What should your blog have by now (10/6/2008)

I have spent time this weekend going over the student blogs. There are some very creative efforts, so far.

Here are some things I am expecting to see in all the blogs, so far.

  • Use a professional style, the one with a main page and tabs.
  • Create a redirect home page. This is so that anyone typing in your home page won’t see the temporary place holder.
  • Change the header photo on the blog opening page. No roosters or foliage please!
  • Write an coherent introduction for your opening page. Who are you? What are interested in? Why should I want to read your blog?
  • Use tags and categories for your entries.
  • Watch the spelling and grammar of your entries. Although bog entries tend to be informal, they should be readable.
