Great site Sarah. What a great resource.
What a nice job you did with this. It’s so easy to set up a blog, I couldn’t resist!
This is just advertisement. I didn’t really find it that helpful
Is this site also created using word press
This site is built on WordPress. As of this writing, it’s using the excellent PodPress plugin, though I will probably be moving some of the videos to Revver over time to make them more widely available.
I love your teaching very well done.
You cover some great point for those looking to get online.
I know that with cpanel and fantastico setting up a blog is a breeze. It is a couple of mouse clicks and your done.
Putting your videos on revver is a really nice move I post videos all the time from there.
Thanks,
Rod
