Reply #10: Because Skinner, et al set up a way to do it.......and I'm not sure

WHERE they are going with this because anyone here on DU is not doing an "independent blog" but is attaching themself to this site to get their "training wheels" or because they think "what the hell."

I wouldn't do an independent Blog..too worried about keeping the Freeper Trolls off and not technically proficient enough...but if you are addressing this new DU BLOG thing...then I would say..."I'd like to do it" because "I'd like to learn the new technology and what I would call "geek speak" about "modules/skins and html."

I don't have access on my own to people who can help me with the NEW Internet Publishing Terminology...but I have a Book Publishing Background and a few classes in "graphic design" from the "old days" before the web...so I figure...it's good to learn and I have lots of opinions on issues that we are facing so I ought to try it out....



Oh ...if only you "guys/gals" could learn to speak to us from the old "Publishing Days" to help us understand "Modules, Skins and html..."

:D ...just saying. Those who love Language and Communication will always find a way to communicate with each other...but many of the "Old School" seem very intimidated...:shrug:

IF you are only talking about DU'ers who have their own INDEPENDENT BLOGS...then just disregard what I just said......
