I created my blog nearly 2 weeks ago, but have only just managed to register it.... I have been going through the Week 2 exercises and have been enjoying reading all the varied blogs that are linked, but just had not got around to registering it yet as I ran out of time while doing the week 2 exercises.
My challenge will be to stay on track with the tasks and not deviate off to read other things... I am hopeless for thinking "oooh that sounds interesting" and heading off in a different direction only to realise half an hour later that I have some how ended up looking at some random strangers holiday photos on flickr! (I started at the PHM blog, then via their new link to flickr commons and off I went!)
I am no stranger to blogging as I already read quite a few different blogs of people that write about my personal interests, one observation I have of blogs is that I am often amazed and amused at the way people use 'net speak' to get their message/opinion across..... it is often a totally different language to reading a book/newspaper or listening to the radio.
One of my regularly read blogs is the SMH travel blog - I will see if I can link it here: http://blogs.smh.com.au/travel/
bye for now.

Great to read that you are finding the course interesting and relevant.

That's a really good point about 'net speak'. I'm also just starting out with my own blog creation and when I first started typing I wasn't sure what 'language' was most suitable. Definitely not formal (although it depends on the content), more conversational is how I ended up going. Thanks for the link, it's great checking out how professional bloggers are going about it.
