\n\t\tGet Started
\n\t<\/h1>\n

We do things a bit differently, and that’s the way we like it!<\/p>\n

\n\t\tGet Ready
\n\t<\/h3>\n

We may\u00a0publish more details here soon but for now you can get ready by setting up the following:<\/p>\n

\n
• Be sure to have a Twitter account ready. If you already have one, that is great, if not you should set one up at the Twitter website<\/a>.<\/li>\n
• You will be writing your assignments on your own web log (Blog). If you have one already, that is great or you may want to setup a new one for this course. There are many options to choose from depending on your style choice and needs. Options include\n
  \n
  • WordPress<\/a> – a popular open source blogging platform which is what we use for this site. You can use their free hosted service<\/a>\u00a0, ask Ken to help you host your blog\u00a0over here<\/a> or download the software to run on your own server.<\/li>\n
  • Blogger<\/a> – another free blog hosting service<\/a> provided by Google.<\/li>\n
  • Known<\/a> – another free hosted service<\/a> providing an #indieWeb platform to host your content and “push” to other services including Twitter, Facebook and more.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n
  • You will be creating videos of yourself so will need access to a device to take videos of yourself. You could use any video camera including your phone, tablet or the web camera on a laptop or desktop computer. In order to share your videos with others we highly recommend publishing to YouTube, so you will need a Google account for that. Many of you already have one, so just try logging in at http:\/\/youtube.com<\/a><\/li>\n
  • Go register your information (blog, Twitter and more) using the menu at the top labeled “Register Your Blog\/Twitter\/YouTube” or click this link to go there<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
