Thanks Everyone!!! (and assignment)

Thanks again for attending the workshop! I overscheduled a bit, and I'll keep that in mind when fine-tuning next week's workshop. Let me know if you have any questions, by email or IM (AOL/Yahoo - tmvogel2).

During the week:

  • Continue posting and commenting on the blog. If you want to continue the in-class assignment of identifying the blog you want to create and the technical assets and challenges, go ahead. At least a few of you were already striking out and creating new blogs of your own. Those will appear only on your Blogger dashboard unless you invite others to contribute.
  • Add a few more RSS feeds to the Bloglines account. There are dozens of RSS readers available, and what you end up using will be based on your preferences. Though not perfect, I prefer the web-based Bloglines and Google Reader because I'm not tied to a single computer. If you really stick to one computer, then a desktop reader or using your browser to capture and read the feeds may be better alternatives. Just start small to avoid information overload.
  • And if you're feeling daring, try out one of the Google products and let everyone know what you think. Docs and Spreadsheets is the closest match to what we'll be talking about next week.
