Well, thanks for the kind words about the class. I am truly thankful that you all found something valuable to take away from the class. Martha Ann, I can totally relate to the time issue. I completely understand that some of you may wish to start a blog but don't have the time. I would say that if you think you can find an hour or two per week, I would definitely look into blogging. It can pay extremely good dividends for a small amount of effort. If you are already so busy that you don't think you can do that much... then I would consider trying to find or recruit a good volunteer to help with your blog... college students make excellent candidates for this. As for cost of a hosted blog, it's going to run the same gamut that a hosted website will. You can get a website hosted through GoDaddy for pretty darn cheap, but you may not find the feature set or customer service levels you would prefer. You could also spend hundreds of dollars a month to host your website, if you so desired. The average hosting plan for a blog runs from a couple hundred dollars a year to around a thousand. Thanks again everyone! I'll try and remember to keep checking back so I can answer any questions you all might have. Appreciate the opportunity to speak to you... and have a Merry Christmas!

I have so many ideas to share with the rest of the staff- this will be a great medium for getting feedback on our new programs, and I have such plans for our interns!

The blogging class presented a wealth of information - and really reinforced the WHY we should be blogging, along with the HOW. Thanks so much to Keystone and CNM.

I really enjoyed your presentation, and took a lot away from it. I am going to try to start blogging on myspace for right now, but sadly I'm having some issues with myspace. I have contacted them several times, but I can't seem to get an answer! Anyway, thanks for coming and educating us on blogging! Thanks for the info, Jeremy!

I don't see how I can add answering bloggers, plus Facebook, in addition to the 70+ emails I get each day! Question: What does a hosted blog cost - a cost range would help? Thanks, Martha Ann I know we need to be blogging, but I take to heart your comment in the slides not to start if you don’t have time to post regularly.

Question: What does a hosted blog cost – a cost range would help?
Thanks,
