If you don't feel like learning how to 'blog' here, you can always sign the guestbook on the reunion page. Blogging is quite popular with the younger generation who use it to maintain somewhat of an 'online journal' for their friends to read. It's like having a web page without having to learn HTML or even have a hosting site. You can access it from anywhere just using a browser. I first heard about it 6 months ago and then later found that an associate was using it as a kind of 'groupware' collaboration tool. The nice thing about it is that you can go back and fix your posting if you made a typo or just wrote something really dumb. If you've ever participated in on-line discussions, you'll realize that ability alone is a very nice feature of a weblog. When you get really skilled, you can add links to your posings. There's a little globe with a chainlink up in the right hand corner of the editing screen and it allows you to insert HTML into your posting even if you don't know what that means. It also allows you to type in bold or italics without having to know the HTML for that either.
