This blog is no longer updated.
Since I own the domain name for a couple more years, and the hosting was paid-in-advance, it's still here. But I've moved on to Hawaii, and no longer have the need to publish all the sorts of neat stuff that made up the contents of this website.
If you've linked to me, you are invited to unlink, as your readers will no longer be presented with new content. Thanks, Steve

On 13 Nov 04, I presented this presentation to the Seoul Computer Club.
During the Q&A period after the presentation, several questions were posed that were not covered during the briefing. Several of these topics are included here:
To start blogging right now, go to www.tblog.com, and enter a username, password (twice), email, and zip code. Recommend you change your timezone to GMT+0900 (Seoul), and select "no" for 15 day demo. Once you've created your account, log in, and start writing. Your blog URL is http://your_user_name.tblog.com - see http://sdcarroll.tblog.com for an example. (Obviously, you'll need to pick a username that isn't used, but easy to remember.)
The difference between a blog and a web page is the frequency in which you update the information on the page. Additionally, it was pointed out that "blogs" in Korean are considered the quite-structured hosting providers (ala cafe.daum.net) while "blogs" in English are the web pages and content of the authors themselves. Note to self: start reading more of them.
You should consider moving your blog to a Content Management System (CMS) when you have many blog authors (e.g. more than a handful), you have an approval criteria (are all posts posted on the main page?), or you have discreet administration requirements (e.g. some folks manage your links, some approve/disapprove articles, and others manage your comments). CMS's have a permissions structure built-in - in PostNuke, I can allow one user (or group of users) manage my banners, and another to manage the layout of the site (left/center/right column content).
If you want to demo several different blogging software packages (or CMS packages), visit OpenSouceCMS.com. The link didn't work from the classroom for some reason. WordPress is popular blogging tool - go ahead and give it a whirl. It will reset itself at the top of the hour (every other hour?).
