Thing #1:Registration & Blogging

I participated in UMD Library's Learning 2.0 program back in 2007.  The first thing we did was create a blog.  Do I know where to find the blog I created to record what I learned?  No, but I do know that I learned a lot about all the different technologies that touch every aspect of our lives today.  I also remember that I really impressed my spouse and my children (ages 12 and 15) when I introduced them to Pandora!  They've moved on to Spotify, but I still use Pandora.  

I chose to use Blogger to create my blog because it is part of the Google Apps provided by UMD.  It was very easy to set up.  I would like to use something other than email to communicate information to circulation staff and student employees and the ease of creating this blog makes me think this might be the thing.  Do others use blogs for internal communication or do they use email?
