I'm Late, I'm Late For A Very Important Date

Our first project in Digital Design is to create a Web log, or blog, using Google's online Blogger software.

A blog is a clever combination of database and Web site that let's you focus on writing while a computer program, in this case Blogger, dates and archives your entries and then automatically generates a Web site that not only contains what you've written that day, but also contains links to all your previous entries.

The blog you'll create for this seminar is a simple online journal, complete with photographs and links. Because this project covers all the basic techniques, you'll be able to use what you learn to create all sorts of blogs – perhaps to begin an online newspaper or client newsletter, showcase a collection of your work, or work on a team project using a blog both as a communication tool and also for archiving the team's work and documenting progress.
