Demonstration of a First Post

MIT Intro to Blogging Class an Unqualified Success.

This
afternoon Andrew Grumet, Bob
Stepno
and the Dowbrigade gave
the first in a series of Getting Started with Blogging workshops at MIT.
It went great. Unlike the sessions we ran at BloggerCon,
in the MIT sessions, held in the gorgeous (from a techno-teacher’s point
of view) and fully
functional multi-media lab called the Trading
Room
, almost all of the
participants were actually able to create and post to their blogs before
the end of the session. The Trading Room is supposedly for running real-time
financial simulations and is decked out in Mondo Tech Max, state-of-the-art
stations, wireless to the rafters, electronic tickers, boards and projectors,
etc.

Of course, as is always the case when presenting something as awesome
and multi-faceted as Blogging, we ran out of time. The workshop was free,
and will be repeated three
more times
. The sessions are open to anyone,
but only folks with mit.edu or harvard.edu email addresses (including
ALL ALUMNI) can create
a free Blog on the university server during the actual workshop.

here
is the class plan
. And
if you ever want to hatch a Machiavellian plan to undermine and crash
the financial networks of a small third world country, consider renting
the Trading Room – it would be perfect.
