November 30th, 2006 | 3 comments

I have been receiving a lot of responses like, I don’t know what a blog is, how does a blog work or I don’t want others to read what I write. I plan to answer all these concerns and hopefully make you less afraid to leave a comment. I have put together a short but thorough reference for blogging and at the end have included an anonymous survey so you can tell me how I can make this blog interesting enough for you so I don’t keep writing to myself. Please take the time to complete the survey at the end (your responses will be anonymous and greatly appreciated!!)
