Blog as an alternative to group website

On March 23rd, in Tom's office, we discussed about building a website for our "connection" research group (or how many X's do you know group). For something like this, in order for it to work, some one must take up some tedious work. I suggested a blog. Andrew said he was happy with blog except for only one concern--he could not directly attach a file to his blog post. I was not sure about blogger.com blogs, so I didn't insist on the idea. I used the "upload file" function of blogger.com editor and put document1.pdf in the same folder as the blog. However, it did not automatically generate a link to that file. The link needs to be added manually. It is a WORKABLE setup but not the most convenient we may wish to have.

Regarding the security, we can always implement .htaccess level of limited access. Try click on my teaching site for w1111. It is pretty easy to set up but I haven't mastered how to let users change their password occassionally. I suppose it is not our biggest concern now.

Blogging can be a great alternative to using a group website. With a blog, you can keep all of your content in one place, and you can easily share it with others. Plus, blogs are easy to update and manage, so you can keep your audience up to date with your latest posts.Baby Bags

logging provides a fantastic alternative to utilizing a group website. It offers the advantage of centralizing all your content in a single location while facilitating convenient sharing with others. Additionally, blogs are user-friendly platforms that allow for effortless updates and management, ensuring that your audience stays informed about your most recent posts.
