Challenged in more ways than one?
3 August, 2007 — fmcleanWell Sue has challenged me again and I have taken up the challenge to take part in the 31 days to build a better blog that is from Problogger Darren Rowse. Now last time she challenged me to go without Google for a day I made it through so will be interesting to see how we both go. Seeing that Sue posts more often than I do I like her chances better than mine. I think we should make it interesting and have a prize for the winner mmmm what do we both love and always want I know chocolate. So how about it Sue ? The loser has to buy the winner a kilo of chocolate are you up for that?
Anyway back to the challenge so for 31 days I will have a set of tasks to complete or as Sue calls them homework. Sue also introduced me to Michelle Martin’s The Bamboo Blog and her posts on 31 Days to Build a Better Blog. I will be a couple of days behind by the time I start but am looking forward to the challengers that lie ahead.
I find it is always good to see someone’s take on things, even if I can’t see the merit of what they are saying I am willing to give it a try. I would never have had a blog or Wiki’s if this wasn’t the case. I am so new to blogs that I am sure I will learn a lot and then pass this information on to you and my students.
So I will take a day or too to read through the challenge before I start ( give me a break its Saturday tomorrow) but will get to it as soon as I can and will keep you posted.

The chocolate challenge has now really stepped up read more about it

You know I still can’t workout what you are meant to do in the 31 day challenge. Maybe Darren Rowse isn’t spelling it out clearly. I know you have to do things on certain days. But he could make it easier to find…
