Other Blogish Options

http://www.bluehost.com - Webhost for your own website.

This is the only non-free service on this page, but the potential is unlimited. 

You will need to create and manage your own webpages from scratch.

http://www.myspace.com - Create your own page on MySpace.  Many ads, errors, slow loading, confusing, but extremely popular.

(MySpace account PowerPoint)

http://www.myspace.com/hallbuzz - My awful space on MySpace.  Seriously, this was an terrible experience.  After two hours I'm still confused. 

That was worse than Edline!

http://www.facebook.com/ - Similar idea as MySpace, but it works with less errors and is less confusing.  I also found it much easier to find people I know on Facebook.

https://twitter.com - What are you doing? 

Let family and friends know what you are doing now with micro-blogging!

classreport.org - My high school class page (as a sample).  A great, easy and free service that allows classmates to set up class and individual pages.
