To clarify your blogging assignment …

… let’s have the following (at minimum) ready to go Friday:

• 4-5 posts, rich with links and interesting content;

• an RSS feed for your blog;

• photo(s) with caption(s);

• embedded video;

• a blogroll of related links and blogs;

• and at least 3 other widgets of interest (such as RSS feeds from others’ sites)

Remember, I’m looking for signs of effort and interest in your blog—show me you’re having fun! We’ll review, praise, and critique each other’s work on Friday.
