Re: [classblogmeister] Help with Hitchikr

Hello David, how are you?? I am going to give a training course about ICT
for the English class, and I am going to use your blog as a basis from which
incorporate other tools as slideshare, podcasts, treasure hunts, etc... As
you can see, I really like your blog and use it a lot. But before doing the
course I have two questions for you..
1. Can I give the same school code you gave me to the teachers attending the
course? (ismohe) There may be about 20 students.

2. You know I like the blog and all its tools, like the approval tool, etc.
But there is still one thing I don't like. Some other times I mentioned it
to you. I imagine it is something very difficult to do, but seeing what you
are able to do... I am talking about the editing tool. All other blogs have
editing facilities which makes writing more enjoyable. When teachers or
students write they can easily change the colour or the size of the text,
add smileys, add likns, images, tables, etc. Why is this not possible with
blogmeister?? Most of the students don't know anything about html and it is
difficult for them to use it in their articles. As a result, articles look
.. let's say... boring. I know that this is not the most important, as
contents is the most important.... but... I am sure it would make
blogmesiter the "best" platform for blogging!!

It's just a suggestion which would facilitate my job very much
