[Blind-Computing] Blogging Space VS Personal Website

2012-06-08 Thread Sharon Hooley

Hi all!

My friend and I would like to put our ministry online.  She writes down 
poetry and would like to write whatever is on her heart.  Maybe she'll 
also want to share photos and videos.  I would like a website though.  
So I'd like to hear from you about the difference between blogging and 
sharing photos and videos, and a full-fledge Website, 
advantages/disadvantages. for each.


Thanks!

I've used wordpress.com in the past which is free. I've also used 
posterous.com which does have some limitations for those of us using screen 
readers however they can be worked around  allot of very neat things can be 
done with it such as posting audio  video files from email which are then 
posted as a player in the web browser. I now use wordpress self installation 
on my own domain  on a hosted web hosting plan.

[Blind-Computing] blogging?

2010-06-18 Thread Kimsan
Hi,
I have used wordpress a couple of times and man, how confusing it is for me.
What I mean is after I log in, where do I go to read the blogs I have
written? How do I post a new blog? If someone cannot provide me with some
sort of clarity of how to use wordpress.com for blogging, how about
blogger.com? Which of the two is easier as it relates to logging in,
posting a blog and locating the blogs that you have written.
Any tips would be helpful and great!
I am thinking about creating an account over at blogger.com but I will wait
until I get some feedback as it relates to navigating through wordpress.com.
Thank you.

[Blind-Computing] Blogging

Hi, I believe about sometime Wednesday I will have my setting up a blog
tutorial up on my website for download.

But what I need to know is: if anyone is interested in this kind of thing is
there any one who has a version of word less then 2003?

 

I would like to make it accessible to everyone.

I was almost done until I decided to add another blogging service to it, so
now you have two different choices.

 

Have a great day!

I currently use Word XP (2002)  If you want to make it accessible to a large 
range of potential users, you might consider saving the final document in 
.RTF format.  That type of document can be opened by almost any word 
processing program, including WordPad.
