The first task is to develop an idea or concept for your blog. Blogging usually involves a reflective writing process and quite often relates to a theme or area of interest.
In our first session, Margaret introduced us to the blog of her good friend who is using it to share his reflections and experiences as he cycles around Europe. We had a look at his wonderful blog which has maps, plans, anecdotes and more. Bev showed the blog of her friend Angie at http://www.spryandretiring.wordpress.com .
Judy spoke about the film 'Julie and Julia', in which Julie blogs each day for a year testing the recipes of Julia Child, forming the basis for what became an enormously successful blog and later book.

It will be interesting to watch as concepts for blogs emerge and developing over the next few months.
