Default Announcement about recent blogs you might have seen

For those that enjoy reading the blogs, you may have noticed that quite a few lately have the same subject matter. You are probably wondering why so many are blogging about the Crandall Printing Museum etc. You are also probably wondering what the heck is going on. Am I right?

Well I'm here to tell you why.

There is currently a religion class at BYU that is given an assignment each week to post a blog about a particular given subject. They were given 2-3 sites in which they could do this. One of them being lds.net.

I've been told they were given lds.net for 2 reasons.

1. It's free.
2. It's safe.

That being said..let's be courteous to these students as they fulfill their weekly assignments. I would much rather have them here posting their blogging assignments than another site that may not be as safe or as accommodating. Many of their blogs are gospel related and it's been interesting to read the different perspectives on the same subject.

Very cool. Maybe we can even get the posters to stay on after the assignment is finished.

I do not blog here because I like the format of Wordpress Blog. One of the features of Wordpress is that you can make the blog private and then invite particular readers to read the blog and not have it open to the general public.

Okay thanks. But really not the intent of this thread.

I had that same thought as well.
