'MULTIMEDIA'???

The term multimedia is used frequently in discussing how/what to blog to get into the high marks band. You're partially marked on the 'level of care in the presentation' and 'use of ICT' within your blogs. What does this mean? Multimedia = a combination of images, hyperlinks, podcasts, videos, vodcasts, links lists and other blog tools, use of Facebook/YouTube et al for audience feedback/research/marketing etc. Level of care means taking time to appropriately illustrate posts, find useful hyperlinks to include [generally make a phrase into a hyperlink; don't just type 'here is a link:'!], and checking your links work, images have been properly embedded (always: save and upload, never copy/paste or drag in), posts don't have massive gaps/white space (if you place a lot of images in a post it can take some tweaking!). I try to apply these principles. Make your blogs at least as good as this one!

E-mail me your blog URL + Points on blog

I need to refresh my e-mail list and to have your new blog URLs, so please e-mail me your blog URL by the end of Tuesday.
Please also make sure your blog can accept followers (by default this appears on your template).
Note that you can export your entire blog to a new address when we come to hand-in time in December, at which point the blog at the web address you give me cannot be altered, but you can still change your copy at a new URL.
Please don't include anything irrelevant, but do look at the options, perhaps a set of useful hyperlinks or newsfeeds to a site you've come across (as I've done on several blogs).
I'll post a list of these once I've got the complete list, and would urge you to comment on each others (you can pre-vet comments by changing options in ).
