The Basics of Blogging Workshop was very successful. Our instructor Onedia Hayes Sylvest,

editor and publisher of the Bull Shoals Beacon provided an 22 page instructional booklet for each attendee. Each one was provided hands-on during the time they created one sample blog on Blogger.com and Wordpress.com. Onedia explained the differences, depending what the blog will be used for such as: family history, writings, family chats or promoting a business.

I need to take a class on down loading pictures. I just lost the last photo. Hopefully, I can put it on later. I found it. It is now at the top of the page.
