First weekly blog post
January 26, 2008 | | Leave a Comment
Your first weekly blog post is due this Friday (2/1) by midnight. For this post I’d like to see you write an introduction to your blog. In this post you might detail the “theme” of your blog and explain what aspects of that theme you plan to cover. You might include your own experience and/or interest with/in your topic, establishing your authority as a blogger on this subject. You could also describe the tone that your blog might take — funny, serious, controversial, personal, informal, etc. In it you might link to some of the other resources you’ve discovered out there on your topic (or to anything else you reference that your reader might want to know more about).
(You can also add these resources to your blogroll if you want. To do this: from your dashboard click on blogroll. Choose to add a link. Give it a title and paste in the URL from the site. Click on add link.)
**For those of you who have already written an introductory post, you can either reframe your topic in a second introductory post (what might you add to your approach to this blog that you didn’t include in the first post?) or you can just begin blogging on your topic.
