how to make a blog Web 2.0 Things

See http://ilw2.blogspot.com for more information.

Robert Slater is teaching the first 2.0 session, "how to make blog." There is a simple user interface for blogger to create posts in your blog but you can use html as well. If you copy a list, for example, from Word you get a bunch of bad code. Today we are using blogger.

Pick a good title for your blog. Make sure the URL is easy to remember. Make sure the title is meaningful and compelling.

It is possible to use Word 2007 but you have to create the doc in the new version of Word .docx. If you compose in word you will get a lot of html junk, lose formatting and the content won't be accessible. Could break the blog. It is easier to compose in blogger.

it is possible to embed image or video in a blog using edit html. If you insert /embed picture or video you won't see it in the post, you need to use preview.????

It is possible to edit posts in blogger as long as you are logged in to blogger. you can unpublish a post by going back and saving the already published post in draft form. There is no easy way to recover a deleted post (it just can't happen most of the time)
