Livejournal should work, but I suspect that might be blocked as well. -mOn 11/19/05, jonny goldstein [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Anyone know of free blog that is password protected so people have to log in to view it? 360.yahoo.com is can do this, but I can't use Yahoo for this as it's blocked by board of Education filters at the site where I'll be.

Re: [videoblogging] Free, private blog?
This is my frustration with trying to work inside a school system and why I don't even try anymore. It's ridiculous that they think that young people aren't capable of doing this stuff by themselves without anyone's permission. That being the case why try to control it so much? Sure, put video and writing on the internet but how can we keep it private for the kids security? Have they never heard of Blogger, LiveJournal, MySpace, Xanga, etc, etc, etc.? The words, photos, and videos of young people are all over the internet already. Who do they think they're protecting? It's like pretending that kids aren't having sex and that telling them about birth control will only promote the idea. Give me a break.

Re: [videoblogging] Free, private blog?
Install Wordpress on your own server, and then password protect it with .htaccess. That should work reasonably well. You'll need to pay for the server, but the school might cover that coast. Dreamhost is around 7 dollars a month. Wordpress is free. -Josh On 11/19/05, Verdi [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: This is my frustration with trying to work inside a school system and why I don't even try anymore.

Re: [videoblogging] Free, private blog?
I'm in total agreement with Michael's sentiment; to that end, I think the best solution might just be Livejournal. Every kid could establish his or her own live journal account, and make their entries only viewable to friends. This provides the level of security that the administration demands and yet it also allows the kids to very easily modify their journal at their own discretion to allow the world at large to see it. It also allows the kids to selectively invite friends to see their work. A long time ago, Live Journal wasn't exactly free, or you needed to score invite codes. Though it wasn't completely free with an invite, an account was damn cheap and didn't have to be renewed beyond the first month.
