hi DDN members -
one of the things i think about a lot is ways to increase the quantity and quality of online conversations, while at the same time keeping people from feeling overwhelmed with the quantity of email they receive.
the blogging feature on the new DDN web site is a big step forward in that regard. it's a place where useful information and ideas can be shared in a timely fashion with hardly any effort at all.
if you've already set up an account on the new DDN site and haven't tried blogging, i suggest giving it a try. you can set up your blog from the Profile area of the DDN site. http://www.digitaldivide.net
i browse the DDN blogs once or twice a day to stay in the loop about things. i'm constantly learning new things from deborah elizabeth finn and the other pioneering DDN bloggers. the genius of the DDN blogs design is that a single mouse-click takes you to all the new blog postings. it's like reading slashdot, except all the blog postings are more directly connected to your interests.
yes, you can include links right within your blog postings. the syntax for creating a link in html is <a href = "http://www.whereyourelinkingto.com";>text you're linking from</a>
use this same syntax and replace where you're linking to and the text you're linking from.
as the DDN community continues to grow, the blogging feature on the DDN site will be one of the best ways for community members to share information and ideas with each other. the DDN email list still has its place and function. the more of us who are start blogging on the DDN site, the stronger our overall community will be.

note - to edit your blog postings on the DDN blogs, click on the title (subject) of the blog posting you want to edit. an edit link will then show up at the bottom of the blog posting. click on the Edit link, make revisions, and then click Edit again to save your revised blog posting.
