We are going to begin a new adventure in this class and participate in a Blog. According to Concept Websites a blog is basically a journal that is available on the web. The activity of updating a blog is "blogging" and someone who keeps a blog is a "blogger." Blogs are typically updated daily using software that allows people with little or no technical background to update and maintain the blog.



I will be posting articles and/or discussion questions. You will be responding to those so that we may have online discussion.



Please respond to this welcome message by clicking comment and sharing a little bit about yourself.
