Blogger set up

Guys, I'm relatively new to blogging. However, I will mention one thing that is important. Don't write anything that you don't want to memorialize on the web. There are search engines that capture everything on the internet including blog entries. I advise my students to not submit items to Facebook or MySpace that they wouldn't want their family or employer to see and I suggest the same for any of you. That said, I won't edit your submittals unless they're in extremely poor taste.

If you would like to set up your own blog, feel free to do so, let me know and I can put a link to it on this blog. Google owns blogger.com where I've set this up and they give away the software and disk storage for the right to include the content in their searches (probably page 432,798 of someone's search, but it could be surfaced).

Lastly, if you note at the very bottom, you can subscribe to the posts, meaning that you can set it up so that you are emailed whenever a post is added. That way, you don't have to come to this site every day unless I/we add something.

Fred:
Jim Fleck was already on the list, under the guys who didn't graduate. I added Peter.
