Lower Sixth ICT - Work for Mr. Jones 5/12/05

You are working on an e-book which includes the Information Age. This is your look at how ICT is affecting many aspects of society. One fairly recent development in the world of ICT is that of Blogging. Although blogs have been around for quite a long time, their use has rapidly increased in the last few years with the advent of faster internet connections and easy to use blogging websites such as http://www.blogger.com/.

For a good introduction to blogging look at this video from the Teacher's TV channel. It is entitled 'The Blogosphere' and defines some blogging terms and concepts. You could include this video in your e-book in the section on communicating with ICT, explaining what blogging is all about.
