Neato Student Blogs From My First Blogging Class At SFSU

8 Replies

I taught my first class in blogging at San Francisco State last week. I’m HTML-ing the tutorial and will have it up in a bit.

It was so incredible teaching blogging! The students seemed to pick up on it very quickly. Within two hours after my lecture, the first blog came to life. Then all the others started to pour in. Check them out for yourself.

One of the things that was so cool is that many of the students are going to keep their blogs going. (They originally were only creating them because I had given it to them as an assignment.)

This Is A Blogmapper Test

Here I am, almost ready to post the first batch of Foo Movies, and now I’ve gone and gotten sidetracked on Blogmapper, a tool for generating code to specify the latitude and longitude of a geographical location so you can include your coordinates within blog entries. I don’t know if I’m doing this right. But I suspect I’ll find out soon.

(Update 10/14/03: Aha! I forgot to include the necessary JavaScript. Testing again now…)

I’ve embedded this code in this entry:


<span style="display:none" xmlns:geo="http://www.w3.org/2003/01/geo/wgs84_pos#">
<geo:lat>38.07306</geo:lat>
<geo:long>-122.693</geo:long>
</span>

38.07306-122.693

Just added this link for a test:

Please send comments today and let me know what your experience is.
I really want to get to the bottom of this.

Help Me Fix My Comments

Hey I’ve got some kind of weird bug going on when users get an error message before the comments sends anyway. Has anyone else seen this problem? Wanna shoot me an email and help me fix it? (Please 🙂
Okay I missed that the Daily Show had an incredible set of recall clips tuesday night — so i’ll be getting those up now.
Then there’s the rest of the week of the Daily Show, the rest of the Dick Cheney clips (yes! there’s more!) — Jesse Jackson’s speech from the protest Tuesday — and whatever else I’ve still got in the kitty from last week…
