Meeting Summary

No matter where you turn these days, it seems everyone is talking about blogging. If you’ve ever wanted to learn more about this new form of web content, the Nashville Palm Users Group has just what you’re looking for. This July, we’ll take a complete tour of the world of blogging, from soup-to-nuts.

Don’t know a single thing about the topic? Perfect! Already blogging and know a lot about the subject? Well, you’re STILL bound to learn something. We’re going to start from the very beginning of this new phenomena and show you how easy it is to begin your own blog. Then we’ll go even further and show you how you can blog directly from your Palm OS device and even create a photo blog. Some of the topics we’ll cover include:

Even though we’re primarily a Palm OS user group, this topic runs the gamut of technology - everything from desktops to handhelds to mobile phones. You may think that you’ll never publish your own blog, but there’s plenty to learn from the topic. We think you’ll be surprised to see just how big of an impact the technology of web logging is having on the Web. Learn today what you may be using tomorrow.
