The huge free web encyclopedia Wikipedia defines a weblog as: a web log or simply a blog, is a web application which contains periodic posts on a common webpage. These posts are often but not necessarily in reverse chronological order. Such a website would typically be accessible to any Internet user. The term “blog” came into common use as a way of avoiding confusion with the term server log. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blogging

Welcome to the blog which will support the blogging workshop session at the editor’s conference being held at the Seattle Hotel in the Brighton Marina complex on September 22nd and 23rd. This particular workshop takes place on Friday 23rd.

The idea of this blog is to provide some ideas and background before the conference, as well as a chance to get some hand’s on experience with posting and commenting on a real live blog. I will also post links here to interesting blogs, information and trends which I would like you to look at please.

If we are to get the most out of the day, as much immersion as possible is desirable. Happy blogging!
