We started to use the blog buddies today in class.  Students were able to find the website, login using a password and seeing the students work from Chardon or Beachwood.  However, we were having problems posting a comment to the blog. A Beachwood student found a trick to post comments.  The 1 minute tutorial will show you have to post your comment to the buddies blog. 

Also, what are your thoughts on the "live" skype window to Beachwood or Chardon?

Directions for your blog are given in the tutorial below.
