So You’ve Got a Blog. Now What?

1

A few of us Thursday night bloggers are considering doing a few workshops for people who would like to know about some of the more advanced features of the blogs on Harvard’s server. We just finished a series of classes at MIT to introduce people to blogging and walk them through setting up their blogs. The proposed course would be a sequel to that. We’d like to get input from people who blog on Harvard’s server to get some ideas about what we should cover in our class. We already plan to cover:

  • TrackBack
  • How to change colors and themes
  • Departments
  • Adding navbar navigation/links to the aggregator, stats, departments, etc.
  • The built-in aggregator and subscribing to blogs
  • Images
  • What stories, pictures, and gems are
  • Uploading things to the blog
  • Editing the HTML templates and style sheets
  • Backing it up and how to get it restored
  • An introduction to copyright issues
  • Libel and slander

If you have any suggestions, please comment below or bug j. We will let people know when the classes are.

    I’m looking forward to Thursday night meetings and workshops, but could I also get a personal blog tutor?
