Intro Email about me & the process of Setting up a Blog Page...

Hello again,

I'll start with a quick into of who I am. I'm currently a UBC student and highschool math teacher. This blog was set up to help archive my experiences in exploring web 2.0 tools within the UBC course Libe477.

I chose this website over others because I had limited experience with this site in a previous course taken at UBC, and I remember it being pretty straight foward. My memory served me well because it was just as easy to set up as I originally remembered.

The whole idea of a blog is quite new to me. I remember when I first heard about it, I wasn't sure what it was, and never went searching for explanations until I took the one UBC course a few semesters ago. I was familiar with the concept of 'discussion board' and used this knowledge to help me make sense of a blog. In summary, I think of a blog as a discussion board in which I am the owner/editor/moderator of, instead of posting to a disucssion board in which someone else owns it. Hopefully this is an accurate way of thinking about it. Let me know if not.

Looking foward to posting more in the future. The whole blog idea is a pretty interesting concept.
