So I just finished my podcast/vcast paper. In the paper I discussed podcasting and then I went on to discuss vcasting, which I thought was using skype, oovoo, or sightspeed. In my mind I was thinking it is a video cast of people conferencing with each other. Then I went and looked at the syllabus and saw that the paper was actually about podcast/vlog which vlog to me means a video log like the gentlemen who video logged his proposal. So now I am wondering if I have done the wrong assignment and should I do it over? It is hard for me to start over since I worked on this first paper for a few days and thought about it for even longer. Maybe Louie will like my rendition of the paper, or maybe he will have me do it over.
Another item about ning. I have been working with my ning and cannot figure out how to add links to the ning. The whole idea behind my ning is that teachers can add different websites that help teachers teach reading and writing. I wanted to have the contributors add their websites to the blog so I could use them as a resource, but how do you add links? Any help?

Hi Brenda-
I added links to the Ning by adding text boxes (go to "Manage" in the upper right hand corner, then click "features" about mid-way down on the left.). When you edit your text box, you can add links.
I also added links to my discussion threads in my groups. I can't remember off the top of my head how I did it, but you can try there too.
Brenda,
I think I also misunderstood what V-casting was, but it seems that he doesn't mind because I did fine on my paper. I like the layout of your blog and your ning, you are too hard on yourself. Aren't we all first timers at this Web 2.0 stuff anyway, it's a little stressful though I agree.
