Weblogs - Grassroots publishing

Technology moves extremely fast, it is important to keep up to date with latest developments. One of the greatest things about the internet is that it gives the power of publishing to ordinary people.

With that in mind I have set up a wordpress blog for Phoenix Academy. If you are reading this post and do not study at phoenix you can choose from a variety of blogging software and services see below:

How?


blogging is web-publishing for everyday people see the wikipedia definition. Now you know what it is heres how its going to work. I you study at phoenix head over to www.phoenixacademy.co.uk/students/blog and click register.

Once you have signed up and the admin has okayed you to author you can begin posting, it really is as easy as that!

Why?


So no one wants to hear about what you had for breakfast or which bus you got to school! blogs are informal but they are not just diaries of your day, you can post about INTERESTING (for interesting read things that people you don't know may acctually look at) things that have happened to you, ideas, thoughts, how you think the world should work, how you think your school should work, politics, science, maths, the merits of algebra or communism. You can tell the world about anything you want, but don't forget you have to give the world a reason to listen.
