Hi Greg,

Do the kids need to choose between different external blogs?  So far, 
I've seen this as one local blog (OU Blog course1blog) tied to one 
remote blog (Blogger uruguay-xo-test).  Will course1blog need the option 
to post to more than one remoteblog at the same time and let kids select 
that information?

Thanks,
Tarun
