Week Thirty-four - Review of the week and More Questions from Gordon

This week, and I'm sure that the next three weeks will too, feel like I have been racing Jamaica's Usain Bolt (and struggling to keep up) in a marathon.  But the course is getting there. 


The Communications class on Thursday is all done and out of the way, but I'll still be coming the usual time to make sure that the work is getting done. 


Gordon has given us some more questions on blogs in preparation for the assessment on weblogs. 

• Where does the name Blog come from?

The name "Blog" comes from what the word means: "Weblogs"

• When was the first blog created and by whom?

The first blog was created on the 17th of December 1997 by Jorn Barger. 

• How much personal information should you have on your Blog?

Very little, perhaps just your nickname.  I wouldn't put my contact details and address where anyone can see it, in case the viewers of my blog want to send bad mail to me or start to follow me around. 

• What is the general term for all the Blogs that have been created?

I'm not so sure that I understand the question Gordon's asking here.  I think that I better ask him. 


Hopefully, the assessment on blogs are multiply-choice assessment next week. 


I hope that next week and the remaining two weeks after that will go well for us all and we all do well enough to carry on next year. 


Wish us all luck.
