Changes I made to blog

The blog looks great! I just wanted to share a picture of me showing off the book I got for my first LT class during the fall of 2015. Does anyone recognize what LT class that book was used for?

Some of the changes I made to this blog were:

  •  Adding this post
  • Replying to one of our blog members 
  • Uploading a profile picture and giving an introduction of me
  • Using the spelling check on the author's page to help with a couple spelling errors
I would also like to share this link I found interesting

Have a great semester!!

Hi. I thought the blog looked fine, but I changed some of the colors and fonts around, mostly just so I could see how to do it. I thought the light color on the letters was a little hard to read. I added some links to the Library and Technology page.
Hello All!

Since we need to make a change but I think it looks great just the way it is, I changed the font style of the tabs text. Great job everyone of making our blog look amazing! Looking forward to partnering with you all.

Hi LT 130

Hi LT 130,

I'm still learning how to add to this blog. It looks great so far! I added two more links to the library and technology resources section. Thanks for all of your hard work.

Matt

Here are some fun library related pages:

Hi fellow LT 130 folks!

My first blog post. Easier than I thought it would be.



Update...This is me with a new friend in Havana a year ago.

Update 2... a fun link to the Smithsonian Library site I found via the DLF:                  http://library.si.edu/exhibition/fantastic-worlds
It's a look at "science and fiction" from 1780 to 1910.

Update 3...added the translate gadget at the bottom of our page.

Nice work everyone!


A.J.'s Intro

Hi, I'm A.J. and this is my very first blog experience. The changes look good so far but I did tweak a few font sizes and colors. I tried adding a picture to the header but I didn't get it to work; looks like someone needs to teach me technology!

Kelly Dunn Update

Kelly Dunn Update To Blog:

- I added a page called "Library and Technology Resources"
- On that page I added resources provided by our professor and links that we can directly click onto
- I added Technology resources I have found helpful in regards to learning technology (I figure we can add to these as we gain more insight into Teaching Others to use Technology)

Updates Made to Blog

I made the following changes to our blog:
  • imported new background that more closely aligns with our technology theme
  • changed font style and sizes for header, post text, post title, and gadgets
  • changed color of fonts to coordinate with new background
  • adjusted column widths
  • created an "authors" page
  • added a pages gadget

Cool changes to our look...who did it?

Who made the cool changes to our blog?  Are we supposed to talk about the changes we've made on the blog in order to get credit?

Authors become adminstrators

Thank you, Professor Morrow, for the super helpful list of emails and the reminder to change those who accepted the invitation to adminstrators of the blog.

I am looking forward to seeing what changes each person will bring to our blog.

Deb intro and request for help

Hi, my name is Deborah Tison and I am a mom of 5 children ranging in age from twenty-two to twelve.  My kids are all much more "tech savvy" than I am so I appreciate our topic of teaching technology to others...namely to people in their 40's and 50's who have not grown up knowing how to use computers.
I am still working to get everyone in our group invited to our Blog, so if you have a helpful tip for getting the Palomar emails copied and pasted into the blogger.com settings page, I'd love to learn a more efficient way of doing this.

Soon,
Deborah
