Thailand has been busy adding widgets and making their blog very visual by inserting pictures into their posts.

Sierra Leone has done a great job on their sidebar. Lots of country information is readily available there.

After a second week of blogging, many of your sites are starting to come together. Several students have discovered how to download widgets from the internet making for some interesting home pages. Congratulations to the authors of the blogs of the week:

China – This group has chosen a nice simple theme that is easily customizable. Pages are accessible at the top of the page and there is even a congratulatory message from the President. For more information on the Voki widget, click here.

Pakistan – Another simple theme, the group has created a great Header image for the blog. Information is easy to find and the article summaries are well written.

After our first week of blogging, many of you have jumped right into the new medium. Despite some issues with site access in the labs, everyone has worked hard to problem solve and educate their group members. Here are 2 blogs that I would like to showcase:

Saudi Arabia – Resources and communication are very evident in this blog. The side bar displays several categories of links and the group is actively using the blog to share ideas and assignment information.

Bosnia- This group has chosen a theme with a customizable header (the header is the image at the top of the page). The have added a distinct flavor to their site and displayed a strong understanding of the Dashboard features in the process.
