Setting up this blog was interesting but time consuming. I would advise any other 'newbies' to blogging to set aside a 2-3 hours and good bit a patience when starting a new blog. You have to be willing to come to a page with little information to guide and guess at what you do next. But that seems to be all right. My impression is that most things can be undone or redone.
I am impressed by the editing tools I found when I clicked on the tab to add my first post. I have not explored them yet, but can see by the familiar symbols that there are formatting options to hang things around my words and add color and emphasis to them . . . should I choose to do so.
The problems I see looming for me include the fact that I love to write and have avoided doing a blog in the past because I can't stop the words sometimes. Once I start writing, I find more of my time occupied with thinking about writing the next piece. Add to that the tasks of the NEFLIN 23 challenge and I see time being chomped out of already busy life like the little bits gobbled up by PackWoman in the old but wonderful console games on20 years ago.
But it seemed worth it, so here I go.
Come back to see if I can restrain the words while putting in the time for this worthwhile dive into Web 2.0
