computer to your blog ;)
5) Change your blog template to include links to your favourite sites or a list of your favourite books.

How about it?
:)
Tony

Tony, I tried that, had to fiddle a lot but I suppose that's how to learn. I feel like I'm developing my own little website. Check it out, with practice I will become more creative,
Thanks
