Welcome UND Honors Students
Posted by undhon392 on December 24, 2007
Welcome to Kay Powell’s class blog for University of North Dakota, Honors 392: Web Revolutions, for Spring 2008. Because we are discussing some of the most recent innovations on the Web, it is my hope that the format of the class will be as new and innovative as the content. Some material will be posted on our class Blackboard including the official syllabus and assignments, so make sure to check that regularly. We meet at Robertson/Sayre Room 4B every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday at 11am, with exceptions noted in the syllabus.
Please reply to this blog (remember this is a public forum) with your first name and a link to your blog, if you have one. KMP

Thanks for being the first to post.
Matia said
Well my name is Matia like it says underneath this post…and like Angela I don’t have a vast amount of knowledge about a lot of Web 2.0 technology, but I am hoping to learn a LOT in this class! =)
Cory said
My name is Cory and I have no clue what else to say so I will just say Hi! lol
Brandon said
Hello every body I do not have a blog or website and that is about it.
Martin said
Martin here. No “official” blog, but am an avid user of Twitter and Flickr. I’m not too hard to find there.
Nicole said
Hey Everyone! I dont have a blog either…lol!
Brittny said
Hey all, no blog or website for me either.
Isaac Halvorson said
Well hello there. This is Isaac.
I am a regular purveyor of all sorts of websites, and browser of multiple rss feeds, but I don’t have a blog of my own. I did once, but it got old because no one read it. Sad, I know. Ok, not really.

I don’t have a blog, but a photoblog I check regularly is called daily dose of imagery. Check it out: http://wvs.topleftpixel.com/
Stephanie said
Hello everyone! My name is Stephanie, you can call me Steph if you want, and I would have to second Matia’s addition to this blog. I have very little knowledge of anything that we are going to be talking about and hope to learn a lot!! *i am a little nervous though*

After class today I was inclined to get done with some homework early during an especially slow day at work. After weighing the options, I decided to create a public blog for my WordPress assignment. You can find it here: http://martinrottler.wordpress.com/. Happy reading!
Katie said
So I am a bit confused with what you want us to do with WordPress. Do you want us just to have a user name or a blog as well? And does the user name have to resemble our own name?
undhon392 said
I want you to have a wordpress account, and that means creating a blog. For our purpose, you can make up an identity, or whatever *ahem* deception you want to use for your privacy. I do want you to have a blog, even if it’s only three posts and an e-mail address. (Again, you gotta get in the water if you want to learn to swim, so dive in!)
You can be “prettygirl789″ or “mymajorinHonors” or “UNDcrazy123″ for class purposes. I would like to include your blog in our class’s “bloglines” so people can see yours, but you don’t need to disclose more than you’d like. Use whatever alias you want. (just e-mail me privately to tell me that’s you)

Okay, I made a personal one for me

Hey Kay. I’m Ryan. I’m a complete geek. My site is http://www.adjacentidea.com. Over the past few years, I’ve mainly used it as a weblog and a web design portfolio. It’s a bit lacking in content at the moment but hopefully that will change over the next few weeks, as this class has given me some motivation to update it.

I dont ever use anything along the lines of blogging, Facebook is about as close as I have come to “blogging” (though I realize Facebook isn’t really a blog). Anyhow, Scott Dahlberg reporting in.
