So after browsing and searching google i found this one that actually worked!</p> <p>The whole registeration process is quite easy and straight forward, its just a case of choosing your username and entering a few details - however im familiar with a few other social networking sites and found this fairly easy to navigate. If i was more "technophobe" i may have struggled finding a place to create a blog let alone registering.<br> The next big challenge I faced was navigating <a href="http://www.blog.co.uk">www.blog.co.uk</a> luckily i was clickign away on various icons and found the one called blog and here i am typing away!! The next thing was what to actually write, i feel as if i dont have anything that intereseting to write in my first ever blog,<br> I suppose i can see the interest especially if you are a expert in a particular field and people would liek to know your opinions!</p> <p>I suppose the main part of this activity is for me to see if it can be used within a blended learning solution as a way of interacting and posting findings whilst on a blended learning course!...</p> <p>from my intial apprehension of wether this can be a useful tool, i have noticed quite a few things that can be very useful - the uploading of documents, images and audio/video, the privacy options can allow you to have closed groups of friends etc</p> <p>I will post more as i carry on playing around</p> <p>Thanks for reading my babble <img src="/img/smilies/icon_wave.gif" alt=":wave:" class="middle" border="0"></p> <p>Kev </p> <p> <small> <a href="http://Kevhawkes.blog.co.uk/2008/02/26/my-blog-virginity-3783364/#comments">Comments</a> </small> </p>
