    Dr Leong: Hello CYP participants. Some are lagging on units 1, 2 and 3. We’ll give you time to catch up on relating learning processes to your real life learning experiences and how you perceive learning.
    So Monday 1 Dec 2008 will be catching up time and if you come to class in SHBIE lab 1.50, we will learn how to develop a blog on the internet for you to share your experiences and maybe do some small business of your own.

Doing with Blog is very interesting.
Blogs are cool. You probably have read success stories about them as marketing tools. Whether you are a small business owner or independent professional who works at home, you can tap into its potential and immediately become an expert in your niche.

As Youth Worker ,
for the past year or so I've been playing around with the idea of changing things up here. I started this blog with the idea that I would always be "a rookie;" always learning something new, more effective, but never claiming to be an expert or to have learned all I would need.

My blog's intention was to always write hard-hitting, usable or theological youth reflections and ideas. But what I noticed about all the other great youth blogs I read was that they had more in them than just photo activities; they talked about the bloggers' families, hobbies, and other things like that.

If I say "Youth is my life" I'm usually complaining about how much time it takes, and how little attention I have to pay to everything else because of the work I do for my youth group. So check out my blog, let me know what I can do to make it better, and let's explore what it means to live youth group together!

But, According to the source pros and con of having blog by Spero News, is there any drawback? What should you know before deciding if you are into blogging?

For the uninitiated, there are approximately 175,000 blogs created on a daily basis. The number is increasing -- more than double -- compared to last year.


It cannot possibly maintain the growth at such rate forever. After all, there are only so many people on the earth, especially who are online. Everyone can only start and blog about so many things at once.


E-mail newsletters and traditional websites serve this purpose only partially. Both of them convey information to the consumers, with no way to interactively give feedback.


That is why although a website and a blog could complement each other, small business owners and solopreneurs who are just going to build their first web presence, often choose a blog as the only solution without a traditional website. -
