Show & Tell - Social Software: Using Blogs

As a follow up to our internship experience at CDE, University of Alaska, Fairbanks, we decided to share with our DFLSC collegues our experiences with the use of blogs during the show & tell segment of the OPS Meeting on August 15th.
Anare began our show and tell with a ppt. presenation on the following:

• What is Social Software?
• Blogs defined
• Advantages of using blogs
• Primary uses of blogs

Ala then went share some experiences of blogging during our internship at CDE.

We would like to acknowledge Chris Lott & CDE for our presentation because most of the content was derived from the teaching tips wiki page on the use of blogs.

CDE has a revamped website and it is just excellent!!!! Love it!!! Great work by the
project team!!!

As well as wikipedia for the following resources:
