My Podcasting Experience

The technology that I am exploring is Podcasting through Podomatic.com. Podcasting is an opportunity to share your opinions, talents and so much more with others through the Internet. I do not have any experience with podcasting, so I found it to be very difficult to use. After hours of trying it finally started to make some since. I struggled the most with trying to use Audacity. There was a lot to learn. I then struggled with uploading it to Podomatic.com because it was not in the right format. I actually found uploading my podcast to my Blog fairly easy. I maybe able to use this in the future in other classes. I could also use a podcast as a way to communicate with the parents of my children. I can keep them updated with whats going on in the classroom. One important tip I have is don't wait till the last minute. It took me a lot longer then I thought. Also be very patient. You will make a lot of mistakes before you get it right.

How to to find a background template like mine

Hey again, I was searching through other blogs when I found a website that allows you to upload free backgrounds. thecutestblogontheblock.com. Once you get to their website click on the second box on the left. It says "Its all Free." Click on FREE Backgrounds. Then click on Blog Spot Backgrounds. This will take you to lots of FREE backgrounds that you can choose from. Select the background you want and scroll down. Right under the background you selected are instructions on how to upload the background to your blog. They are very easy to follow and worked for me.

Getting Started



Hey All, Its me Ashlee again. Welcome to my Blog. This is the first time that I have done an actual Blog. I do have a Facebook page but I don't do much on it. So far I am enjoying putting this together. I do wish that they had a few more design options. Customizing my page has been fun and pretty easy. I added a picture of my nephew because he is so cute and sweet, even when he is pouting. I also added some videos from one of my favorite groups Floetry. In the top right hand corner of your blog you can select customize. Once you have done that, then you can select add gadget. You can pick from any of the items listed. This helped me customize my page to my liking.
