Blogging is an exciting way to share your passions, but fear of the technical side prevents many beginners from getting involved. This introduction to blogging mechanics is designed to show digital novices how easy blogging can be. Over a weekend Mark Jenkins will teach you how to build your blog with WordPress, define its look and feel, and use social media such as Twitter and Facebook to spread your words with online communities. By the end of the course you'll have set up a fully working blog, which you can continue to edit from any computer or smartphone.
