After much consideration, I’ve decided to leave edublogs and migrate the classroom blog to another blogging site.
Edublogs was great while it lasted. I think it would be a great starting point for any teacher out there who wants to introduce blogging to their students. I think it would be a great starting point for any student out there that wants to start their own blog. It is extremely easy to use, so the beginner wouldn’t get discouraged because of their technophobia.
My next step would be to actually pay for a blogging service. I have a few more things to buy before I start paying for something that I get for free anyway.
So…the new classroom blog will be located at http://mrgranito.wordpress.com
Please update your bookmarks. Please update your rss readers. Please update anything.
For all of you educators out there. Check out your blog’s reading level. It looks like I’m writing on a Junior High School level. I guess I did that on purpose because that is my main audience, but I can’t say I’m satisfied with this. I’ve been in school systems for 23 years now. I’m really disappointed to be writing as a teenager, and an early teenager at that. The website analyzes the most recent post, so somewhere down the line I’ll strive for that High School level. I’ll have to thank big bro Greg for that link. He’s a year older and his blog reads at an elementary school level. Trumped!!
You can also check the gender of your blog post at a different site. I won’t tell you how I write. It’s official…the internet has everything.
I just created an animoto video. Pretty cool how it the program edits the pictures for you. And adds music!! I just don’t know how to make this a project. I’d like to add writing to it. Maybe I can turn a PowerPoint slide into a jpg.
Ok…It’s nothing special, but I’ve created a wikispace for the class. It is completely editable by you and me. Give it a shot, you just may like it.

In an attempt to get more street-cred on the internet, I set up a Technorati account. We’ll see what happens…
