Chris, I have been playing with the new blogger (the one that you find at beta.blogger.com) and I think is one of the easiest ones to use. We use Drupal for some of our sites but is not the most simple one as it needs a lot of tweaking. I find the new Beta blogger even fun to work with.... ----- Original Message ----- From: "Christopher J.

I don't even know what a bon log is! Chris Christopher J. Richter Assoc. Prof. & Chair, Communication Studies Hollins University P.O.

Richter Sent: Wednesday, October 18, 2006 1:45 PM To: air-l@listserv.aoir.org Subject: [Air-l] Practical bon log application advice My experience with blogs is limited to reading, and occasionally posting comments to other peoples. But during January I will be co-teaching a travel-study course We would like one of the assignments to be a travel blog for the entire class. We will probably be able to get server space on a university computer. But I need advice on possible software/applications. At a minimum we want our students to be able to input/upload text and images (video would be nice, too). The interface needs to be relatively simple, as we will sometimes be working from cybercafés, with limited time to fuss with things. And, of course, cost is a factor. Any suggestions? Feel free to offer advice either on or off list. Thanks Chris Christopher J. Richter Assoc. Prof. & Chair, Communication Studies Hollins University P.O.
