Introduction to blogs

Today I gave a half-day workshop to colleagues in Coventry University London Campus.

Topics

  • Defining the purpose of your blog and its messages
  • What is a blog?
  • Best Practice
  • Writing a blog post
  • What makes a good blog?
  • Twitter
  • RSS feeds
  • Components of a blog
Here's one of the resources that I created for the workshop. Its purpose was to show many links so I put it into a blog. http://introductiontoblogs.wordpress.com 

Blogs are excellent for showing links but if there are links on a blog, people visiting it may soon disappear! But I want visitors to explore the links.  And to do other things.
