I am thinking of a blog to relay information to fund managers & faculty assistants. I would like to have them be able to comment or provide insight on subjects that come up, ie new policies/procedures they have encountered. I would like two way communication.
1) To provide journalists with story tips and news from UC San Diego. In this case, there would be multiple contributors -- my colleagues in University Communications and Public Affairs. Ideally, the communication would be two-way but if the blog proved too attractive to pranksters and snarky commentators, it might have to become one-way.
and/or
2) To stay in touch with friends and family. Here, I would be the sole contributor and would hope for lively interaction with the intended audience.
Two way communication is the primary goal for my blog. I would like to begin a blog to have discussions with students about what they are thinking and learning about.
It's www.fantasticfiction.co.uk. Great place to look at authors and lists of books. Especially if I want to see what's in a series.
... provide web administration and publishing information to web administrators and web content writers in the divisions of the Department of Medicine. Initially I'll be the only contributor, and others will post comments. I expect the communication to be two way. As I learn more about wikis, I may decide to use a wiki for this purpose instead.
We use a blog to post news for the Department of Medicine website -- UCSD IWDC set this up for us.
develop better communication with students and instructors. I want to set up 2 blogs. One is for the instructors that teach the courses in the program area I coordinate. The other will be for students to give me feedback on the instructors, content of courses and courses they would like to see offered. Communication would be two-way. I would be the administrator.
My main reasons are to keep up with current technology, keep in contact with family for genealogical and personal purposes and to make contacts with other administrative assistants.
My intended audience is family, friends and coworkers.
I hope to get many contributors as well as myself.
Seek suggestions to generate savings for expected budget cut.
The intended audience are UC community and anyone can contribute. The comunication will be two-way.
Keep friends and family up to date about the happenings in my life. A lot of my friends, family, and co-workers currently use blogs, and I have been thinking about setting up my own blog for awhile now, but I haven't decided on the right software, etc. I would be the only contributor to my blog, but I would like to make a comment option available so that I can get feedback from readers.
