Let's try this, then.

Earlier today, I was talking to good friend of mine and she says to me "put something up on your blog so I can follow you!" (in not so many words.) Let me indulge on a quick digression to explain that sometime last week, I decided I might try Blogger as a platform for a photography website. After all, I already use other google mediums, why not try this? I hadn't quite found a platform I found that met my needs while still being semi-professional. Needless to say, I am still trying to figure out the ins and outs of Blogger, and decide whether or not this will be an appropriate platform for my photography.  Because of this, my friend, a budding Blogger, saw my newly created blog and immediately followed it, only to see one quite uninteresting post saying something along the lines of "trying this out as a new platform for my photography website, I hope I like it!"

All this background information also goes to support that fact that with blogging in general, I am indecisive when choosing a platform.  Earlier this academic year I had to create a professional music educator website for my music technology class. Platform I chose? Wordpress. I do enjoy Wordpress (gasp) for it's dashboard and professional look, pages options, and I'm sure many things I have yet to explore. That being said, I was the only one in my music technology class who chose Wordpress. (I guess I missed the memo that the professor would be using Blogger for purposes of the assignment, whoops) so my friends and I could follow each other on the same platform if I choose Blogger.

I suppose this post is a long-winded version of me saying "trying out a new blog site! We'll see if I like it!"

Disclaimer: I may end up writing with Wordpress, since my 'professional' music educator website is already with Wordpress. Who knows.

Happy reading,
Becky
