Hey Team,
I have a present for you. It's this blog!
By the classroom on Friday, I will have invited everyone on the Team to be a co-author of the blog so that we can all post.
Blogs are great because they are a way for you to share yourself in real time and for there to be a coherent, chronological record of shares (versus a mishmash of emails in your inbox), and people can directly comment on what you write.
I am proposing that we use this blog to share with the Team -- to share what we're getting from this magical and confronting program, where we're stopped, what amazing things are being accomplished in our games in the world, who we are avoiding or making wrong, and where we request Team's support. Or anything else you want to!
I'll post here periodically since I'm addicted to my computer.
I'm thinking we can keep our emails focused on Team business, and keep the blog focused on sharing that may not be urgent or necessary for the whole Team to read.
A quick tutorial: Blogger (this site) is incredibly easy to use. You're smart people and you'll figure it out. If you have a question or problem, email me. You'll have to create an account name, etc., like with an email address. You might need a gmail account (?) -- which wouldn't be a bad thing anyway if you don't have one because gmail is so much better than hotmail or yahoo....
Everything you write on the blog can be edited, and blogger saves automatically every minute or so.
I don't love the physical look of the blog, and there are a bunch of other templates to choose from, so go crazy and pick another one (and then someone else can pick another one) if ya want.
I see this site as a possible resource for folks considering joining Team as well. Do we want this blog to be available for anyone who's doing an Internet search or who's looking at different blogs on blogger? We can choose not to make it public.
Either way, I request that we are mindful of not sharing information about others on Team on this site, as that may be a privacy breech.
Feedback?
