This task motivated me to talk with Jin about the DNL blog and how she can participate in it. I made her a contributing author to that blog. We talked about some of the things she needs to know to make blog entries on this Wordpress software hosted at CNS. I was able to share with her some of the things I learned doing the 23 Things blog as relates to the DNL Report blog, such as
1. Posting images- use Flickr or another online picture hosting software (Jin suggested Google Pics as well) to post a picture to the DNL Report. Because this blog is hosted on a CNS server, the picture either needs to be stored online or it needs to be sent to CNS to be loaded on their server
2. I showed her the YouTube postings I put up on my own blog (not the DNL Report) and told her my blog has tips on how to do things in Wordpress blogs.
3. I showed her how to include tagging and also the tag cloud.
4. We did a test posting together which included linking to a website,selecting a category, tagging and also included a link to audio.
I really enjoyed working with Jin on this. It helped me to clarify my own thoughts and pull some seemingly disparate items together.
