Learning to Blog

Taking a wonderful class from the NNLM to learn about new technologies. Blogging is number 1. Great information to know and an important resource for a variety of groups and organization to use.
Hope to incorporate the Blog into NNAHEC activites by the first of the year. Should be easy to have content, will just need followers.
So off to layout content ideas.
